Starkey’s Genesis Line of Digital Hearing Instruments

As the world’s leading custom hearing instrument manufacturer, Starkey Laboratories offers a comprehensive family of digital hearing solutions available with a wide variety of advanced signal processing features. All Starkey Genesis products feature exclusive Precision Audio Imaging (PAI) and Precision Directional Imaging (PDI) technologies.

PAI’s combination of capabilities incorporates Starkey’s proven compression technology, along with maximum levels of audibility and fidelity offering you more comfortable and consistent hearing in a variety of situations. PDI continuously monitors your sound environment and narrows the hearing instrument’s sound reception pattern when noise levels reach consistently higher volumes.

Axent II Digital Signal Processor
Axent is our premier digital technology, with an exclusive set of features unlike any other instrument available. Axent II’s new dynamic PDI algorithm automatically adapts the hearing instrument’s directional microphone to focus on the area in front of you, where most conversations take place. Indicator tones for low battery warning, memory switching and volume control settings increase your hearing comfort by making it easier to find the appropriate listening level.

Axent II’s patented digital algorithm also helps minimize and eliminate the onset of feedback, a common nemesis to other hearing instruments. Within its elaborate frequency channel network, the algorithm detects feedback before it becomes audible. It then reduces levels in just those specific channels, with no noticeable effect on perceived volume levels. Available in a complete range of sizes from BTE to CIC, Axent II’s wide dynamic range compression, noise management, feedback cancellation, and expansion capabilities make it an ideal solution for the most demanding hearing needs and environments.

Arista Digital Signal Processor
Arista offers a variety of value-enhanced features that improve your overall listening experience. User activated PDI technology improves hearing in difficult listening situations found in restaurants, parties and other loud gatherings. Adaptive noise management and multichannel expansion allow for crisp and clear sound quality in all types of listening environments. And feedback, a common problem with most digital instruments is virtually eliminated with Starkey’s adaptive feedback management algorithm.

Arista’s three wide dynamic range compression channels allow your hearing professional to specifically adjust the instrument’s frequency response to precisely match your hearing loss. Indicator tones for low battery warning, memory switching and volume control settings increase your hearing comfort by making it easier to find the appropriate listening level. Arista is available in all styles from the high frequency emphasis AristaLite BTE to all custom models, as well as the redesigned S13 BTE. Arista is appropriate for patients requiring advanced digital technology for a variety of listening environments.

Sequel Digital Signal Processor
Sequel offers digital fidelity with an increased frequency range to compensate for a variety of hearing losses. User activated PDI technology improves hearing in difficult listening situations found in restaurants, parties and other loud gatherings.  Expansion technology ensures that circuit and low-level environmental noises from ventilation systems and other household appliances do not interfere with the vital speech components critical for maximum audibility.  Indicator tones for low battery warning, memory switching and volume control settings increase your hearing comfort by making it easier to find the appropriate listening level. Available in all sizes from BTE to CIC for most types of impairment, Sequel is well suited for variable listening environments.

Endeavour Digital Signal Processor
Endeavour provides the value and sophistication of digital technology with an emphasis on simplicity. User activated PDI technology improves hearing in difficult listening situations found in restaurants, parties and other loud gatherings.  Expansion technology ensures that circuit and low-level environmental noises from ventilation systems and other household appliances do not interfere with the vital speech components critical for maximum audibility. Indicator tones for low battery warning, memory switching and volume control settings increase your hearing comfort by making it easier to find the appropriate listening level. Available in all sizes from BTE to CIC for most types of impairment, Endeavour is an effective solution for those with the most basic digital amplification requirements.

Genesis DX Series
Starkey’s Genesis DX non-programmable digital product line offers hearing aid wearers six flexible instruments appropriate for a variety of hearing losses. Precision digital signal processing and a restyled shell design combined with low distortion output compression limiting circuitry make DX instruments a highly reliable and effective choice.  Circuit choices include Discovery D Standard and Mid Frequency, Inteli D WDRC, Inteli D S-Amp, Inteli D High Frequency and Inteli D Power.  All products are available with a variety of custom configurations including telecoil options, directional microphone capabilities and wax protection systems.
