Send to a FriendChoose the Style That's Best for You
Whether you're active and on the go, or living life at a more leisurely pace, there's an S Series hearing aid that fits with the way you live. Starkey offers sleek, stylish options that are nearly invisible when worn. From your hearing needs to aesthetic appeal, there are many factors your hearing care professional considers before recommending a particular hearing aid. Understanding the differences between hearing aid styles will help you and your hearing professional choose the instrument that is right for your needs.
Behind-The-Ear (BTE)
BTE instruments' technology is housed in a casing that rests behind the ear. A clear plastic tube then directs amplified sound into an earmold inside the ear canal.
Receiver-In-Canal (RIC)
The receiver-in-the-canal device is small, discreet, and incredibly quick to fit; perfect for many first-time wearers.
Receiver-In-Canal Absolute Power
(RIC AP)
The receiver-in-canal Absolute Power instrument combines a custom-formed earmold with the sleek, sophisticated receiver-in-canal instrument allowing people with even the most severe hearing loss to enjoy style without sacrificing power and performance.
Completely-In-Canal (CIC)
These devices fit completely in the canal. Only the head of a tiny plastic line—with which you insert or remove the instrument—shows above the canal.
In-The-Canal (ITC)
In-The-Canal instruments feature an earmold that fits down into the ear canal and a smaller portion that faces out into the outer ear.
In-The-Ear (ITE)
In-the-ear instruments house the technology components in a custom-formed earmold that fits within the outer portion of the ear.
