Living with hearing loss since childhood and working as an audiologist for over 15 years, Dr. Mandy Rounseville-Norgaard understands how quality hearing technology transforms daily life. The new Signia IX hearing aids represent significant progress in hearing aid technology, with both the Pure Charge&Go IX and Silk Charge&Go IX models bringing clear, natural sound to patients. At Sioux Falls Audiology Associates, patients reconnect with loved ones and stay engaged in their favorite activities through these advanced devices.

Pure Charge&Go IX: Design and Performance

The Pure Charge&Go IX combines discretion with power. Its ergonomic design ensures comfort during extended wear, while advanced sound processing provides exceptional clarity across different listening environments. This model works well for active individuals who need reliable performance without compromising on style or comfort.

Silk Charge&Go IX: Discrete Solution

For those prioritizing invisibility, the Silk Charge&Go IX fits completely in the ear canal. Despite its small size, it delivers powerful sound enhancement, making it an excellent choice for various listening situations where clarity and discretion are equally important.

Signia IX Features

Sound Processing and Clarity

The Pure Charge&Go IX and Silk Charge&Go IX incorporate precision sound processing technologies that make conversations and music more enjoyable. The advanced processing system adapts automatically to different environments, whether you're in a quiet room or a busy restaurant. This automatic adjustment means less manual changing of settings and more focus on what matters - participating in life's moments.

Real-World Benefits

Many of our patients tell us what matters most is being able to participate fully in family gatherings, follow conversations at restaurants, and enjoy music again. The Signia IX's sound processing system handles these challenging listening situations by focusing on speech while reducing background noise. When you're having coffee with friends or attending a community event, the hearing aids automatically adjust to help you stay part of the conversation.

Connectivity Features

Modern hearing aids need to work seamlessly with our everyday technology, and the Signia IX delivers on this front. Both models offer Bluetooth connectivity for direct audio streaming from smartphones and other devices. This wireless capability lets you stream phone calls, music, and other audio directly to your hearing aids without additional accessories.

Battery Life and Charging

One practical advantage of the Signia IX is its rechargeable battery system. The hearing aids provide reliable power throughout the day, including time spent streaming audio. This eliminates the need for regular battery changes and gives you confidence in your hearing aids' performance throughout your daily activities.

Daily Life with Signia IX

Our patients appreciate how these hearing aids integrate naturally into their routines. Whether you're watching TV, talking on the phone, or meeting friends at Falls Park, the Signia IX adapts to your environment. The rechargeable battery eliminates fumbling with tiny batteries, while the automatic program changes mean less time adjusting settings and more time enjoying life. For our patients who work in noisy environments or spend time with grandchildren, these hearing aids help them stay connected without feeling overwhelmed by sound.

Active Lifestyle Support

The Signia IX adapts to your movement and activities throughout the day. For our patients who enjoy walking the trails at Good Earth State Park or playing with grandchildren at Falls Park, the hearing aids automatically adjust based on your surroundings. The water-resistant design protects against light rain or perspiration during outdoor activities. When you're exercising at the gym or running errands around town, the secure fit ensures your hearing aids stay comfortable and in place.

Smart Home and Device Integration

Beyond phone connectivity, the Signia IX works with many everyday technologies. Stream audio directly from your smart TV for clearer dialogue during your favorite shows. When your doorbell rings or smart devices send alerts, hear them clearly through your hearing aids. The Signia app lets you create custom settings for different locations, like automatically adjusting when you arrive at church or your regular coffee shop.

Workplace Performance

Many of our patients maintain active professional lives, and the Signia IX supports various work environments. During video calls, stream the audio directly to your hearing aids for better clarity. In meetings, the directional microphones help you focus on speakers while reducing background noise from air conditioning or office equipment. For those who work in customer service or frequently talk on the phone, the hands-free calling feature makes communication effortless. The rechargeable battery easily lasts through a full workday, even with regular streaming and phone use.

Customization Through Technology

The Signia app plays a central role in personalizing your hearing experience. You can adjust settings on your smartphone, access tinnitus therapy features, and make real-time modifications based on your listening preferences. This level of control puts you in charge of your hearing experience while maintaining the professional programming we provide as your audiologists.

Personalized Programming Makes the Difference

Getting the most from any hearing aid requires proper programming and fitting by an experienced audiologist. Each person's hearing loss is unique, which is why we take time to understand your specific needs and lifestyle. Using Real Ear Measurement, we verify that your Signia IX hearing aids are providing the right amount of amplification across all frequencies. This scientific approach, combined with our expertise in fitting hearing aids, helps ensure you receive maximum benefit from these advanced devices.\
