Why Styletto 5AX

Award-Winning Style Meets Clinical Performance

The Signia Styletto 5AX is the world's first Slim-RIC hearing aid — a device that transforms hearing care into a fashion-forward experience without sacrificing audiological excellence. Powered by the Augmented Xperience (AX) platform, it separates speech from background noise using dual-processing technology, giving you clarity in the conversations that matter most.

Augmented Focus technology — Signia Styletto 5AX

Augmented Focus™

Hear Every Word, Even in Noise

Augmented Focus™ uses a unique split-processing architecture to simultaneously enhance speech while suppressing background noise — without blending the two together. The result is a natural, layered soundscape where voices stand out clearly, whether you're at a dinner table, in a busy café, or outdoors on a windy day.

  • Dual processor separates speech from background noise
  • 8.1 dB SNR improvement in noisy environments
  • Preferred by 8 out of 10 users in consumer studies
  • Auto-adapts to 7 distinct sound environments

OVP™ 2.0

Your Voice Sounds Natural Again

Own Voice Processing (OVP™ 2.0) is a dedicated processing channel that analyzes and adjusts only your own voice in real time — completely separately from all other sounds. This eliminates the hollow, echoey quality that makes many hearing aid wearers feel unnatural when speaking, resulting in the most natural own-voice experience available.

  • Dedicated own-voice processing channel
  • 78% increase in conversational participation reported
  • Works automatically — no manual adjustments needed
  • Clinically validated in peer-reviewed research
EchoShield technology for reverberant environments

Auto EchoShield

Clarity in Reverberant Spaces

Large rooms, tiled halls, houses of worship, and conference spaces create echo and reverberation that can make speech sound muddy and indistinct. Auto EchoShield automatically detects reverberant listening environments and applies targeted processing to reduce the smearing effect of echo — restoring crisp, clear speech intelligibility.

  • Automatically activates in reverberant rooms
  • Reduces speech smearing from echo and reflection
  • No manual program switching required
  • Works seamlessly alongside Augmented Focus™
Signia AX Platform next-generation dual processing diagram

AX Platform

Next-Generation Dual Processing

The Augmented Xperience (AX) platform processes 192,000 data points per second across two independent processing pathways — one for the foreground (speech) and one for the background (environment). These streams are fused at the output stage to create a rich, three-dimensional soundscape that closely resembles natural human hearing.

  • 192,000 data points processed per second
  • 95% improvement in group speech reception
  • 32 channels with 16 gain handles for precise fitting
  • Binaural Directionality III for spatial awareness

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The Styletto 5AX carries an IP68 rating, which is the highest available for hearing aids. It is fully dustproof and can be submerged in up to 1 metre of water for up to 30 minutes. You can wear it confidently in rain, perspiration-heavy environments, and near water.
Yes. The Styletto 5AX supports direct streaming on all ASHA-compatible Android devices (Android OS 10 or higher). It also supports hands-free direct streaming from iPhone via the MFi (Made for iPhone) protocol. No additional streamer device is required for either platform.
A full 3-hour charge delivers up to 19 hours of use without streaming, or up to 16 hours with 5 hours of streaming. A 30-minute fast charge adds approximately 5 hours of use. The included pocket-sized charging case can hold up to 3 full additional charges, providing up to 4 days of autonomy away from a power outlet.
No. The Styletto 5AX does not include a telecoil due to its ultra-slim SLIM-RIC form factor. If a telecoil is required, we recommend discussing the Pure Charge&Go AX T variant with your hearing specialist, which includes a telecoil in a similarly compact RIC design.

The Styletto 5AX is fully compatible with Signia TeleCare, which allows our hearing specialists to remotely fine-tune your hearing aid settings via the Signia app. You simply connect through the app, describe what you're experiencing, and your specialist can make live adjustments — all without leaving your home.
Both models share the same award-winning Slim-RIC design and AX platform. The Styletto 7AX is the premium tier, offering more channels (48 vs. 32), more listening programs, and additional AI-driven features.
