With a greater sense of awareness – of being there – you’ll enjoy fuller, richer and more detailed sound quality. You’ll be able to locate where sounds are coming from more easily and enjoy conversations even in noisy environments. In addition to this, ReSound Live™ comes in a variety of appealing, comfortable and discreet designs. No longer living life on the sidelines you can reengage with family and friends and experience sounds the way they were meant to be heard. Sounds in full detail. Sounds in surround. The surround sound experience means enjoying sounds the way they were meant to be heard.

Put yourself back in the picture

Whether I’m in a restaurant, out walking or in the car, the sound quality is top notch. It gives me a rich and detailed sound, and I feel in touch with the world around me. Plus, I spend a lot of time outdoors and wind noise is not a problem anymore, which is great.

Powering ReSound Live™ is surround sound by ReSound, a highly advanced technology platform that features our revolutionary surround sound processor. Just like the human ear, this unique technology processes bass and treble sound streams separately, ensuring you benefit from: • Richer and more natural sound quality • Clear understanding of speech even in challenging listening situations • Vastly improved awareness of surroundings • Enhanced ability to locate sounds

Tune into richer, purer sound quality The surround sound by ReSound platform includes stateof-the-art technologies that vastly improve your listening experience, delivering brilliant clarity and full-bodied sound quality. Richer, more natural sound ReSound Live™ has highly advanced sound compression and noise reduction features that deliver extremely natural sound quality without noise, wind noise and distortion. The addition of WhistleControl™ prevents embarrassing whistling or “squealing” – even in the most challenging situations like on the phone.

I’m no longer overwhelmed by situations or feel left out, which just changes everything for me. When you’re not worrying about missing out on conversations or things happening behind you, it gives you a huge boost of confidence.

Hear conversations clearly in any environment ReSound Live™ delivers impressive speech understanding even in the noisiest situations. In combination with the innovative surround sound processing this vastly improves your awareness of your surroundings and your ability to locate which direction sounds are coming from. For example when walking and talking in a busy street, you will be able to hear conversation clearly while still hearing when and where a car is coming from. Or if you’re at a party or in a crowded restaurant you’ll be able to listen to the person across from you while still being aware of the person next to you or a waiter asking you a question. In short, you’ll be perfectly in tune with the world around you.
