ReSound Omnia 7 Hearing Aids

The Latest Made For iPhone & Made For Android Hearing Aid Platform

The Resound Omnia 7 hearing aids are the latest mid-range, Made For iPhone and Made For Android hearing aid technology from GN ReSound.

ReSound has delivered a new hearing aid platform that's available right now in Scotland. The Resound Omnia 7 hearing aids are the latest mid-range, Made For iPhone and Made For Android hearing aids. The new Omnia 7 range of hearing devices is the best that ReSound has to offer. They are packed with ReSound's latest technology to help you hear better.

Three Styles of RICs Initially

ReSound Omnia lineup

The ReSound Omnia 7 range will initially be available in three RIC (Receiver In Canal) styles, a rechargeable RIC that will offer an unbelievable 30 hours of use, a RIC 61 with a traditional size 312 battery, and a RIC 62 with a traditional size 13 battery. The devices, as you can see from the main picture are shaped just like their previous One platform offering. ReSound has now expanded the range with both BTEs and Custom hearing aids.

That's a brand new Mini RIC rechargeable, two BTEs and a choice of custom ITE devices:

  • NEW miniRIE – These miniature receiver-in-ear hearing aids are ReSound’s smallest rechargeable style with a gently curved shape that rests low on the ear for a more discreet fit without compromising on sound or comfort. Like all the other RICs it can be matched to your hair or complexion to maximise discreetness.
  • Custom Rechargeable – These hearing aids are designed to look like modern earbuds and offer a custom, comfortable fit, high-quality sound, and rechargeable batteries.
  • Completely-in-Canal (CIC) – These simple custom-designed hearing aids are so small it’s unlikely anyone will realize users are wearing them, and as they sit inside the ear canal, they’re protected from wind noise.
  • Behind-the-Ear (BTE) – These user-friendly hearing aids are small, powerful, rechargeable, and can be matched to your hair and complexion to maximise discreetness.

All except the CIC will connect to ReSound’s Smart3D App and feature Bluetooth streaming of audio and phone calls, with hands-free calling for Apple iOS devices.

Better Own Voice Perception

For new users especially, the suddenly changed perception of their voice when wearing hearing aids can be irksome at first but usually fades. The new system will work towards making it a much more natural perception for wearers.

A Microphone in The Receiver

ReSound Omnia Microphone and Receiver in Ear system

The Omnia 7 range will be able to use ReSound's innovative M&RIE receiver that was introduced with the One platform. ReSound believe that with a third microphone in the ear canal that they can make use of the more natural sound cues that can be picked up there. The outer ear plays a big part in our ability to localise sound allowing us to work out where the sound comes from. This plays a big part in our ability to ignore the sound that we are not interested in and to focus on the sound we are.

Natural

ReSound also mentions Organic Hearing, which means that they sound natural, feel natural and connect you to your world naturally. It seems that ReSound hearing aids have become more natural sounding with every new release if my customers are to be believed, so it will be interesting to see what some of them make of the Omnia. They also announced an interesting new feature that will be available on the App that they call Check My Fit.

Check My Fit

This feature will allow you to check the physical fit of your hearing aids, it's a pretty good idea because many new users are never sure if they have their hearing aids in their ears correctly. Having your aids properly in your ears is important, if they aren't in properly, you don't get the full benefit. Check My Fit should solve the uncertainty.

Made For iPhone, Made For Android

ReSound Smart App

The ReSound Omnia platform will offer connectivity options to both iOS and AndroidTM smartphones for streaming and hearing aid control. It will also offer hands-free calls on iPhones and iPads.

M&RIE

The new microphone and Receiver In Ear speaker delivers a more natural sound experience by allowing the hearing aids to use the natural sound cues in the ear canal. It allows you to better localise sound and delivers an even more natural sound experience.

All Access Directionality

All Access Directionality automatically adjusts the directional microphone patterns based on the sound environment so that you can hear what’s important and still monitor the sounds around you. In noisier situations, All Access Directionality uses a new binaural connection between the hearing aids to create a stronger, more focused beam for sounds in front, it delivers up to 2 dB better signal-to-noise ratio.

What That Means

This system should help to deliver a more normalised sound experience while still allowing you to hear the speech that you want to hear.

Environmental Optimizer I

This feature allows the hearing aids to work together to analyse the listening environment you are in. It then automatically adjusts the features and amplification to deliver the best experience for you. 

What That Means

Knowing what the sound situation around you accurately is really important, so this feature identifies the situation with high accuracy and then manages the feature set of the hearing aids to deliver the very best hearing for you. This feature and its accuracy is imperative for the function of the aids. Resound are quoting really high accuracy and our experience concurs. 

Noise Tracker II

This is a unique noise reduction system that works on the basis of spectral subtraction. It reduces unwanted noise without affecting the speech signal. 

What That Means

The really important bit here is that it seems to do what they are saying. It is excellent on any noise that is steady state (which means recurring similarly) like engine noise, background hum of any kind.

DFS Ultra III With Music Mode

A high precision feedback system that allows the cancellation of feedback with extreme accuracy. This new feedback control allows the use of the M&RIE receiver. The Music mode is a slower acting system which allows better handling of music.

What That Means

Feedback is probably one of the most annoying things for users. The feedback system allows the amplification that you need without causing that damned irritating whistling. Having a system which also has a music mode means that your appreciation of music will be better. Sometimes music can sound like feedback, a music mode allows the system a little more time to make sure it isn't and do nothing. That means less distortion for you. 

Resound Assist

Resound Assist will allow your provider to adjust your hearing aids remotely. That means if you want adjustments on the go, they can be provided without you having to attend the clinic. The system is really easy to use and is quite intuitive. This might not be for everyone, but this feature will be a godsend for the people who love it. It will allow them complete freedom , over their customer experience.

The App, Resound Smart 3D

The accompanying app also allows you personalise your hearing experience in a deeper way. It has been re-designed to be more intuitive and easier to use and it offers real control. Again, this might not be for everyone, but for those who want it, it will enrich their experience. Again, this has to be seen as an excellent thing.
