ReSound Hearing Aids
Who Is the Ideal patient for ReSound Hearing Aids?
ReSound Sensia™ is ideal for people with mild to profound hearing loss who want to stay active and connected yet struggle to follow conversations in restaurants, family gatherings, work meetings, or other noisy settings. It is especially well suited for those who value a discreet, comfortable hearing solution with modern connectivity and all-day battery life.
How Do ReSound Hearing Aids Help You Hear Better in Noise?
ReSound Sensia uses Intelligent All-Around to continuously sense the listening environment and automatically adjust when needed. Its four synchronized microphones help patients focus on the person in front of them simply by facing that speaker, while AI-powered DNN denoising helps keep speech clear and makes background noise less distracting. The result is clearer conversations with less listening effort.
Which ReSound Features Improve Everyday Quality of Life?
Patients appreciate the confidence of hearing more effortlessly throughout their day. ReSound Sensia automatically adapts as environments change, reducing the need to manually adjust settings. They also enjoy easy personalization through the ReSound Smart 3D™ app, along with Bluetooth® LE Audio and Auracast™ connectivity for streaming and access to broadcast audio in compatible public places.
Why Choose ReSound Hearing Aids?
ReSound Sensia is designed to prioritize the voice a patient wants to hear – not simply the loudest sound in the room. Its combination of accurate real-time sound-sensing and feature engagement, four-microphone beamforming and AI-powered noise reduction is tested, preferred, and proven best for hearing in noise. Patients can also choose from discreet, durable styles and benefit from modern connectivity and personalized support through the ReSound Smart 3D app.
Starkey Hearing Aids
Who Is the Ideal patient for Starkey Hearing Aids?
A motivated, relatively active adult with mild to severe hearing loss who is still highly engaged in life and wants hearing aids to perform well in difficult, real-world environments, rather than just making things louder. Our hearing aids are designed for individuals who struggle with background noise, are socially and professionally active, value premium technology, connectivity and accessibility, industry-leading reliability and durability, have meaningful expectations for sound quality, value discretion and comfort, and are committed to wearing their hearing aids.
How Do Starkey Hearing Aids Help You Hear Better in Noise?
Understanding speech in noisy environments remains one of the most common challenges for hearing aid users. Starkey’s advanced Speech in Noise system is designed to address this head-on by adapting on a channel-by-channel basis to ensure that only channels affected by noise are reduced — while maintaining the signals of interest. At the heart of this system is Starkey’s DNN-powered Speech Probability Predictor (SPP), which quickly and accurately distinguishes between speech of interest and competing speech noise, such as multi-talker babble. Comparing to the previous technology, the DNN SPP improves speech detection accuracy by 30%, enabling more precise sound management. Starkey’s Sound Manager delivers a more natural and effortless listening experience. Whether in a crowded restaurant or a busy meeting, hearing aid users can focus on the conversation without being overwhelmed.
Which Starkey Features Improve Everyday Quality of Life?
Over the past decade, we have built a hearing aid that isn’t just a hearing aid, but a lifestyle device. Starkey has been using AI in hearing aids since 2018. We released the world’s first hearing aid to incorporate sensor technology. This ushered in a new era of “smart hearing aids”, empowering hearing aid users with health tracking and fall detection within the hearing aids. Since then, we’ve added DNN-powered microphone directionality, always-on DNN, and a personalized AI Assistant within our My Starkey App. Our Edge Mode feature is one of the most popular features in the industry and automatically makes tailored sound adjustments to the listener’s environment and listening intent. In addition, patients choose Starkey because of our reliability and durability. Our rechargeable hearing aids are waterproof (up to 1m of water), and we offer the longest battery life in the industry.
Why Choose Starkey Hearing Aids?
Starkey is a family-owned, U.S.-based company founded in 1967. Our owner and founder, Bill Austin, still works with patients every day. Our Chief Technology Officer, Achin Bhowmik, is a licensed hearing aid provider. Our top people work directly with the end users of our technology. We don’t just build products. Our goal is to improve people’s lives and reconnect them with their world. We have always been a patient-first company, and our goal is to continue driving research, innovation, and competition that results in state-of-the-art technology and maximum patient satisfaction.

Widex and Signia Hearing Aids by WS Audiology
Who Is the Ideal patient for Widex or Signia Hearing Aids?
Everyone! As Audiologists, whether the patient has borderline hearing loss or severe hearing loss, our mission is to help others communicate with their loved ones again. Patients who report feeling isolated from conversations, whether it’s one-on-one or in groups, especially in noise, are great candidates for amplification. As a result, their quality of life improves, which matters most.
How Do Widex and Signia Hearing Aids Help You Hear Better in Noise?
At WS Audiology (WSA), we offer two premium hearing aid brands, Widex and Signia, each with a unique approach to delivering better hearing in challenging listening environments.
Both brands use advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help wearers focus on speech while reducing unwanted background noise. Rather than simply making sounds louder, our technology is trained to identify and prioritize the sounds that matter most, helping patients follow conversations more comfortably in restaurants, family gatherings, meetings, and other noisy situations.
We also recognize that hearing naturally is about more than speech understanding. That’s why our hearing aids are designed to preserve your voice quality and listening comfort, creating a more natural hearing experience throughout the day.
Our commitment to innovation is backed by extensive research demonstrating improved hearing performance in noise and high levels of patient satisfaction. By combining cutting-edge AI with sound philosophies tailored to different listening preferences, Widex and Signia provide solutions that help people stay connected and engaged in the moments that matter most.
At WSA, our goal is simple: to help patients hear confidently, communicate effortlessly, and enjoy life more fully, even in challenging listening environments.
Which Widex and Signia Features Improve Everyday Quality of Life?
While today’s hearing aids offer remarkable advancements in sound quality and speech understanding, many patients are especially excited about the convenience and connectivity features built into modern devices.
Widex and Signia hearing aids can connect directly to smartphones, tablets, and computers, letting users stream phone calls, music, videos, and virtual meetings right into their ears. This seamless connectivity helps patients stay connected to the people and activities they enjoy most.
Patients also appreciate greater control over their hearing experience through user-friendly smartphone apps. With just a few taps, they can adjust volume, focus on speech in noisy environments, personalize settings for different listening situations, and even receive AI-powered recommendations to optimize sound in real time.
These features provide more than convenience. They give patients confidence, independence, and the ability to actively participate in conversations, entertainment, and daily life with less effort.
By combining advanced hearing technology with intuitive connectivity and personalization tools, Widex and Signia help patients hear better, stay connected, and enjoy a more effortless listening experience every day.
Why Choose Widex or Signia Hearing Aids?
At WS Audiology (WSA), we understand that hearing is personal. Research shows that people have different sound preferences, and two well-fitted hearing aids can be experienced very differently by the same individual. That’s why we offer two premium hearing aid brands, Widex and Signia, each with a distinct sound philosophy designed to meet different listening preferences.
Some listeners prefer a richer, fuller, more natural sound experience, while others prefer enhanced contrast and greater speech focus. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, WSA empowers hearing care professionals to match patients with the listening experience that feels most comfortable and natural to them.
Through innovative tools such as SoundPreference.net, patients can explore different sound designs using real-life listening scenarios, helping guide a more personalized hearing solution. Research also shows that individual sound preference can significantly influence overall satisfaction with hearing aids.
We recently launched our Signia Multi-adaptive Xperience, MaX, powered by four deep neural networks that work together as a system intelligence. Instead of using AI to only reduce noise, Signia MaX analyzes the full sound environment-speech, background, and the patient’s own voice- adapting to every moment in real time. 97% of wearers hear better in noisy group conversations than key competitors when using Signia MaX! In November, we’ll launch our Widex Allure AI RIC!
At WSA, our goal is not just to fit hearing aids but to help each person find the hearing experience that’s right for them.
