1. Starkey Xino: Offering Options to the Discreet
Hearing Aid Wearer
Starkey is an American hearing aid
company with a world-wide vision to
change the face of hearing aids as we
know it. The company has been working
diligently to offer smaller and better
technology to those with hearing loss.
For the past several years, Starkey has done a great job in this
endeavor, offering better sound quality, improved noise
reduction, less feedback and better connectivity to those with
hearing loss. The latest hearing aid from Starkey, called Xino,was
released in August 2011 and promises “something small that will
deliver big benefits.”Xino is a receiver-in-the-canal (RIC) hearing
aid and is Starkey’s smallest RIC yet.
It is the only RIC hearing aid using a 10A battery that offers a
push-button control, which acts as either a volume control or
memory selection. It also has a tcoil, which makes telephone
conversations easier and connection to personal listening systems
more attainable.
What Is a Reciever-In-the-Canal Hearing Aid?
Receiver-in-the-canal hearing aids are worn behind the ear. A
small tube carrying speaker wiring runs down the side of the ear
to the receiver (speaker) in the ear canal, which then delivers
sound to the ear.
This design sets it apart from other types of hearing aids because
it is discreet and allows for more power, allowing people with

2. severe hearing loss to wear a small hearing aid for the first time
without the worry of feedback. Starkey’s Xino offers what people
with hearing loss are looking for: options in a small package.
Xinoincludes Starkey’s new Spectral iQ feature, a smart solution
for people who have steeply sloping, high-frequency hearing loss,
which is commonly seen with noise exposure damage and
exposure to ototoxic (ear damaging) medications. Spectral iQ is
Starkey’s frequency lowering technology.
What is Frequency Lowering Technology?
Imagine playing a piano with keys missing for the high-pitched
notes. Trying to play a piece of music around those missing keys
will distort the music. But, if you played the same piece of music
in a lower key, it may sound a little different but you will hear all
the nuances of the music that the composer intended.
Frequency lowering technology works in the same way. It is
designed to improve the clarity of speech by identifying high-
frequency speech cues and replicating them in lower frequencies.
This makes the sound a little different but research says that
many listeners don’t recognize the change and if they do, they
become accustomed to the difference relatively quickly.
Xino also includes all of Starkey's incredible performance features
such as Voice iQ2, PureWave Feedback Eliminator and
HydraShield®2, Starkey’s proprietary moisture protection
technology designed to repel wax, oils and moisture.With its
discreet style and many options, the Starkey Xino promises to be
highly sought after and Starkey proves again that they are a
leader in hearing aid technology advancement.
