ReSound Hearing Aids

Originally founded as Danovox in 1943, the company’s first hearing aid was released in 1947. After Danavox was purchased by GN, the parent company began producing hearing aids with the ReSound trademark in 1984, releasing its first hearing aid that utilized digital processing in 1992.

As part of the GN Group, a leader in worldwide distribution of hearing aids in 80 countries, ReSound plays a lead role as the group’s innovation leader, conducting medical, professional and consumer audio solutions research in order to develop, manufacture and distribute med-tech, hearables and intelligent audio products.

Clear evidence of the company’s commitment to provide their hearing aid users with advanced hearing care solutions is reflected in ReSound’s guiding philosophy, “Rediscovering your hearing leads to a richer, more active and fulfilling lifestyle.”

Among ReSound’s leading innovations are open-standard digital chip technology and improved programming flexibility, which first became available in 2003 with the release of the ReSound AIR open fit design, which helped to provide more natural sound and limit the discomfort of a plugged ear canal common among hearing aids prior to its development.

ReSound Processing Technology

To keep nature and science in balance, ReSound developed the concept of Organic Hearing, which mimics how sounds are naturally collected and delivered to your brain, and it is designed to work with the unique anatomy of your ear.

Developed from the concept of Organic Hearing, technologies like Digital Feedback Suppression (DFS) to eliminate issues with feedback (howling) and distortion and Wide Dynamic Range Compression (WDRC), which allows users to select the sounds they want to hear and tone down the ones they don’t, help ReSound hearing aids to provide a whole, natural sound picture, allowing your hearing aids to fit your lifestyle.

ReSound Hearing Aids Features

Making adjustments to challenging and fluid listening environments is now easier than ever with ReSound hearing aids, which provide more natural sound, thanks to open-fit delivery that also eliminates wind noise and noise dampening technology that helps improve clarity in noisy environments or when there are multiple speakers present.

Quick charging for up to three days of hearing aid use is among ReSound’s most celebrated convenience features, while the capacity to link your hearing aids directly to iPhone, Android or other digital devices by using Bluetooth technology is another standard feature included with ReSound hearing aids.

The Remote Assist app also enhances the user’s hearing aid experience by facilitating communication with the manufacturer and/or your hearing care provider for troubleshooting, programming support or counselling without the need for an in-office appointment.
