RONDO Audio Processor
As the first all-in-one cochlear implant audio processor, RONDO set a new benchmark in design. All the parts, including the microphone, battery, and coil, are integrated into one compact unit, making RONDO comfortable to wear and easy to maintain. What’s more, you can go for up to five days before needing to change the batteries.
Reliable Simplicity
RONDO combines great sound quality and easy usability in one compact device. This makes RONDO comfortable to wear, particularly if you use glasses, and easy to hide under your hair.

Adapting to You
Never miss out on the sounds around you. RONDO uses Automatic Sound Management technology to adapt to the sound levels in your environment. The result? Less time spent switching settings and more time spent focusing on the sounds you love.
Stay Connected
Keep connected to the sounds in your environment. Whether watching TV on your tablet or chatting on the phone, there are many ways to connect your RONDO so that you don’t miss a moment. In public venues, you can also connect to hearing loops or use wireless microphones to focus on the most important sounds.

Watching TV
Public Venues

On the Phone
Take that call anywhere. Use a Bluetooth® neckloop to connect your phone to your RONDO for clear audio and hands-free calling.
Listening to Music
Get the most out of your music. For the best quality, use a direct audio input cable, or try wireless streaming with a Bluetooth neckloop.
Watching TV
Hear your favourite shows more clearly. From TVs to tablets, there are plenty of options for connecting to what you want to watch.
Public Venues
Hear your best, wherever you are. You can easily connect your RONDO to hearing loops at cinemas, theatres, places of worship, and many other public venues.
At Work or School
Be part of the conversation. With a wireless receiver and microphone, such as the RogerTM Pen from Phonak, you can hear a speaker clearly, even in noisy settings like busy meetings or classrooms.
Long-Lasting Power
Experience great sound for up to 75 hours at a time. RONDO’s extensive battery life gives you days of uninterrupted hearing, meaning you can focus on your hearing, not your batteries.
Want flexible power options? RONDO’s Mini Battery Pack is a compact external device, which lets you power your processor with regular AAA batteries, or a rechargeable DaCapo PowerPack.
