When it comes to selecting the perfect hearing aid, one of the most recommended and
user-friendly styles is the RIC (Receiver-in-Canal) hearing aid. As an audiologist at Soft Hear,
I’ve seen firsthand how RIC hearing aids have transformed lives – from first-time users to long-time wearers looking for an upgrade.
This blog post is part of my mission to spread awareness about the advantages of RIC hearing aids and how Soft Hear can help you find the ideal fit tailored to your unique hearing needs. We offer top-quality devices from leading brands like Signia, Phonak, GN ReSound, Beltone, Starkey, and Widex – all under one roof!
1. Edge AI from Starkey – Super AI in Your Ears
Starkey’s Edge AI is a game-changer. This Super AI-powered hearing aid can optimize sound in real-time, improve speech clarity, and even detect falls or track brain and body activity. It’s like having a smart assistant built into your hearing aid.
2. Variety of Brands, Styles, and Features
At Soft Hear, we carry RIC hearing aids from trusted global brands including:
- Signia
- Phonak
- GN ReSound
- Beltone
- Starkey (featuring Edge AI)
- Widex
Whether you’re looking for rechargeability, tinnitus support, or smartphone streaming, we have options that suit every lifestyle and budget.
3. Bluetooth and Smartphone Connectivity
RIC hearing aids are Bluetooth-enabled, letting you stream calls, music, or even YouTube videos directly into your ears. You can also use a smartphone app to control volume and programs discreetly.
4. Discreet and Virtually Invisible
The sleek design of RIC hearing aids makes them barely noticeable. A thin wire leads into the ear canal, keeping the hearing aid hidden behind the ear. Perfect for those who want to function without drawing attention.
5. Lightweight and Comfortable
Because the receiver sits inside the ear and not in the casing behind it, RIC devices are
lightweight and offer a more balanced fit. You might even forget you’re wearing them!
6. Easy to Handle and Maintain
RIC hearing aids are user-friendly—from cleaning to battery changes. They’re ideal even for seniors or people with dexterity issues.
7. Portable Charging with Powerbank Cases
Modern rechargeable RIC hearing aids come with smart portable chargers—many of which
double up as powerbanks. You can charge your hearing aids anytime, anywhere.
8. Advanced MicroRIC Options
Want something even more discreet? MicroRICs are even smaller than traditional RICs but still offer top-tier sound quality and features.
9. Superior Sound Quality with Directional Microphones
RIC hearing aids use adaptive directional microphones that allow you to focus on speech
and reduce background noise in busy environments.
10. Natural Sound Experience
The receiver placement inside the canal allows sound to reach your eardrum more naturally. The result? Crisp, clear, distortion-free hearing, especially for mild to severe hearing losses.
