Unmatched output POWER




People with severe or profound hearing losses need consistently high levels of amplification and output. Many find that the power of their current hearing aids declines over a short period of time, resulting in poorer sound quality and reduced performance.

 

Are you disappointed with your current hearing aids because they lack sufficient power? If so, you should consider upgrading to SUMO.

 

The most powerful BTE available

SUMO offers more maximum power output (MPO) than any other super power BTE instrument. This is especially important for people with profound hearing loss.

 

Power where it’s needed – in the low frequencies

Prescribing maximum power is not always enough. For many people with severe or profound hearing losses the only remaining area of their hearing is found in the low frequencies. So that’s where SUMO can provide more power. The result is less distortion of your own voice and a more natural sound quality of other people’s voices.

Power when you need it – economy when you don’t

SUMO is extremely powerful – but only for those who need it. Otherwise, a lower output can be set, resulting in significantly lower battery consumption than other Super Power instruments at comparable output levels. The result - even better battery life and excellent performance.
