- External microphones: clip-on microphones, table microphones as well as directional microphones depending on the area of application both for bridging distances to the speaker as well as for improving the interference/utility sound ratio (walking, meetings and conferences)
- Non BT hearing instruments via T coil & Bluetooth Connect to smartphones
- Control of the hearing system via app or remote control (scope of setting options varies depending on provider)
