Phonak Exelia Art - The latest
premium range recently launched by Phonak, the Phonak Exelia Art is
a hearing instrument with every conceivable extra to give you
maximum benefit particularly in busier background noise
environments.
As part of its mission to give the
hard of hearing public access to all the activities that make up a
full life, Phonak have applied invaluable input from hearing aid
users and hearing care professionals to identify the three important
things that are key to maximum client benefit: performance, control
and connectivity.

So what feature does the Phonak Exelia Art utilise to deliver these
three key components?
SoundFlow Premium - SoundFlow continuously monitors the
environment around you and instantly adjusts the Exelia Art to the
changing environment for a seamless hearing experience.
SoundRecover this feature is THE breakthrough in enhancing
intelligibility. It compresses and shifts inaudible high frequencies
into adjacent areas with audible hearing.
VoiceZoom Directional microphones are the only proven tool
to improve speech understanding in noise. Each of Exelias 33
VoiceZoom channels automatically adapts to voice and noise for the
ultimate in speech clarity.
WhistleBlock Feedback (whistling) is one of the most common
annoyances of hearing aid wearers. WhistleBlock technology instantly
differentiates between true feedback and natural tones, allowing for
maximum hearing benefit without feedback interference.
NoiseBlock Processing Environmental noises like motors,
fans and engines can be quite uncomfortable. NoiseBlock Processing
effectively diminishes these troublesome sounds.
SoundRelax This feature takes noises such as clanging pots
and pans and slamming doors and provides an instant cushion
without interfering with speech to provide a more comfortable
listening environment.
EchoBlock This removes reverberant signals from a noisy or
quiet environment resulting in a clear comfortable signal. Phonak
pioneered this process and has refined it with Exelia Art.
Real Ear Sound - Using hearing aids can sometimes disturb
natural localisation, ie you can't really tell where sound is coming
from. Real Ear Sound uses frequency specific information to restore
natural sound perception.
QuickSync A convenient feature that allows you to control
both hearing aids quickly and discreetly with one touch. The hearing
aids communicate with each other and share data to ensure that
volume and program settings are always balanced.
MyPilot Remote Control As an option, you may wish to
control Exelia Art with a remote control. The MyPilot reads battery
power levels, allows for volume changes, program adjustments,
directional microphone changes and more.
iCom The iCom provides instant connectivity with the world
of technology. Bluetooth mobile phones, laptops, MP3 Players,
televisions, telephones and satellite navigation devices can all be
used with Exelia Art and the iCom option.
For the active person, there may be no other hearing aid on the
market that provides both unparalleled hearing
and wireless connection with todays digital world.
