1. Product Description and Technical Specifications

The G8 technology is Audio Service's most advanced audio processing platform. With its Multi-Track Processing feature, it can process multiple speakers simultaneously using five separate audio channels while enhancing speech comprehension and maintaining environmental awareness. The Auto Optimization feature automatically adjusts settings using the hearing aid's motion sensor, classifier, signal-to-noise ratio, and the user's own voice.

The Audio Service IF CIC Li 8 is one of today's most advanced Completely-in-the-Canal (CIC) hearing aids. It delivers superior performance, especially in noisy social environments.

Available in black and mocha color options, the IF CIC Li 8 is Audio Service’s first rechargeable and nearly invisible Instant Fit CIC model. Thanks to the Auto Optimization technology of the G8 platform, it ensures natural and clear communication in all environments, including noisy social settings. With IP68 protection, 32 channels, 6 program options, and direct Bluetooth LE Audio streaming to both Android and iOS devices, it offers a compact yet powerful hearing solution.
