1 MORESOUND™

FULL SOUND IN ...

... RICHER SOUND OUT The preservation of true to life sound quality in hearing aids is of highest priority. WIDEX DREAM™ features True-Input Technology that maintains the fidelity of all sounds entering the hearing aid, providing wearers with a broader, deeper, usuable soundscape. Sound reproduced by WIDEX DREAM™ True-Input Technology is transparent, without any input handling artifacts, allowing for an almost true to life listening experience. Even high-level inputs are delivered artifact-free for a richer, fuller sound. WIDEX DREAM™ hearing aid wearers will enjoy rich, detailed sound quality, even in high intensity environments such as concerts, parties or sporting events. And test results confirm that the DREAM sound is superior.

IMPRESSIVE...

... SPEECH INTELLIGIBILITY Widex believes that all hearing aids should give wearers the ability to understand speech. However, speech understanding is often compromised in noisy environments. WIDEX DREAM™ is different. Our True-Input Technology enables true integrated signal processing. It ensures an artifact-free signal, so that all sound processing in DREAM can reach its full potential. And processing features like IE Speech Enhancer, HD Locator and compression systems are able to more effectively select the optimal setting for speech intelligibility.
