Oticon Opn S™

The life-changing
Oticon Opn S
breaks a law of physics

Discover Oticon Opn S in this video

First, we introduced a new sound
paradigm

The revolutionary Oticon Opn™ broke with the conventional way of supporting people with hearing loss in noisy environments.

Instead of applying narrow directionality and closing down surrounding sounds, it opened up their world. Oticon Opn delivered what the brain needs to make sense of sound.

Now, Oticon Opn S
takes it to the next level

Oticon Opn S breaks a law of physics and delivers further improvements in speech understanding and listening effort. Fuelled by the new, advanced Velox S™ platform, Oticon Opn S takes the open sound experience and unique benefits of BrainHearing™ to new grounds.

  • The OpenSound Optimizer™

    The ultra-fast computations of this groundbreaking new feature makes Oticon Opn S able to detect and prevent feedback proactively, in under 60 ms.

  • Oticon Opn

    Upgraded OpenSound Navigator™

    Oticon Opn S comes with an improved version of the groundbreaking OpenSound Navigator offering even more help in everyday situations to those users who need it most.

  • Closing another gap to normal hearing

    Studies prove that Oticon Opn S users can experience speech understanding at the level of people with normal hearing in noisy environments.

  • Rechargeable solution

    State-of-the-art rechargeable lithium-ion solution offers a super fast three-hour charging time for a full day of power, including streaming

What is the law of physics?

According to the laws of physics, a microphone too close to a speaker, creates feedback.

As a hearing care professional you want to give optimal gain to every client. While providing each person with the comfort of an open dome.

But this is often not possible due to the risk of feedback*. Until now, this law has restricted hearing care professionals in their fitting and trapped them in a world of compromise. A compromise on sound clarity and audibility due to reduced gain and a compromise on comfort due to closed fittings. Oticon Opn S changes all this.

Now, the OpenSound
Optimizer gives you a
whole new level of
fitting freedom

The law-breaking feature analyzes the amplified sound at an astonishing 56,000 times/sec. It’s so fast it can detect and prevent feedback pro-actively, even before it occurs.

The OpenSound Optimizer enables you to open up the client’s world with up to 6 dB of additional gain, in an open fitting. All without the risk of feedback.* The OpenSound Optimizer represents a breakthrough in accessing speech details with more natural sound and increased comfort.

* For prescribed fittings, according to best practice

Expanding the benefits of
BrainHearing™

One law we will never break is making hearing aids that work with the brain and delivering what it needs to make sense of sound. This is Brainhearing.

New EEG research:

the first hearing aid proven to help the brain organize sounds

In a groundbreaking new research study, independent hearing scientists have proved that Oticon Opn S makes speech stand out and significantly improves selective attention.

‘Selective attention’ describes the brain’s natural ability to organize and prioritize sounds. This is vital for social interaction and crucial for being able to follow conversations.

Explore the EEG results showing how OpenSound Navigator makes sound sources more distinct inside the brain.
