Lyric will vary in price depending on the providers you purchase from. Since this device incorporates advanced technology, you may find them more expensive than other hearing aids. The starting price of Lyric ranges from $3000 to $8000 a pair.

You may be worrying about other people noticing that you wear hearing aids. Perhaps you do not wish for your co-workers or others to know about your use of hearing aids or hearing loss. When wearing Lyric hearing aids, they will be virtually undetectable to anyone. With their deep insertion into the ear canal by a specialist, your hearing aids will be out of sight to those around you. This hearing aid has been in the market for years as an invisible hearing aid. 

Phonak Lyric hearing aids enhance natural sound. This is unlike other digital hearing aids, which aim at mimicking natural sounds. Phonak is a global hearing aid leader. They aim to manufacture hearing aids with a clear and natural sound. While traditional hearing aids collect sounds outside the ears, Lyric collects sound deep in the ear canal. When deep in the ear canal, Lyric helps in improving the directionality and localization of natural sounds.

The good news is that wearing Phonak Lyric hearing aids can help in relieving symptoms of tinnitus. If tinnitus has become a bother to you, Lyric can provide assistance. You don’t have to worry that your tinnitus condition will lead to hearing deprivation when you wear Lyric hearing aids. Additionally, Lyric hearing aids will prove much helpful if tinnitus bothers you at night. Since you can go to bed while still wearing Lyric, it will solve your tinnitus problem over time. The deep insertion will offer a unique approach to relieving tinnitus during the day and night. People wearing Lyric hearing aids expect their tinnitus symptoms to clear with time. However, Phonak is still looking thoroughly into this issue to ascertain whether it is always true that Lyric helps in relieving symptoms of tinnitus.

Since Phonak leads in manufacturing hearing aids globally, it aims to offer the best products to the market. Their new hearing aid – Lyric 4 – has been designed to the tastes and preferences of a world that is technologically advanced. Lyric 4 has come with even more benefits than Lyric 3. Some of these benefits are:

• Comfortable while wearing. The medial portion of Lyric 4 has been reduced by 0.33mm. This has made it more comfortable to fit deep into the ear canal. This design protects the delicate skin in the ear canal
• More reliable. Unlike Lyric 3, this new module is more reliable. Lyric 4 withstands the environment within the ear canal. Even with a challenging environment, Lyric 4 has a debris collector that helps prevent clogging and impacts of cerumen

High fitting success rate. Lyric 4 fitting rate is above 75%. Reducing its size has made it possible to fit in well in the ear canal. This is good news to people with smaller ear canals.

Not all people with hearing losses will enjoy using Lyric. While this might disappoint some people, there are good reasons why Lyric isn’t for everyone. Here is a list of reasons why you may not be able to use Phonak Lyric hearing aids.

• If you have short and narrow ear canals
• If your ear canals are highly sensitive
• If your ears produce heavy earwax (cerumen)
• If you are taking blood thinners
• If you have a history of certain medical condition related to your ears
• If you have to keep your head under the water while swimming or diving

You can consult a hearing aids specialist to learn whether or not you can use Phonak Lyric hearing aids.

Some downsides come with the use of Lyric hearing aids. These include:

• You have to make an annual subscription with your Lyric providers. Since these providers work independently, some of them have been charging more than they should.
• The collected debris in the ear canal destroys your hearing aids. You have to replace them once they have stopped working.
• Unlike other hearing aids, Lyric hearing aids don’t have Bluetooth connectivity. Therefore you cannot connect them to your Android or iPhone devices.
