Quick <strong>guide</strong>
3 reasons why<br />
<strong>DREAM</strong> sets a new standard in hearing aid performance. There are three excellent<br />
reasons to recommend <strong>DREAM</strong> to your clients:<br />
1 MoreSOUND<br />
<strong>DREAM</strong> gives users incredibly rich and detailed sound – even in noisy environments such as concerts<br />
or sports events. And tests back this up, with users demonstrating a clear preference for True-Input<br />
Technology compared to other high performing technology.<br />
Hear the sound of <strong>DREAM</strong> for yourself with the unique <strong>DREAM</strong> app,<br />
available on App Store (search for <strong>Widex</strong> <strong>DREAM</strong>).<br />
2 MoreWords<br />
<strong>DREAM</strong> significantly improves speech intelligibility for users, particularly in noisy environments.<br />
In a recent trial, <strong>DREAM</strong> was shown to improve speech perception, with the vast majority of users<br />
experiencing better speech recognition in loud noise, in some cases as much as up to 21 percent.<br />
3 MorePERSONAL<br />
All <strong>DREAM</strong> users have access to their very own personal website, called MY.WIDEX.COM. It is the<br />
