Sonic Innovations Celebrates Company's First Receiver-In-Canal Hearing Aid

Sonic officials say the new Sonic Touch^TM hearing aid is smallest receiver-in-canal product available

Salt Lake City -Sonic Innovations, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNCI) will celebrate its first receiver-in-canal ("RIC") device, Sonic Touch^TM, at the Audiology NOW! Conference to be held in Dallas, Texas, April 2 through 4, 2009. Company officials say the Sonic Touch^TM product is the smallest receiver-in-canal product available in the market.

Sonic Touch^TM is offered at three technology levels and available in a choice of five base colors and 15 accent color clips. The three Sonic Touch^TM products are readily identified by the number of processing channels. Sonic Touch^TM 6 has six channels and two programs, Sonic Touch^TM 12 has 12 channels and three programs, and Sonic Touch^TM 24 has 24 channels, four programs and voice alerts. "The Sonic Touch^TM product represents a major step forward for Sonic Innovations and our industry as a whole. In addition to its sophisticated design, incredibly small size and ease of use features, Sonic Touch^TM has the best moisture resistance of any RIC product on the market," said Innovations CEO, Sam Westover.

Westover noted that the Sonic Touch^TM products incorporate many of the sound processing technologies present in Sonic Innovations' Velocity^TM series of hearing solutions. Touch provides natural sound quality, superior noise reduction and the finest directionality, driven by Sonic's unique DIRECTIONALfocus technology.
