All of Embrace Hearing’s aids offer premium technology, custom programming, and the most recent software and features. The challenge is to balance your budget with the different features offered by each “series” and “performance level”.

• Our A Series offers simplicity and affordability.
• Our X Series offers integrated direct Bluetooth connectivity to smart phones and other Bluetooth enabled devices, allowing for hands-free phone calls on Apple and Android phones.
• Our C Series fits completely into your ear canal so it is virtually invisible, offering the greatest discretion. Once you chose your “series”, you will choose a “performance level” that best meets the challenges of hearing environments you encounter regularly. Lower performance models perform extremely well in the home environment and other quiet locations. Higher performance levels have a greater number of programmable bands, more AutoSurround listening environments and LiveSpeechFocus for superior performance in challenging listening environments like restaurants and large group situations. Please don’t hesitate to call us for advice – we love talking to our customers!

Hearing aids only help if they are worn, so it is critical you choose a style that you are comfortable wearing all day long. While our ‘behind-the-ear’ A and X series are the most comfortable for most users, our ‘completely-in-canal’ C Series is almost invisible. The C-Series are often preferred by those who regularly wear hard-hats, hearing protection, stethoscopes, and large rimmed eye-glasses. For details, please see Completely-In-Canal Or Behind-The-Ear?

This is the number of sound frequency bands we use to program your hearing aids to the results of your hearing test. Up to a point, the greater the number of bands, the better the sound quality. The maximum number of bands you can benefit from is around 20. After that, your brain cannot detect a difference.

Our hearing aids serve the vast majority of hearing-loss issues, including severe and profound loss. We can ensure that our products are a good fit for your needs when you send us your hearing test results.

AutoSurround: Software that automatically identifies and adjusts to changes in your sound environment (e.g. From a quiet car to a noisy restaurant) so no manual adjustments are needed. Higher performance levels will automatically adjust to a greater number of environments.
LiveSpeachFocus: Technology to enable optimal speech understanding in noisy or group situations. The aids dynamically scan your listening environment to focus on the active speaker in your immediate vicinity. It is a feature on the highest performance levels of the A and X Series.
Tinnitus Manager: While most people with tinnitus (The perception of high pitch noise or ringing in your ears) get an immediate benefit by restoring the natural high frequencies with programmed hearing aids, there is more we can do. All of our hearing aids come with a tinnitus management program. This is not a cure but it can help alleviate tinnitus symptoms through the use of a self-adjustable 'white noise' sound in the background if the restoration of high frequency hearing through the use hearing aids does not significantly improves tinnitus symptoms.
Telecoil: A small coil found inside some hearing aids. The telecoil wirelessly picks up sound signals from a hearing loop system. Hearing loops can be found in some auditoriums, train stations, airports, places of worship, and theaters. All Embrace Hearing A-Series models and the rechargeable versions of the X-Series are equipped with telecoils.
BiCROS hearing aids are designed for people who with unaidable hearing loss in one ear but have some level of hearing on the other. You would wear hearing aids on both ears. A microphone picks up sounds from the weak ear and transmits it to wirelessly the ear with better hearing. All Embrace Hearing A and C Series models and the rechargeable versions of the X Series can be programmed for BiCROS hearing.

If you have a reliable evening routine, the convenience and environmental benefits of rechargeable hearing aids are clear. However, there are advantages to models with replaceable batteries which should be considered before committing to rechargeable models:

• If a replaceable battery dies, it can be replaced at any drug or grocery store world-wide and the hearing aid will resume normal function immediately. However, with rechargeables, if you forget to put your hearing aids in the charger at night, they must be charged for several hours before they can be used.
• If a replaceable battery dies, it can be replaced at any drug or grocery store world-wide and the hearing aid will resume normal function immediately. However, with rechargeables, if you forget to put your hearing aids in the charger at night, they must be charged for several hours before they can be used.
• While rechargeable batteries will last about 20 hours on a charge, replaceable batteries last 3-10 days depending on your hearing loss, the hearing aid model and level of streaming use.

With Bluetooth technology, it is possible to connect smart phones and other Bluetooth enabled devices to your hearing aids. With our X Series, which offers direct Bluetooth streaming, no special remotes or devices are needed to send stereo sound directly to your aids – and, better still, your aids will act as a microphone for your smart phone – allowing completely handsfree phone calls from any Apple or Android device! Your smart phone (Apple or Android) can also act as a remote for your aids with a free APP. Our A Series can also be used with Bluetooth enabled devices, but require the use of a Premium Bluetooth Remote ($299) to enable this functionality. At present, our C Series does not offer Bluetooth connection.
