What Is Real Ear Measurement?

Receiving a new Prescription is an exciting step, but every ear canal is as unique as a fingerprint. Its shape, length, and volume change how sound behaves before it even reaches your eardrum. Without objective verification, a hearing solution is simply based on a “best guess” average. Real-Ear Measurement (REM) replaces guesswork with mathematical certainty, ensuring that your first experience with better hearing is comfortable, clear, and perfectly tailored to your anatomy.

Real-Ear Measurement (REM) is universally recognized as the absolute gold standard of Audiological care. It is the global benchmark for Clinical verification, adopted by leading institutions worldwide to ensure patient safety and performance. During this process, a microscopic probe microphone is placed into the ear canal to measure the exact sound pressure levels reaching the eardrum. We first measure your ear’s natural acoustics, then repeat the process with your Prescription technology active.

By analyzing this real-time data, we can verify that the amplification levels across all frequencies—from low-frequency bass to high-frequency speech sounds—match your specific requirements. This ensures that soft sounds are audible, normal speech is clear, and loud sounds remain comfortable without ever reaching a level of distortion.

The result of this Clinical protocol is a highly accurate fitting that maximizes your ability to understand speech in challenging environments. Once the calibration is complete, we provide a comprehensive orientation on the maintenance and care of your technology. This includes expert guidance on insertion, removal, and power management, ensuring you are fully equipped to manage your hearing health. By prioritizing Real-Ear Measurement (REM), we ensure your technology delivers the high-fidelity performance you need to stay connected to your world.
