Features of the XCEL:
XCEL from Siemens is the newest sound technology generation as of mid 2012. With this new technology Siemens is addressing how fast new wearers accept amplification and improving long term performance in noise.

Localizing sound, being able to determine the direction a sound is coming from, is an important part of the equation.

For example, a hearing impaired person has better understanding when facing the speaker. XCEL helps determine where sound is coming from and then is better able to focus on and clarify that sound when the wearer is facing in the direction the sound is coming from.

XCEL's adaptive technology combines industry leading noise reduction with directional information to maximize clarity in balance with sound quality with this new generation ond Siemens Best Fit Technology.

Bottom line: XCEL technology improves long term speech clarity while accelerating and easing acceptance of your new hearing aids.

Digital The two most common technologies used in hearing aids are analog and digital. Digital is newer and considered to be much more flexible, capable of doing more operations, and the only technology used in modern hearing aids.	Yes
Open Fit Type	RIC / CRT
Channels Human speech ranges in frequencies roughly from 250 to 6000 Hz. Hearing aids are built so that this group of frequencies (250 to 6000 Hz) is divided into smaller groups, called bands or channels.	16
Memories Multiple memory settings can be programmed into the aid to give the user the ability to cope with changing sound and noise environments with the push of a button.	5
Technology Level	Premium
Volume Control Volume control is generally considered to be a manual adjustment that the user can control. All hearing aids have automatic gain control designed to make soft sounds audible and loud sounds tolerable. This is done automatically within limits programmed into the device.	Yes
On-Board Control Type Controls on hearing aids usually have one or more of: 1. A momentary button used to change from one memory to the next 2. A button used to increase the level of volume 3. A rocker switch where pushing on one end does one function while the other end does another function 4. A wheel that will control volume	Memory Button & Volume Control
Remote Control Available Remote controls for hearing aids are small enough to comfortably fit in a pocket. A remote control will enable more functions than can be put on a hearing aid itself.	Yes
Directional Microphones Microphones are the electronic component that picks up sound. Microphones are very small and can be made to pick up more sound in one direction than all others. This is called a directional microphone.	Yes
Noise Reduction Technology to separate voices from other sounds is continuously being improved. Each manufacturer has a patented process and trademarked name for noise reduction.	Yes
Sudden Noise Protection This feature helps make hearing aids acoustically comfortable by dampening sudden loud noises, such as a dropped dish.	Yes
Wind Noise Protection Wind noise is an important feature for those that spend time in the outdoors by reducing the roar of wind across the microphone. This feature is improving but is not effective in gusty wind conditions.	Yes
Feedback Management Acoustic Feedback, is also known as squealing, buzzing, 'your aids are talking to you', etc.	Yes
Telecoil Telecoils help with telephones that are rated hearing aid compatible.	Yes
Aid-to-Aid Communication Communication from one hearing aid to the other is a very low strength signal designed to keep both hearing aids operating in the same mode at the same volume.	Yes
Bluetooth Capable Being able to couple your hearing aids with a BlueTooth-enabled device, such as a cell phone, allows phone conversations to be heard through your hearing aids.	Yes
Direct Audio Input (DAI) DAI is only on Large and Full Size hearing aids due to the need for terminals on the outside of the case. Using DAI allows other devices to connect directly to the hearing aids and input their audio signal.	No
Battery Size/Color Conventional Hearing Aid Batteries cost less than a dollar per battery and are very easy to change.	13 (Orange)
Warranty	3 years
Loss/Damage Warranty	3 years
