In-the-ear hearing aids belong to the closed supply, ie the auditory canal is largely or completely closed. Volume control and program selection can be done via a remote control. To ensure that the devices fit perfectly, they are individually adapted to the ear. 

Modern hearing aids use the latest digital technology. They can be customized according to the extent of hearing loss and the individual's personal needs. This is vital, since everyone perceives hearing loss in a different way.

Receiver-in-the-canal (RIC) hearing aids—also referred to as receiver-in-the-ear (RITE) or canal receiver technology (CRT)—are smaller than standard BTE models, but are easy to maneuver and can still house a variety of features. Like standard BTEs, they can be worn comfortably behind the ear. However, unlike regular BTE hearing aids, the RIC’s loudspeaker or “receiver” is located outside the housing and positioned at the end of a thin earwire, placed near the ear drum. Since generated sound only has to travel a very short distance with lower transmission loss, less sound energy (and battery power) is required to produce a superior listening experience.

Ringing phones, street noises, birdsong: A good hearing aid will bring the world of sounds back to life. If you’ve gotten used to living with hearing difficulties, so many sensory impressions can be overwhelming at first. Don’t be put off. Give yourself plenty of time to adjust to your new hearing aid. This includes getting used to the physical sensation of having the device in your ear, apart from the actual sensation of hearing. One thing is certain: After a period of adjustment, you’ll never want to be without your hearing aid again!
