Telecoil Compatibility
The Nexia 62’s telecoil turns your hearing aid into a direct receiver for any loop-equipped venue. Instead of using the aid’s microphones to pick up sound in a noisy room, the telecoil programme connects wirelessly to the venue’s amplification system. This means you hear the speaker’s voice or performance audio straight from the source, with far less background noise than you’d get through the standard setting.
Switching to telecoil is straightforward. You or your audiologist assign a “T” programme in the ReSound Smart 3D™ app or directly on the aid’s rocker switch. Once you arrive at a church, theatre or cinema fitted with an induction loop, simply select that programme. The aid then picks up the magnetic signal from the loop wire under the floor or seating, so voices and music come through clearly and at the right volume for your hearing profile.
Loop systems remain the most common public-audio solution in many community and cultural venues. While Bluetooth broadcast is growing, it’s often limited to newer theatres or specialised conference centres. Telecoil, by contrast, works in thousands of existing loop installations, from town halls to airport lounges, without draining your battery excessively or needing extra accessories. You just walk into the space, switch programmes and the sound feeds in.
Because the telecoil relies on electromagnetic induction rather than radio frequencies, it’s remarkably reliable and immune to common wireless dropouts. You don’t need to pair or re-pair devices, and there’s no app to configure on the spot. For anyone who attends regular services, concerts or meetings in loop-equipped locations, the Nexia 62’s telecoil makes every outing simpler and more engaging—no fumbling with dongles or worrying about phone compatibility.
Battery Life
The Nexia 62 steps up to a larger 13-size zinc-air battery (around 310 mAh), stretching run-time to approximately 260 hours, or eleven days of typical use. That extra capacity is perfect for frequent travellers, shift workers or anyone who prefers minimal battery changes. Despite its greater power reserve, the RIE 13 design remains sleek and discreet behind the ear.
Bluetooth LE Audio + Auracast Support
ReSound Nexia hearing aids are among the first to support Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) Audio and Auracast™, marking a significant advancement in wireless connectivity. Bluetooth LE Audio offers high-quality audio streaming with lower power consumption, extending battery life while maintaining excellent sound fidelity. This ensures that users can enjoy prolonged streaming of music, calls, and other audio content without frequent recharging .
Auracast™ introduces a new dimension to public audio broadcasting by allowing hearing aids to connect directly to audio streams in public venues equipped with Auracast transmitters. This includes places like airports, theaters, and conference centers, where users can tap into live audio feeds for announcements or performances, enhancing accessibility and engagement in communal settings.
These connectivity features are available across all ReSound Nexia technology levels (NX9, NX7, NX5) and are supported in all device types, including microRIE, RIE 312, and RIE 13. The integration of Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast™ positions ReSound Nexia as a future-ready solution, catering to the evolving needs of users in an increasingly connected world.
Noise Tracker II & Impulse Noise Reduction
Noise Tracker II is an advanced noise reduction system in ReSound Nexia hearing aids that employs spectral subtraction to minimize background noise without compromising speech clarity. By analyzing the incoming sound signal, the system distinguishes between speech and noise, effectively reducing unwanted ambient sounds while preserving the integrity of speech signals. This enhances listening comfort in various environments, from quiet settings to noisy gatherings .
The feature offers different levels of noise reduction based on the technology level: NX9 provides five settings, NX7 offers three, and NX5 includes two. This allows for personalized adjustments to match the user’s specific listening preferences and environments. By tailoring the noise reduction intensity, users can achieve an optimal balance between comfort and awareness of their surroundings.
Tinnitus Sound Generator
The Tinnitus Sound Generator (TSG) in ReSound Nexia hearing aids offers a range of customizable sound therapy options to alleviate the symptoms of tinnitus. Users can choose from various masking sounds, including white noise and nature-inspired sounds like ocean waves or soft rain, to distract from the perception of tinnitus and promote relaxation .
TSG settings can be personalized through the ReSound Smart 3D app or by a hearing care professional, allowing adjustments to the volume, frequency, and type of masking sound to suit individual preferences and tinnitus characteristics. This personalized approach enhances the effectiveness of tinnitus management and supports overall well-being.
The TSG feature is available across all ReSound Nexia technology levels (NX9, NX7, NX5) and device types, including microRIE, RIE 312, and RIE 13. By integrating tinnitus management into the hearing aid, users benefit from a comprehensive solution that addresses both hearing loss and tinnitus symptoms in a single device.
FAQ's
How do hearing aids work?
Hearing aids work by picking up sound through a microphone, amplifying the sound via an internal amplifier, and then delivering the sound to the ear through a speaker. Modern hearing aids also have advanced features to reduce background noise and focus on speech clarity.
What types of hearing aids are available?
- There are several types of hearing aids, including:
- Behind-the-Ear (BTE): Worn behind the ear with a tube leading to the ear canal.
- In-the-Ear (ITE): Worn inside the outer ear, covering the entire ear.
- 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.
How do I know which hearing aid is right for me?
The type of hearing aid that is right for you depends on factors such as the severity of your hearing loss, lifestyle, and personal preferences. An audiologist can assess your hearing loss and help recommend the most suitable hearing aid based on your needs.
Are hearing aids covered by insurance?
Coverage for hearing aids varies by insurance provider and plan. Some health insurance policies may cover the cost of hearing aids, while others may offer partial reimbursement. It’s important to check with your insurance provider for specific details on coverage.
Can hearing aids connect to other devices?
Yes, many modern hearing aids offer Bluetooth connectivity, allowing them to pair with smartphones, televisions, and other devices for hands-free communication or audio streaming. You can adjust settings and control the volume via smartphone apps or remotes.
How do I clean and maintain my hearing aid?
To maintain your hearing aid, clean it regularly using a soft cloth or a hearing aid brush to remove dirt and wax buildup. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals. You should also store your hearing aid in a dry place when not in use to prevent moisture damage.
