If you're going to buy a hearing aid,
you need to understand the concept
of ‘Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR).

When choosing a hearing aid, have you ever considered the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)? This is a key indicator of how clearly a hearing aid can deliver sound. If you want to hear clearly in noisy environments, this is the feature to check!

Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) acts as a “sound focusing aid.” To better visualize it, think of it like the focus function on a camera. With a regular camera, the image may look messy and lack a clear focal point. But with a DSLR camera that has a focus function, you can capture the subject you want clearly. Similarly, a high SNR in a hearing aid helps you focus on the sounds you want to hear, even in noisy surroundings.

Low noise reduction focus | Focuses on all sounds without cutting surrounding noise

High noise reduction focus | Focuses on primary sounds while blurring surrounding noise

A hearing aid with a high SNR is like a DSLR camera that can blur the background, reducing surrounding noise and making important sounds “stand out” clearly. High-SNR hearing aids provide you with true “hearing freedom.”

With a high SNR, you can choose which sounds to focus on in complex environments. The hearing aid reduces background noise and amplifies important speech, shifting from “adapting to the environment” to “focusing on what you want.”

For example, when dining with your family in a busy restaurant with clattering dishes and conversations from nearby tables, a high-SNR hearing aid minimizes surrounding noise, allowing you to focus on your family’s voices effortlessly—without anyone needing to repeat themselves!

The SoundScape platform helps improve speech understanding by up to 22%. Signia’s tests show that hearing aids using the IX SoundScape platform have an SNR that is 1.4 dB higher than other brands. This improvement is equivalent to increasing speech comprehension by up to 22% compared to other hearing aids.

SRT50 Test: In noisy environments, this test measures the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) at which a listener can understand 50% of the sentences. The lower the SNR value, the better the user can hear and comprehend speech even in challenging noise conditions, indicating higher hearing aid performance.

This means that in the same noisy environment, the IX SoundScape hearing aid with a higher SNR can transform your experience from “barely hearing” to “clearly understanding,” turning surrounding noise from a “lawnmower” into just a “gentle fan hum.”

When choosing a hearing aid, don’t stop at simply “hearing”—aim for “hearing with understanding.” A high-SNR hearing aid acts like a directional antenna for sound, bringing important conversations that were previously drowned out by noise back within reach.

If you’re looking for a hearing aid with a high SNR and advanced noise reduction technology, the Signia Silk Charge&Go IX is the solution you shouldn’t overlook.

Signia Silk Charge&Go IX

The **Signia Silk Charge&Go IX** is a completely-in-canal (CIC) hearing aid.

It is designed to be extremely small, comfortable to wear, and virtually invisible to the naked eye—ideal for those who want privacy without compromising sound quality, and unlike typical CIC hearing aids, it does not require a custom ear mold.

The key feature of the Silk IX is its use of the IX SoundScape platform, which enhances speech clarity in noisy environments. With a higher SNR than standard hearing aids, users can accurately focus on important sounds—such as the voice of the person in front of them—while background noise is naturally reduced, avoiding the harshness often associated with conventional noise reduction systems.

Key Features

  • Ultra-small CIC design – Fits deep in the ear canal, almost invisible.
