DREAM FEATURE AND PRODUCT
QUICK GUIDE
3 REASONS WHY DREAM sets a new standard in hearing aid performance. There are three excellent reasons to recommend DREAM to your clients:
1 MORESOUND DREAM gives wearers incredibly rich and detailed sound – even in noisy environments such as concerts or sports events. Testing shows wearers demonstrating a clear preference for True-Input Technology compared to other high performing technology.
2 MOREWORDS DREAM significantly improves speech intelligibility for wearers, particularly in noisy environments. In a recent trial, DREAM was shown to improve speech perception, with the vast majority of wearers experiencing better speech recognition in loud noise, in some cases as much as up to 21 percent.
3 MOREPERSONAL The Widex DREAM series is available in a variety of technology levels and styles to best fit the personal needs of each individual.
