The Beltone Multi-Mic+
Designed to work seamlessly with Beltone Serene hearing aids, Multi-Mic+ helps people with hearing loss navigate noisy environments by amplifying the voices of one or more speakers while allowing listeners to hear other sounds around them.
The Multi-Mic+ is a portable microphone featuring Auracast, the next generation of hearing aid technology that allows users to hear news and entertainment anywhere. At the touch of a button, audio is streamed directly to the user’s Beltone Serene hearing aids, enabling clear, uninterrupted sound at the desired volume.
In addition, the Multi-Mic+ also supports telecoil, FM systems and DAI/direct audio input, offering versatile connectivity options for a seamless listening experience.
New Beltone Serene styling
Beltone is also expanding its Beltone Serene product range with the launch of its smallest wireless in-the-canal (ITC) hearing aid and the new CROS wireless behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing aid. The Beltone Serene ITC hearing aid uses conventional batteries and offers a discreet and comfortable hearing solution with excellent wireless connectivity for streaming audio from smartphones and accessories.
Additionally, the Beltone Serene CROS BTE hearing aids are rechargeable and offer another solution for individuals with single-sided deafness, complementing the previously released and well-received Beltone Serene CROS Receiver-in-Ear (RIE) model, the company said. Both models are Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) enabled, providing an enhanced listening experience and enabling access to Auracast.
“We are proud to be at the forefront of providing Auracast-enabled hearing aids and devices during this exciting time in hearing aid technology,” said David Molella, President of Beltone North America. “The advanced features of Beltone Serene hearing aids and the new Multi-Mic+ enable people with hearing loss to connect with the world around them in unprecedented ways. Our commitment to improving the lives of our patients through innovative solutions underscores our dedication to quality, convenience and connectivity.”
All Beltone Serene hearing aids are designed for all-day comfort and are weather and sweat resistant. They are also available in a wide range of colors to complement the wearer’s individual style, says Beltone. The new Beltone Multi-Mic+ as well as the Beltone Serene ITC and CROS BTE hearing aids are available now at Beltone locations nationwide in August 2024.
