Hearing Help for Audiophiles: Widex Moment
earing loss is a burden for anyone, but it’s especially distressful for audiophiles, who lose access to the pure sound and music they’ve spent their lives enjoying. Widex Moment hearing aids address the unique needs of audiophiles, for whom sound is not just a matter of loudness and speech intelligibility. The Moment hearing aids use Widex PureSound technology, which leverages two distinct signal pathways. According to the company, “The ‘classic’ Widex signal pathway is paired with a second ultra-fast signal pathway.” The Widex ZeroDelay Accelerator “reduces the processing delay between microphone and receiver to below 0.5 milliseconds, enabling the two sound signals to meet at virtually the same time in the eardrum,” thus ”eliminating the artificial sound quality and creating a more natural sound experience." Along with the company’s emphasis on sonic purity, the Moment hearing aids offer robust rechargeability and streaming. The Moment uses the smallest lithium-ion rechargeable receiver in channel on the market, and they are compatible with the SoundSense Learn smartphone app, which uses AI and machine learning to personalize the hearing experience and create programs based on the wearer’s typical environments. The Moment is available in 13 colors and six different
styles. Pricing varies from $1500 to $3000 per set, depending on where they are purchased
and how they are configured. |
