Resound Nexia 9 Hearing Aids Overview

Introduction to Resound Nexia 9 Hearing Aids

Launched in February 2024, the Resound Nexia 9 hearing aids are the most advanced technology from Resound to date. These devices are designed to cater to individuals with mild to profound hearing loss while providing an incredibly natural listening experience. The Nexia 9 incorporates Organic Hearing technology, improving sound quality and connectivity, and is equipped for Bluetooth Auracast broadcast audio for a superior auditory experience.

The Nexia 9 is built to deliver premium connectivity alongside a natural sound experience, offering users the best in hearing support and convenience.

Key Features of Resound Nexia 9 Hearing Aids

• Environmental Optimiser II: This advanced feature not only adjusts the volume in response to different environments but also tailors adaptive noise reduction. This ensures that users can maintain a comfortable listening experience, even in environments with varying noise levels, offering a balanced approach to hearing comfort.
• DFS Ultra III: The DFS Ultra III technology helps to reduce feedback while maintaining sound amplification without compromising on sound quality. This prevents issues such as feedback or sudden drops in volume, which can occur with other hearing aids when they attempt to prevent feedback.
• 360 All-Around: This feature uses real-time data to assess your surroundings and adjusts the hearing aid’s settings to provide sound from all directions. This allows users to hear more naturally and focus on sounds in all directions.
• Front Focus: This feature works similarly to 360 All-Around, but with an added emphasis on sounds coming from the front. It helps users focus on conversations directly in front of them, improving speech comprehension even in noisy environments.
• Improved Speech Understanding: There is a 150% improvement in speech understanding in noisy settings and better handling of surrounding sound. This is thanks to the combination of narrow beamforming directionality for hearing in noise and omnidirectional listening to help users hear clearly across different settings.

When comparing the Resound Nexia 9 to the Nexia 7, there are key differences in features:

• Environmental Optimiser II in Nexia 9 (advanced noise reduction and adaptability) replaces the Environmental Optimiser in Nexia 7.
