Custom-Fitted Earpieces Now Available
LightSPEED Aviation and
Sensaphonics Hearing Conservation, Inc., have announced a strategic
partnership. The two companies have teamed to offer pilots (using
LightSPEED’s Mach 1 headset) comfortable, personalized ear
molds that stay in place.
Customized ear molds are an optional feature for Mach 1
customers, and provide superior ‘in-the-ear’ (ITE)
comfort while blocking out ambient noise. A certified audiologist
ensures the earpieces are fitted perfectly for each pilot’s
unique ear canals. The soft, custom-fit silicone material isolates
the ear and blocks out external noise to provide the ultimate in
sound quality and hearing protection with the most comfortable
in-ear material available.
“LightSPEED’s selection of Sensaphonics as our
provider of custom in-the-ear molds for our Mach 1 headsets
underscores our relentless commitment to delivering a superior ITE
headset that is ultracomfortable while providing excellent sound
quality,” said Jim Mueller, vice president of operations at
LightSPEED.
“Our rigorous field tests with other ear mold technologies
as well as ‘self-fitted’ designs, proved hands-down
that Sensaphonics offered the best in-ear solution on the market.
It’s easy to see why IRL and CHAMP drivers, NASA, and many
major touring musical artists rely on hearing protection technology
made by Sensaphonics.”
”We’re pleased to partner with LightSPEED in
providing in-the-ear protection for Mach 1 customers. With the Mach
1 headset and Sensaphonics custom-fitted earpieces, pilots get
unmatched noise reduction, even clearer sound and exceptional
comfort,” said Michael Santucci, audiologist, founder and
president of Sensaphonics Hearing Conservation, Inc.
