Remote microphone technology extends the microphone to sit into the upper contour of the bowl of the ear.
Its unique placement there enable it to capture more high frequencies (speech enhancement), reduce unhelpful sounds coming from behind, and reduce wind noise.
Style is unique to Resound and Beltone.
