Zon
Zōn: Where Art Meets Science
 Zōn is one of the best receiver-in-canal product available on the market today with its best-in-class features optimized by BluWave™ Signal Processing. This hearing aid has been designed to perform well in the most challenging listening situations—in a restaurant, driving in a car or listening to a child's voice.
Zōn is available in three technology levels. Each one, is designed to perform in specific listening environments. Depending on the nature of your listening needs, there is a Zōn hearing aid that's right for you.
Features
A Revolutionary Approach to Hearing Aid Technology
The new Zōn, with BluWave™ Signal Processing, outperforms all others in its class, providing more clarity, greater directionality, and better speech audibility in a variety of environments.
Active Feedback Intercept (AFI)*
The biggest problem hearing aid wearers experience is that annoying whistling called feedback. The most effective feedback cancellation system on the market today. AFI uses an entirely new method that effectively erases whistling, squealing, and other irritating feedback sounds.
Directional Speech Detector (DSD)
Chances are you can hear the voices that are directly in front of you when in quiet situations, but have trouble when the noise level increases, like while in a restaurant with family and friends. With this common complaint in mind, Zōn was designed to include technology called Directional Speech Detector, resulting in extraordinary directional performance and better understanding in noise.
Automatic Telephone Response
Anyone who wears hearing aids knows telephone conversations can sometime be difficult. With Automatic Telephone Response, Zōn virtually eliminates feedback while automatically adjusting for optimal communication on the telephone.
Acoustic Signature
With Acoustic Signature, patients experience a brand-new kind of environmental management. Because Starkey hearing solutions immediately identify and classify the statistical properties of different sound environments, switching is completely seamless.
Elegant Design
With its curved, elegant shape, cool finish, and sophisticated hair and skin-tone color palette, Zōn is the first hearing aid ever to bring together world-class technology and strikingly beautiful design.
Zōn also offers a full package of SMART FEATURES, including:
Voice Indicators
The option of using speech, with male or female voices, to alert you to low battery, memory, as well as others.
Self Check
Simply opening and closing the battery door three times runs a diagnostic check of the microphone, circuit and receiver.
Reminder
To help remind you of maintenance and return visits, we've included an audible follow-up reminder.

Aspect Xtra Hearing Aid
 Aspect Xtra combines two of amplified hearing's best ideas into one different, integrated system. Together, Aspect Xtra's open fit and digital technology offer an ideal blend of amplified and natural sound.
Aspect Xtra's soft, flexible earbud fits inside the ear canal. Its unique fin design provides a secure fit, yet keeps most of the sound passageway unobstructed.
This "open" fitting lets many sounds pass through naturally, without being amplified. In fact, a fully inserted earbud maintains as much as 70 percent of the canal's open volume and prevents the "plugged-up" feeling that first-time hearing aid wearers often experience.
As sounds reach the ear, Aspect Xtra's Precision Audio Imaging-based circuitry recognizes the exact frequencies needed to enhance your understanding. Its digital processor amplifies these signals, while automatically filtering out the unnecessary background sounds and eliminating the possibility of feedback.
Aspect's placement between the head and the top of the ear maximizes its sound reception capabilities and takes advantage of the outer ear's largest hiding space.
Unlike miniature BTEs , the tiny On-The-Ear ( OTE ) case, micro-thin tube and discreet earbud give Aspect Xtra an invisible appearance - comparable to today's smallest premium hearing aids. Hear better with confidence, knowing others will never see you're wearing Aspect.
Aspect Xtra Features:
- Exclusive, Lightweight On-The-Ear Design
- Instant fit earbud or Exact Fit custom earmold available
- Automatic feedback cancellation
- Automatic noise management
- Wide-band expansion
- Indicator tone for low batter
About Starkey
Starkey Laboratories got its start in 1967 when William Austin founded Professional Hearing Aid Service, an all-make hearing instrument repair service in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. After setting new standards for the way repairs were handled, Austin acquired Starkey Laboratories, a small earmold company, in 1971. With a mission to provide better hearing rather than just hearing aids, Austin merged the two businesses under the Starkey name, and eventually began making custom in-the-ear hearing aids with a then-revolutionary no-obligation trial and "worry-free" warranty.
Today, that trial period is not only common practice among manufacturers, it's a legal requirement in many US states. And Starkey Laboratories is the world's leading manufacturer of custom hearing instruments with 38 facilities in 23 countries throughout North America, Central America, Europe, Asia and Australia, and a workforce of over 4,000.
