In 2003 a new hearing aid was launched that began a new era in hearing care.
SeboTek Hearing Systems introduced the Pac Voice-Q, the first receiver-in-the-canal hearing aid. This product brought an entirely new design and fitting concept to the hearing aid industry and is now one of the fastest growing product styles around the world.
Recently they have improved upon their proven style and introduced the
SeboTek Voice-Q 800 Series, the next generation of
SeboTek receiver-in-the-canal hearing aids.
SeboTek Voice-Q 800 SeriesDurability and high-performance were two priorities in creating the Voice-Q Series and
SeboTek has delivered both. In a recent interview on AudiologyOnline (
www.AudiologyOnline.com) Mike Feeley, co-founder and executive VP of
SeboTek explained, If you look at any instrument that fits on or behind the ear, the components that are susceptible to sweat and moisture are the microphones, the switch (if there is one), and the battery contact area. We improved our moisture resistance in all of those areas in the 800 Series. The microphones have moisture resistant filters inside a replaceable microphone cover. If the hearing aid gets soiled or filled with moisture, rather than having to send the unit back to the factory to have it repaired, those covers can be easily and quickly replaced in the hearing care professionals office.
Also unique to the
SeboTek Voice-Q 800 series is Hybrid Coupling Technology, which allows for both an open fitting and sealed fitting for more severe hearing losses.
The Mini-Receiver coupling option provides an open-ear fit and feeling and is ideal for mild to moderate hearing losses. The Power Receiver coupling is designed to amp up the volume with a comfortable, fully sealed ultra soft silicone tip. This coupling option is ideal for consumers with moderate to severe hearing loss.
The SeboTek 800 Tech Specs- Automated noise reduction, eliminating noise so you can focus on the voice speaking to you. All done through the use of smart chips that listen and adjust your 800 without a thought.
