Hearing Aids - Older Superseded Technology

Here you will find a list of older technology that has been replaced by newer more advanced versions. Some hearing aid suppliers (particularly the national companies) will try to tell you they are supplying you with the latest technology at very low prices, when in fact they are selling 'old stock'.

There's nothing wrong with purchasing 'end of line' products if you know that is the case, however we take the view that you should at least be aware of this fact.

We are quite often asked by clients to replace lost or damaged hearing aids and in that particular scenario it is quite appropriate to replace like with like, however our view is that if you are new to hearing aids or looking to upgrade existing technology the best you can do is to pick the latest technology available within your budget and lifestyle considerations.

Find below a comprehensive list of superseded technology, manufacturer by manufacturer.
