The bluetooth transmitter from Ja圜ar may work with the Advance made by Sonova as this brand uses a bluetooth classic protocol, although sometimes there is latency with these devices - I also had a patient connect their hearing aids directly to the TVs bluetooth with no intermediate device, although am guessing this would vary across different TVs too. The bluetooth television devices which connect to advance are a rebranded signia streamline TV device for the advance range made by Sivantos (Signias parent company) and a rebranded phonak TV connector made by Sonova (phonak / unitrons parent company).Īt present there is a global shortage of the Sonova TV connectors so even if you did want to order one you would not be able to and sonova cannot give us an answer on when they will be available. They are not ‘locked’ to specsavers clinics for adjustments Specsavers on the other hand do allow this so if you were to get your aids at Specsavers and transfer to another clinic that clinic can get the specsavers advance software to adjust the aids, hence why their aids are elligible for Subsidies under HSP. I can buy a much cheaper Bluetooth transmitter/receiver from Jaycar but I don’t know if it will work even though Phonak say that their Bluetooth connects to almost everything.Ĭostco do not supply their aids through HSP as they do not release their software for other clinics to use, which in Australia is a stipulation for the clinic to have access to the hearing services subsidies. I understand that Phonak Paradise have improved their Bluetooth connectivity but I can’t find out if it is version 4, version 5 or LC3.īearing in mind that TV sound is very important to me, has anybody experienced Bluetooth with Specsavers’ Advance hearing aids and is it really required that I purchase Specsavers’ transmitter or will the TV connection be just as good by itself? Specsavers offer a Bluetooth transmitter for pairing my hearing aids to the TV. The Elite being compared to Phonak Paradise 90, Signia 7X and Styletto X7 The Super are described:- “ The features of the Specsavers Advance Super are comparable to the Phonak Paradise 70, Signia 5X and Styletto X5. I have a TLC smart TV which has Bluetooth installed and one of the main features that I require is good TV sound that I can hear and understand rather than reading sub titles. The Specsavers’ site shows different features and a series of asterisks showing there score in each category. ![]() Standard, Plus, Premium, Super and Elite. ![]() I am finding it very difficult to find any information on the different levels available. I will soon be purchasing some hearing aids from Specsavers, Australia.
