Audiotoniq Begins Pre-Orders of High-Tech Hearing Aid System

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Audiotoniq, an Austin, Texas-based company dedicated to providing the latest in hearing-loss technology at a lower cost to consumers, begins pre-orders of its first-generation MyWay™ hearing aids at the 2011 AARP Life@50+ National Event and Expo in Los Angeles on Thursday, Sept. 22.  

The MyWay™ hearing aid will cost $1,949 per pair when shipments start in December 2011, and customers who pre-order will be the first to receive their hearing aid shipment. Customers can reserve the MyWay™ hearing aid with a refundable $100 and will also receive free upgraded accessories valued at $149.

The revolutionary MyWay™ hearing aids coupled with the patent pending MyWay™ smartphone app, available on Android and iPhone operating systems, gives users immediate control to make a wide range of adjustments for their hearing aid settings at the touch of a finger. The hearing aid is also adaptable for use with digital media devices such as MP3 players and contains a rechargeable lithium ion battery that will last approximately 24 hours between charges.

The upgraded accessories include the MyCharge™ portable charger, a USB flash drive that supports up to five full charges on-the-go, and the MyConnect™ ear buds that allow users to transform their hearing aids into ear buds to talk on the phone or listen to music using his or her corrected sound profile.

"Supporting a group like AARP is an important company mission to us," Harold Mindlin, vice president of sales and marketing, said. "We couldn't think of a better place to start sales for our new hearing aid system."

Audiotoniq will be exhibiting at booth number 639 at the AARP Life@50+ National Event and Expo.

About 17 percent of American adults (36 million) report some degree of hearing loss, yet only one out of five people who could benefit from a hearing aid actually wears one.

Since Audiotoniq's inception, engineers and entrepreneurs with the company have been working to develop products and distribution channels that will provide consumers with a new and improved option for hearing aids, enabling people to make on-the-fly adjustments to their hearing aids to better their overall quality of life.
