Sonic Innovations

 

Sonic Innovations is an American hearing aid company which has been bought over by William Demant Holdings, in November 2010. William Demant Holdings also owns Oticon and Bernafon and through the Sonic Innovations acquisition, obtained several hundred HearingLife clinics throughout the world.

 

Sonic Innovation's technology development has always focused on producing the best electronic noise reduction algorithms, but due to the company's smaller size, they have not released dramatically new technology for a number of years. The recent acquisition has seen this change fairly quickly as they start sharing technology with Oticon's much larger research and development department and then combine the superior hardware with their market leading noise reduction algorithms. Their new Flip and BLISS range is a result of this buy out and now offers wireless capability, superior sound quality and arguably the best feedback management system of any hearing aid out there. Now add their signature sound quality and best in class FDA approved noise canceler and you have a hearing aid range that is hard to beat.
