AGX s3s Feature Summary AGX s3s products are available with and without wireless capabilities. AGX s3s product names contain an i to signify wireless technology i, i and i. IRIS Technology leverages a unique ear-to-ear communication protocol. Binaural Spatial Mapping* applies the combined speed and power of multiple dual-core platforms to achieve parallel processing benefits. This innovative protocol queries, analyzes, and maps the acoustic space surrounding the patient, applying the appropriate signal processing strategy for directionality and noise management. Voice iq 2 nearly doubles the noise reduction capability of our leading noise reduction and speech preservation system while still maintaining speech. Voice iq 2 : Instantly applies variable noise adaptation in all channels between each pause Has been proven to reduce listening effort and cognitive fatigue when used in tandem with InVision Directionality** Provides up to db of noise reduction JustTalk,* a mode on our new SurfLink Mobile, enables true hands-free phone conversations by turning the wearer s AGX s3s hearing aids into both the cell phone microphone and receiver. A new control switch gives users a simple, tactile way to control volume and change memories. Users will enjoy more dynamic and personalized sound with AGX s3s new ISO Compression. The 312 RICs features SnapFit receivers, which offer easier receiver connection and ensure greater stability. Unlike competing technologies that apply frequency compression broadly, our frequency lowering technology, Spectral iq, is designed to enhance real-time audibility by intelligently identifying high-frequency speech cues, then replicating them in lower frequencies. This allows AGX s3s to maintain important frequency relationships, retaining the sound quality that comes from harmonic distribution, while providing audibility for high-frequency speech cues for patients that may have previously been considered unaidable. Thanks to Self Learning, AGX s3s gradually and automatically learns patient volume control preferences in each active memory, which helps reduce the number of manual volume adjustments patients need to make. *Features only available when hearing aids are ordered with wireless functionality. ** Sarampalis, A., Kalluri, S., Edwards, B., Hafter, E. (09, October). Objective measures of listening effort: Effects of background noise and noise reduction. Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 52, 12-12. 6
Activated via SurfLink Remote, our iq Boost* feature allows patients to enable aggressive noise reduction while optimizing sound quality in extremely noisy situations. AGX s3s wouldn t be an AGX product without our PureWave Feedback Eliminator. This leading technology ensures wide fitting ranges and a fast response to more complex feedback. HydraShield 2 Omniphobic nano-coating provides unprecedented resistance against wax, oils and everyday moisture. Our Swap Fit fitting function allows you to transfer patient settings from their current AGX product to a new one enabling more time for fine-tuning and counseling. With Synchronized User Adjustments* patients can use a single hearing instrument to adjust volume or memory for the pair eliminating the need to manually change two instruments. Binaural Telephone Mode* places the phone-side hearing aid in Automatic Telephone Response or Telecoil mode while attenuating the off-side hearing aid. InVision Directionality in AGX s3s hearing aids together with Voice iq 2, our leading directional system is designed to enhance speech audibility, even in complex listening environments. Voice Indicators alert your patients to the status of their hearing aid, low battery, memory and telephone modes in their choice of male or female voices in a wide variety of languages. Automatic Telephone Solutions (ATS) automatically detects telephone use and adjusts to the optimal acoustic frequency response for telephone listening.

THE ORIGINAL IIC 28
AGX s3s Imitated but never duplicated, our AGX ssl isn t just the world s first ever custom-fit invisible-in-the-canal (IIC) hearing aid it s also the most popular. Invisible solutions are a proven draw for new patients. Now available in three technology levels, AGX ssl gives you and your patients more options to choose from than ever before. When it comes to invisible custom hearing aids, AGX ssl is the benchmark by which all other IICs are judged.

AGX s3s AGX swi AGX ssl Feature Summary Voice iq 2 nearly doubles the noise reduction capability of our leading noise reduction and speech preservation system while still maintaining speech. Voice iq 2 : Instantly applies variable noise adaptation in all channels between each pause Provides up to db of noise reduction Unlike competing technologies that apply frequency compression broadly, our frequency audibility technology, Spectral iq, is designed to enhance real-time audibility by intelligently identifying high-frequency speech cues, then replicating them in lower frequencies. This allows AGX ssl to maintain important frequency relationships, retaining the sound quality that comes from harmonic distribution, while providing audibility for high-frequency speech cues for patients that may have previously been considered unaidable. AGXssl SURFLINK AGX sto /AGX sig AGX ssl Accessories DEEP CANAL INSTRUMENTS AGX ssl wouldn t be an AGX product without our PureWave Feedback Eliminator. This leading technology ensures wide fitting ranges and a fast response to more complex feedback. Voice Indicators alert your patients to the status of their hearing aid, low battery, memory and telephone modes in their choice of male or female voices in a wide variety of languages. Our Swap Fit fitting function allows you to transfer patient settings from their current AGX product to a new one enabling more time for fine-tuning and counseling.

Measurement Conditions and Recommendations The data for AGX hearing instruments are obtained and performance is expressed according to ANSI S3.22 (03), ANSI C63.19 (07), IEC 118-7 (05) and IEC 118-0 (1983) with Amendment 1 (1994-01). The Starkey proprietary Real Time Analyzer and the Starkey Automated Design Verification Test System comprise the basic test equipment. Data may be subject to change with product refinement. Because of the adaptive signal processing capabilities of AGX hearing instruments, the hearing instrument must be set to test mode to compare the actual performance of the hearing instrument with these specifications. AGX hearing instruments may be set to test mode with Inspire by reading the hearing aid and selecting the Hearing Aid Test screen from the menu on the left side of the Inspire window, then selecting the Full on Gain button. *All trademarks or trade names are properties of their respective owners. 46
