Frequently Asked Questions

- Behind-the-Ear (BTE): Worn behind the ear with a tube leading to the ear canal.

- In-the-Canal (ITC): Fits partially inside the ear canal.
- Completely-in-Canal (CIC): Small and fits completely inside the ear canal.
- Receiver-in-Canal (RIC): The receiver (speaker) sits inside the ear canal, while the rest of the device is worn behind the ear.
