Master difficult hearing situations around the clock

Even with latest-generation hearing instruments, speech intelligibility can be severely impaired in difficult listening situations. But the Phonak FM system restores the instrument user's ability to effortlessly engage in a conversation even in noisy surroundings.
The advantage in difficult hearing situations:
With a mobile wireless microphone, the speaker's voice is picked up directly at the source and transmitted to the hearing instruments as an FM signal. This optimizes hearing guality.

The Phonak FM system is also ideal when shopping, taking a walk, and on guided tours.

Watch TV while conversing or telephoning

For TV viewers, the Phonak FM system combines several advantages: it eliminates the need to turn up the volume and at the same time allows them to engage in a conversation, hear the phone ring, and clearly understand the caller's voice.

The advantage in watching TV and using the phone:
Superb sound quality based on FM signal transmission plus a unique automatic source selection feature that mutes the TV's sound when the telephone rings.

The Phonak FM system is also ideal for listening to music from a radio/CD player or a computer.

Lead discussions - understand everything and everyone better

For most hearing instrument users, it is difficult to simultaneously understand everyone during a discussion and an even greater challenge to act as a moderator. Instruments equipped with the Phonak FM system allow active participation in group discussions.

The advantage in discussion settings:
The user can understand more easily because the mobile microphone is positioned near the speaker to assure optimized speech intelligibility.

The Phonak FM system is also ideal at family get-togethers and lectures.

Important:

Please tell your hearingcare professional that your new hearing instrument should be compatible with the Phonak FM system.

Communicate more easily in noisy surroundings

It is often hard to understand speech in crowded settings. For hearing instrument users, this can become troublesome in situations where even people with normal hearing can no longer communicate without difficulty. The Phonak FM makes it easy to focus on one or several speakers.

The advantage in noisy surroundings:
The mobile microphone fades out annoying background noise; this significantly increases the audibility and intelligibility of individual voices.

The Phonak FM system is also ideal in cars, trains, and sidewalk cafes.

Hearing instruments are transformed into communica­tion systems

Hearing instruments pick up speech with built-in microphones. As the distance to the speaker increases, speech intelligibility becomes a problem for instrument users. This often leads to situations in which they cannot understand enough to actively participate in a discussion.

The Phonak FM system upgrades hearing instruments into powerful communication systems. A mobile wireless microphone that picks up voices and instantly transmits the signal to the miniaturized FM receivers at the hearing instruments substantially enhances hearing comfort.

Speech intelligibility is always optimized even if the distance between the speaker and the hearing instrument increases, because the microphone overcomes distance by radio transmission. For this reason, Phonak FM system users often understand better than people without a hearing loss.

In many situations: understand better than people with normal hearing

A hearing instrument that has been transformed into a highly effective communication system with a Phonak FM product offers maximized speech intelligibility. The voice signal is transmitted wirelessly from the source to a tiny receiver connected to the hearing instrument.

Greater quality of life thanks to the Phonak FM system

The Phonak FM system dramatically improves communication ability because speech understanding no longer requires full concentration. The instrument user can participate actively again in everyday social settings and experiences a significant enhancement of the quality of life.
