Breakthrough Spice technology features are now available to people with significant hearing loss
Stäfa, Switzerland (April 6, 2011) - Everything that made Naída the first choice for hundreds of thousands of power users has been empowered with the exclusive features of the Phonak Spice Generation technology. Furthermore signature features such as SoundRecover and WhistleBlock have been enhanced and are now more effective than ever. Naída S is available in three performance and price levels as well as two models (SP/UP), offering a broad product portfolio for people with significant hearing loss.
Highest level of audibility and power communication everywhere
For people with significant hearing loss, feedback cancellation and high frequency hearing are specially important. It is because of WhistleBlock and SoundRecover that the original Naída became the first choice for power hearing. Thanks to Spice technology, these features are further enhanced in the new Naída S to deliver exceptional feedback-free audibility to those who need it most. Enhanced breakthrough SoundRecover technology makes previously inaudible high frequency sounds audible again - thus fundamentally changing the expectation of what people with significant hearing loss can and cannot hear.
The all new and unique binaural directional features such as StereoZoom (focus on a single voice in a noisy crowd) or auto ZoomControl (automatically focuses on speech, wherever it comes from), enhance communication in even the most challenging environment. As listening environments change throughout the day, Naída S offers the comfort of automatic adaptation (SoundFlow) coupled with the personalized precision of manual control (FlexControl and FlexVolume).
More choices and wireless freedom
The Naída S product portfolio meets every power hearing requirement: It offers both the SuperPower (SP) and UltraPower (UP) models and is available in three performance and price levels. Only Phonak has a solution for every spectrum of significant hearing loss, lifestyle, budget and age. FM and Bluetooth connectivity open up the world of wireless connectivity to wearers with significant hearing loss.
"People with moderately-severe to profound hearing loss depend on our products and sophisticated technology the most. This is why we are proud to present the new Naída S: Thanks to our new Spice technology, Phonak power solutions have never been more versatile and high performing as now. We are convinced that your customers will be simply delighted with the new Naída S," says Alexander Zschokke, Acting CEO of Phonak.
More dependability in an esthetically appealing design
The housing of Naída S has a proven track record to withstand the test of time. With its robust WaterResistant housing, hundreds of thousands of users have enjoyed its dependability and freedom. But also cosmetics play a crucial role in the overall satisfaction of customers. Phonak is proud to introduce a world first, a Power SlimTube designed just for Naída S wearers. As of now, many power wearers with severe hearing loss will benefit from the advances in acoustic coupling design while minimizing gain and output loss.
