Any audio processor can give you sound. We want to give you more—that’s why our audio processors are powered by Triformance technology.
With a more natural sound quality that no other cochlear implant system can match, you can enjoy richer music and more natural speech. You’re choosing to hear, so why not choose to hear your best?

Sound on the Go
You're adaptable. Your processor should be too. With Automatic Sound Management 2.0 (ASM 2.0), SONNET uses dual microphone technology to let you focus in on the conversation. Come wind, come crowds, you can focus on the sounds around you rather than constantly changing volume and settings.
Microphone Directionality focuses your hearing by using two microphones to sharpen the sounds in front of you. This gives you better listening, especially in noisy settings.
Wind Noise Reduction minimises continuous wind noise, making it easier to hear in outdoor settings. The wind noise reduction can be adjusted for your specific needs.
Automatic Volume Control continuously monitors your environment and seamlessly adjusts volume levels to ensure every sound is heard clearly and comfortably.
Never Miss a Moment
Sometimes it can be hard to hear your best. For optimal hearing in challenging environments, you can use AudioLink to connect SONNET to your phone, TV, and other devices. AudioLink can also be used as a remote microphone, to hear more clearly when chatting with friends, or in group situations.
