DigiTech Point-O Technology Review

Note: DigiTech instrumentation by DigiCare features four tiers of technology groups for easier marketing, pricing and counseling. Each tier features special technology characteristics and covers a wide variety of hearing losses.




1.0 TECHNOLOGY SERIES feature Class D and Class B analogue custom and BTE instruments—while not as advanced as our digital instrumentation, these are excellent, distortion-free circuits for those who either prefer analogue or who cannot afford digital. These use active rather than passive filters and are very clear devices. Reasonably priced.


2.0 TECHNOLOGY SERIES feature advanced analogue BTE instruments only. These offer more compression strategies (WDRC, AGCo, AGC-I) and power ranges. These instruments sound nearly as good as digital technology! In fact, our high-power BTE (PT1PPS) provides more use-gain and output without feedback than almost any power digital on the market!


3.0 TECHNOLOGY SERIES feature our economical digital technology group. Both the custom instrument and behind-the-ear (BTE) models feature super reliable 9-band/2-channel DSPII circuit with simplified software for easy programming. These are priced below most non-digital programmable devices, and replace the former WDRC hybrid devices. The BTE version utilizes Digital Audio Chemistry technologies, such as the patented Speech Management System (SMS) and Microphone Noise Reduction (MNR). All instrumentation of this class are built on open architecture for backwards compatibility to new versions of the software. Battery drain is a miniscule .65 mA or less drain, about half the industry average.


4.0 TECHNOLOGY SERIES feature two pinnacle DSPIII digital circuits. These circuits are utilized for optimal correction of hearing impairment and tinnitus management, where indicated—32-Channel ADRO and 3-channel/14-band Premium Digital Platforms in open architecture allow for backwards compatibility and future software upgrades. This series features Mini-Canal, Canal, Half-Shell, and Full-ITE, and Two BTE model size casings (Small and Open-Ear Nano). Offering advanced Digital Audio Chemistry technologies (SMS, MNR, adaptive directional) using .65mA or less battery drain, unheard of in such a sophisticated DSP package!
