A digital signal allows for advanced processing once the audio signal is converted. This allows for a greater range of sound filtering and noise reduction through sound compression and expansion techniques. Digital hearing aids also benefit from more advanced feedback reduction capabilities, making your listening experience more comfortable and enjoyable.
Your hearing aid can be supplemented with a range of new extra utilities to further fit your lifestyle.
