Unitron Discover 7 Hearing Aid

Unitron Discover 7 - Say goodbye to the status quo, and get ready to love the experience.

The Unitron Discover 7 is the latest, advanced technology in their range. The Discover claims to give the user the most natural sound possible using the 'SoundCore' technology which classifies each sound at the rate of normal hearing. The Discover provides stellar sound quality in a stylish and tailored fit hearing aid that will suit any preference.

Features of the Product

Below we are going to provide you with some of the features in the new Unitron Discover range that have made it a frontrunner in terms of technology for quality, clear hearing.

SoundCore

SoundCore is the Discover's intelligent processing system. It is made up of 4 different features. These 4 features make up SoundCore which gives the user unrivalled sound quality that is clear, crisp and sharp for sounds, as well as filtering the unwanted noises and providing automatic directionality so the user can focus on those sounds they want to hear.

Sound Nav 3.0

Sound Nav 3.0 described directly by Unitron is the building block of our SoundCore technology. It automatically identifies and classifies signals into seven distinct environments, four of them dedicated to conversations, blending them to match real life. The 6 different environments in the Discover 7 are as follows:

• Conversation in a small group

• Music

• Quiet

• Noise

• Conversation in quiet

• Conversation in noise

• Total streaming environments 2 which include MediaNav speech and MediaNav music

Sound Conductor

Sound Conductor uses information about the environment to dynamically balance three features to reduce unwanted and distracting background noise, providing excellent quality and comfort and making speech clearer and easier to follow.

• Speech enhancement increases the volume of voices, making it easier to hear people talking.

• Noise reduction dials down distracting background noise to make listening more comfortable.

• Directionality helps hearing instrument wearers know where sounds are coming from.

Spatial Awareness

Simply put, Spatial Awareness gets the hearing instruments out of the way, so patients truly know which direction speech and sounds are coming from. Using a 4-microphone strategy, this feature acoustically separate sounds so clients can more accurately perceive their source. This feature is essential in allowing the user to feel the environment they are in whilst been able to hear the sounds that matter to them.

Pinna Effect

Pinna Effect recreates the natural acoustics of the ear’s pinna, providing a much more true-to-life directionality, particularly in the high frequencies. This is unique to Unitron who have developed and mastered the Pinna Effect feature over time. Again, it all goes towards natural hearing for the user.

Rechargeability

The Unitron Discover comes with Unitron’s first built in Li-ion rechargeable technology that promises to give the user up to 24 hours of usage from a single charge and 7 hours of streaming. The recharging unit is a strong sturdy base and is also a combined drybox to clean and sterilise the hearing aid overnight whilst charging. The unit requires a charging cable and plug when travelling.

3 Hour Charge - 24 Hours usage (7 hours bluetooth streaming)

1.5 Hour Charge - 12-13 Hours usage (4 hours of bluetooth streaming)
