Simply put, the DaVinci Precision Extreme Power ( PxP ) is the most powerful digital, directional, behind-the-ear ( BTE ) instrument available. Not just more power, but clean, clear digital amplification, which many experienced wearers perceive as a significant improvement over their previous analog or even digital aids.
The precision part of DaVinci PxP's digital sophistication comes from Starkey's proven Precision Audio Imaging ( PAI ) operating system. It features noise management, feedback cancellation and powerful programmable telephone coil technology.
DaVinci PxP offers better clarity and compatibility in a wider range of listening environments and on the telephone. To enhance understanding in the most difficult, noisy situations, PxP utilizes Starkey's exclusive Precision Directional Imaging ( PDI ). This innovative audio reception system helps emphasize sounds and conversations in front of you, while minimizing less important sounds to the side and behind you.
DaVinci Precision Super Power's ( PsP ) new design provides the flexibility to be fit as either a conventional super-power behind-the-ear ( BTE ) or as an open-ear instrument.
For people requiring more power with the latest digital features, DaVinci PsP's is fit with a regular earhook and a custom earmold. For people transitioning to amplification, PsP Open's soft earbud and tiny tubing prevent the "plugged-up" feeling that many first-time hearing aid wearers often experience.
DaVinci PsP Standard and Open both provide clear, digital amplification from Starkey's proven Precision Audio Imaging ( PAI ) operating system. PAI features noise management, feedback cancellation and three programmable memories.
To enhance understanding in all situations, DaVinci PsP Standard utilizes Starkey's exclusive Precision Directional Imaging ( PDI ). This innovative audio reception system automatically recognizes sounds and conversations in front of you, while minimizing less important sounds to the side and behind you.
Axent, Starkey's premier solution, incorporates third-generation Precision Audio Imaging ( PAI ) technology. Directionality for custom instruments and a host of automatic features provide exceptional performance for patients with the most demanding hearing needs.
Axent's four channels with eight independent bands allows for uncompromised fitting flexibility to match the widest variety of hearing loss configurations.
Dynamic Precision Directional Imaging ( PDI ) technology offers superior understanding in all types of difficult hearing environments. Available with BTE , ITE and ITC styles, PDI automatically narrows the instrument's sound reception area and reduces interference of sounds and conversations from the sides and rear.
Axent's PAI system continually monitors noise and feedback. Automatic noise management provides comfortable hearing in all listening situations without annoying background noise. Feedback cancellation also automatically identifies feedback and instantly eliminates it with no reduction in volume or clarity.
Starkey's Mesa instruments offer you an incredible value without reducing fitting flexibility. Mesa's Precision Frequency Resolution ( PFR ), directionality, noise management and feedback cancellation features are ideal for people who require more advanced digital capabilities.
Mesa's PFR frequency shaping allows the hearing professional to precisely program the instruments for more difficult hearing loss configurations.
Dynamic Precision Directional Imaging ( PDI ) technology offers good understanding in a variety of environments. Available with BTE , ITE and ITC styles, PDI automatically narrows the instrument's sound reception area and reduces interference of sounds and conversations from the sides and rear.
Mesa Precision Audio Imaging ( PAI ) system continually monitors noise and feedback.

Available in all styles from BTE to CIC , Cierra is an effective solution for those with the most basic amplification requirements.
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.
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.
