Resound Nexia Hearing Aid Technology and New Features
360 All-Around – All Access Directionality automatically adjusts directional microphone patterns in the hearing aid to allow the users to hear what’s important and monitor the sounds around them.
Front Focus – Front Focus uses a powerful combined directional pattern from both hearing aids to focus on the person in front of the user. When you need extra help in very noisy environments, Front Focus improves speech undressing.
Natural Hearing – By adding a microphone in the ear canal as part of the RIE-style receiver module, Nexia takes advantage of the user’s unique ear shape to collect sound the way nature intended. This results in an immersive hearing experience with greater depth and a sense of spatial awareness.
Binaural Directionality II – This feature helps to improve speech understanding in noisy environments by using the two microphones in each hearing aid to separate speech from background noise.
Spatial Sense – This feature uses head movement and sound location information to improve sound quality and speech understanding.
Speech Enhancer – This feature helps improve the hearing aid’s clarity of speech by amplifying soft sounds and reducing noise.

Resound Nexia Hearing Aids Wireless Accessories
ReSound offers a range of wireless accessories to expand and improve your hearing experience. They are compatible with most ReSound aids and are effective and simple to set up and use.
The new ReSound TV streamer+, supporting Bluetooth® Auracast™, streams sound directly to your hearing aids at the desired volume.
Mini Remote Control – allows users to change programmes and volume.
ReSound Multi Mic is a small microphone that allows you to hear up to 25 meters away. It can be worn by the person you want to hear or placed on the table in a group of people. The sound is streamed directly to the hearing aids, and you will hear well even in heavy background noise. The Multi Mic also connects to loop and FM systems (an FM receiver is required) and has an input socket for streaming audio from any device with a headphones output.
ReSound Phone Clip lets you stream calls and music directly to your hearing aids from any Bluetooth-enabled phone. This improves the audibility of phone calls even in noisy environments, effectively giving you high-quality, hands-free calls.
ReSound TV Streamer 2 streams stereo sound directly from your TV, computer, tablet, radio, or stereo system to your hearing aids. This accessory effectively transforms your hearing aids into wireless headphones, giving you independent volume adjustment and clear sound up to 7 meters away. The ReSound TV Streamer 2 allows your friends and family to listen at their comfortable volume while you stream sound to your aids at your preferred level.
For those without the ReSound Smartphone App, a separate ReSound Remote Control allows you to adjust the volume of your aids, switch programs and mute the aids. The control can connect the aids to the ReSound Multi Mic and the ReSound TV Streamer 2 and adjust the sound when streaming. Remote controls are favoured by hearing aid users who find using the button controls on their aids fiddly and wish to make adjustments discreetly.
You may find ReSound Nexia rebranded by Amplifon and called Ampli-Energy R 5, Ampli-Energy R 4, Ampli-Energy R 3, Ampli On Range, Ampli Mini Range, Ampli Connect or Ampli Easy. Other companies, such as Specsavers and Boots Hearing Care, may offer ReSound Nexia rebranded under a different name. Sound Hearing advises you always to try to buy the original product that has not been rebranded. Rebranded products usually lock the software so only the retailer offering the rebranded product can program the hearing aid.
