Phonak Virto V70-10

The V70 is an advanced hearing aid manufactured by Phonak incorporating their processing chip (Venture). It has 16 channels, advanced noise reduction (NoiseBlock) and wind noise reduction (WindBlock). The V70 additionally has 'Real Ear Sound' that mimics how the real-ear picks up certain frequencies of sound from all around you and others directly in front of you to provide the wearer with better sound quality, better hearing in noise and spatial (3D) awareness of your listening environment. The V70 also has 'SoundRecover' which helps high frequency sounds to be heard and processed effectively by the wearer if they have a severe/profound high frequency hearing loss. It is accomplished by compressing high frequency sounds into a lower frequency range where the wearer's hearing loss is less severe. Importantly, SoundRecover only performs this at the high frequencies, leaving the lower frequencies untouched. The V70 also has 'SoundRelax' which quickly reduces sudden and spontaneous loud sounds that may become uncomfortable for the wearer. Furthermore, the V70 can classify and adapt in 4 listening environment (SoundFlow) and learn the wearers preferred sound level in each environment over a period of time and apply it automatically (User Preference Learning). Additionally, the V70 can be programmed to gradually increase in sound level over a specified period of time to allow new users of hearing aids the opportunity to adjust and adapt (auto Acclimatization). The V70 also uses the latest feedback algorithm (WhistleBlock) to help reduce annoying whistling from your hearing aids.
