Comfort

Beyond Pro
4.0AVERAGE

I found Beyond Pro fairly comfortable in spite of their larger body size. Be sure to test various ear tips to find optimal comfort and hearing benefit. You may want to try the included tulip domes as the default closed domes plug your ear significantly.

Beyond have a more modern receiver-in-canal design, although the body size is larger than many other hearing aids. While this should not effect comfort much, it may make them more noticeable based on your ear size and hairstyle.

PhoneNow™PhoneNow™PhoneNow is a feature that automatically switches the hearing instrument to a phone program. If there is no telecoil in the hearing instrument, an acoustic phone program with a frequency response optimized for use with the phone is selected. If the hearing instrument also contains a telecoil, PhoneNow can be programmed to switch to inductive transmission of the phone signal through the telecoil. Regardless of the presence or absence of a telecoil in the hearing instrument, PhoneNow is activated through a small magnet that is affixed to the phone receiver.

Low Frequency Boost: UltimateLow Frequency BoostUP receiver only
DirectionalityDirectionalityDepending on the types and number of microphones a hearing aid has, the hearing aid may be able to boost sounds from specific directions (by reducing sounds from other directions). This can be helpful to focus on a speaker directly in front of the hearing aid user, as well as to give the user information about where different sounds are coming from.

It is the engine that enables us to provide all the benefits of directionality while maintaining natural-sounding voices.Synchronized SoftSwitching™Synchronized SoftSwitching™SoftSwitching (synchronized between ears) uses sound level and speech detection algorithms to decide when directionality is likely to be advantageous in a certain listening environment. It also offers the same four selections of MultiScope beamwidth settings: the default AutoScope, Narrow, Medium and Wide. The SoftSwitching mode differs from MultiScope Adaptive Directionality in that it uses slower transitions between directional settings and the omnidirectional setting, which is sometimes more comfortable and preferable among certain hearing aid users.

This results in excellent feedback cancellation performance without creating disturbing sound quality artifacts.Music Mode™Music Mode™The Music Mode feature in DFS Ultra II controls feedback while maintaining a more accurate representation of music. It provides excellent sound quality without tonal artifacts for hearing aid users who enjoy or play music, giving users a clearer, richer distortion-free music experience.

NoiseTracker™ II: UltimateNoiseTracker™ IINoiseTracker II uses a technology called spectral subtraction. Spectral subtraction works by subtracting the short-term noise spectrum from the signal, leaving only the speech portion behind ... ReSound’s NoiseTracker II is able to use spectral subtraction successfully because the Environmental Classifier has identified speech and noise so precisely.
Phone Ear FocusPhone Ear FocusWhen on a phone call, some hearing aids can focus amplification on the phone ear and reduce amplification in the non-phone ear.

Comfort Phone™Comfort Phone™Comfort Phone utilizes the bilateral wireless synchronization between hearing instruments to identify the “phone ear” and the “non-phone ear.” The amplification for the non-phone ear is then attenuated by 6 dB.

WARP compression: 17WARP compressionFrequency Warping is a technique to map the frequency analysis directly to a logarithmic scaling. By using appropriate warping parameters, we get a scaling that is very close to models of the critical bands of the human auditory system.
Wind Noise ReductionWind Noise ReductionAs wind blows against the microphones of hearing aids, unpleasant noise may be generated. Some hearing aids have the ability to recognize this wind noise and reduce its level. Such reductions may also affect the audibility of desired sounds, like speech.
Yes
Wind Guard: UltimateWind GuardWhen no wind noise is found, the hearing aid constantly updates and stores the sound input levels in each Warp band. Then, when wind is present, WindGuard calculates the amount of gain reduction needed to return to the stored level of the specific bands affected by wind noise.
