“As a musician hearing was a major part of my livelihood. As my hearing loss progressed,
hearing aids just couldn’t do enough, so I lost something very important.
When I got HiResolution, my audiologist put on a Beethoven CD. When I heard it, I said
That’s it! Wow! It sounds perfect!
When I got home, I got my guitar out and away I went. It sounded right.”
—John, musician, implanted at age 50
| "I keep going into my back garden just to listen to a territorial blackbird that doesn’t seem to stop singing. It’s great." — Adult upgraded from Auria to Harmony with HiRes 120 "I don’t think I’ve heard those high sounds for so long." — Adult upgraded from Auria to Harmony with HiRes 120 "I can now better discuss with my friend in a restaurant." —Teenager upgraded from Auria to Harmony with HiRes120 "I can hear sounds more distinctly, I can hear the difference between a diesel and petrol engine, water running in the sink has more dimensions, I can hear the separate sections of the choir. Going bilateral gave a spaciousness to my sound: switching to Harmony / HiRes120 gave me much more detail." — Bilateral user upgraded to Harmony/HiRes120 |
