In the decades since, ReSound has grown to become one of the leading hearing aid providers in the world, supplying its innovating hearing solutions to more than 80 countries around the world. ReSound pioneers intelligent hearing technology while remaining focused on creating an extensive portfolio of quality hearing products that enable hearing aid users to stay connected and engaged with who and what is most important to them.

As ReSound continues to expand its already extensive product portfolio, the company introduced the LiNX 3D hearing aid range designed for people with mild to severe hearing loss. The LiNX 3D is built off of an entirely new chipset that is much more powerful than the platform it replaces. With binaural directionality and spatial sense technology, hearing aid users can enjoy a far more natural and comfortable listening environment. The technology allows you to focus in on specific sounds that you want to hear, but without blocking out the rest of your surroundings.

The LiNX 3D hearing aids feature three models which each vary in performance and technology. These are the LiNX 3D 9, LiNX 3D 7, and the ReSound LiNX 3D 5 hearing aids, which is the lowest performance level out of the three models, but still considered to be a mid-range hearing aid. The ReSound LiNX comes in a full range of colours, from subtle and discreet colours to bright and bold options.

Many people experience both hearing loss and tinnitus (ringing or buzzing in the ears). The LiNX 3D hearing aids feature advanced tinnitus therapy that delivers soothing sound therapy to help alleviate symptoms of tinnitus while also compensating for your hearing loss.

The LiNX 3D comes with features designed to enhance your hearing and boost your hearing aid experience, for example:

• iSolate nanotech coating: High-tech coating to protect your hearing aids from water, dust and earwax
• Smart 3D app: Lets you customise your hearing aid settings, monitor the status of your battery and even find your misplaced hearing aids
• Binaural Directionality III: Lets you focus in on the sounds that matter to you while still being able to keep in touch with what’s going on in your environment
• Spatial Sense: Enables you to decipher where different sounds are coming from so you can enjoy the best-possible sound quality that feels natural
• Binaural Environmental Optimizer II: Provides seamless, optimal sound quality combined with listening comfort even as you change sound environments
• Noise Tracker II: Makes challenging and noisy environments feel comfortable without having to compromise on speech understanding
• DFS Ultra II With Music Mode: Listening to your music is clear, comfortable and distortion-free
• Tinnitus Sound Generator: Provides soothing background sounds to distract users from the effects of tinnitus
