Following the introduction in the market of the Sennheiser Conversation Clear Plus, which are sold as standard true wireless earbuds for hearing support, or "self-adjusting speech enhancement," as the company describes them, these new All-Day Clear are intending to appeal to those consumers looking for an affordable OTC, self-fitting, lightweight hearing-aid alternative.
"All-Day Clear comes at a time when US consumers are seeking technology that can instantly improve their lives," says Clara Beck, Sennheiser Hearing Category Director. "The over-the-counter legislation allows us to bridge a sizeable gap in the hearing devices market by enhancing ready-to-wear solutions with our extensive acoustics and speech enhancement expertise."
"From the initial unboxing to that first blissful conversation, All-Day Clear’s thoughtful features put the wearer’s needs first. All-Day Clear and All-Day Clear Slim are two uniquely sleek designs with matching benefits focused on speech intelligibility and a host of practical accessories. These Sennheiser OTC hearing devices deliver clear, vibrant sound and feature intelligent scene detection that monitors the person’s environment for seamless optimization of dialogue," the company describes in the announcement.
Specifications detail up to 16 hours of usage from the compact rechargeable devices. Each set of hearing devices comes with a charging case and accessory kit, while the Slim wear style also includes an equally compact carrying case. On both Android and Apple mobile devices, each device can be set up and customized in less than five minutes, guided by the intuitive All-Day Clear app. Each device supports Bluetooth for music and podcast streaming from mobile devices, for which users can define a personalized sound profile, wind noise management and more using the same app.
"The All-Day Clear experience is friction-free; consumers can research, purchase, and customize Sennheiser’s hearing aids from the comfort of their smartphone. And for those seeking the simplicity of an over-the-counter purchase and the peace of mind that a local hearing professional can provide, consumers have an option to purchase an In-Clinic Care Package," the company adds. Every All-Day Clear purchase from sennheiser-hearing.com comes with a reassuring 45-day risk-free trial.
Jill Goosen, Sennheiser All-Day Clear Product Manager adds: "We made the entire ownership path effortless — especially for those who feel they’re not ready for the prescription approach. Still, for those DIY consumers that may want the safety net of a hearing care professional at a later date, or to purchase their hearing aids from a hearing care professional, All-Day Clear provides the best of both worlds."
The new All-Day Clear and All-Day Clear Slim hearing-aids will be available starting from mid-July at sennheiser-hearing.com and via select retailers and hearing care professionals at an MSRP of $1,399.95 and $1,499.95, respectively. The free All-Day Clear App will be made available for download on the App Store (iOS) and Google Play Store (Android) at that time.
