Technological innovation in hearing aids has taken a revolutionary step forward with Phonak Paradise hearing aids and their exclusive ActiveVent receiver. This system is the world’s first smart receiver, specifically designed to deliver an adaptable, optimised listening experience in any environment. From noisy restaurant dinners to intimate conversations in the quiet of your home, the Phonak Paradise with ActiveVent guarantees unprecedented sound clarity for people with mild to moderate hearing loss.
Phonak Audéo Paradise: Innovation and Cutting-Edge Technology
The Phonak Audéo Paradise model is no ordinary hearing aid. It integrates advanced hardware, a powerful sound-processing chip, and an innovative motion sensor that enables a smarter listening experience. Combined with the ActiveVent receiver, it guarantees a unique listening experience that automatically adjusts performance based on your surroundings.
The PRISM™ Chip: Smart Sound Processing
At the heart of the Phonak Audéo Paradise is its PRISM™ chip (Processing Real-time Intelligent Sound Management), designed to process sound faster and more efficiently than previous versions. This chip not only improves sound quality but also delivers unmatched hearing personalisation. The built-in motion sensor technology lets the hearing aid recognise when you’re moving and adjust the sound so you always hear clearly and comfortably.
Advantages of the ActiveVent Receiver
ActiveVent is one of the most important innovations in recent hearing aid history. It offers a unique solution that combines the best of open and closed fittings, improving both speech clarity and ambient sound quality. To fully understand the significance of this advance, it helps to understand the concept of “venting”.
What Is Hearing Aid Venting?
Venting refers to the holes or channels in a hearing aid’s mould or dome, which let air and natural sound flow in and out of the ear canal. Open venting is ideal for users with mild hearing loss, since it offers a more natural feel and reduces the sensation of occlusion (the feeling of a blocked ear). In noisy environments, however, it can be a problem, since it doesn’t fully block out unwanted sounds.
ActiveVent solves this dilemma by dynamically switching between an open and closed fitting depending on the environment in real time. This lets you enjoy clarity in noisy situations along with the comfort of an open fitting in quieter environments.
In fact, there is research on the benefits of combining open and closed hearing aid fittings. Open-fit hearing aids have been shown to provide more natural sound quality, improved perception of one’s own voice, more direct sound localisation, and greater comfort in use.
Advantages of ActiveVent in Different Scenarios
ActiveVent offers a wide range of benefits for people with varying degrees of hearing loss:
- Clarity in noisy environments: In restaurants, events or noisy gatherings, ActiveVent automatically closes to block out background noise, improving speech understanding by up to 10% more compared to hearing aids without this technology.
- Comfort in quiet environments: In situations with minimal noise, such as at home or in the office, ActiveVent opens to allow for more natural airflow, providing a comfortable listening experience free from any feeling of occlusion.
- Smooth transitions: Switching between open and closed fittings is completely automatic, meaning you won’t have to manually adjust your hearing aid based on your surroundings. This ensures a continuous, uninterrupted listening experience.
Benefits for Natural Sound Perception
One of ActiveVent’s most valued features is the improvement in natural sound perception. Users who retain their low-frequency hearing find this technology particularly comfortable, since it avoids the internal ear resonance that’s a common complaint among users of closed-fit hearing aids. This results in a more balanced perception of their own voice and more direct, realistic sound.
Thanks to ActiveVent, for patients who need both fittings depending on the situation, this is no longer an issue, since this dynamic venting can adjust to any listening situation, even improving the most complex fittings.
ActiveVent Compatibility with Phonak Audéo Paradise Models
ActiveVent is compatible exclusively with the rechargeable Phonak Audéo P-R and Audéo P-RT models, in the 90, 70 and 50 tiers. This means you can enjoy this advanced technology without having to worry about constantly changing batteries, since these hearing aids come with a long-lasting rechargeable battery that guarantees continuous use throughout the day.
Available Models and Tiers
Phonak offers up to four different technology levels, letting users choose the one that best fits their needs and budget:
- 90 tier: The top technology level, ideal for those seeking the best possible listening experience in any environment.
- 70 tier: Offers excellent sound quality, balancing speech clarity and comfort.
- 50 tier: A more affordable option that still keeps many of Phonak’s advanced features.
Phonak Paradise and ActiveVent: Extra Features for a Modern Lifestyle
The Phonak Audéo Paradise doesn’t just improve hearing in challenging environments — it’s also designed to fit seamlessly into a modern lifestyle. Some of its standout features include:
Advanced Bluetooth Connectivity
Phonak offers the widest Bluetooth connectivity on the market, and just like the Phonak Marvel, this hearing aid is also compatible with all Bluetooth devices, both phones and computers.
With the new Phonak hearing aids, users can take hands-free phone calls while connecting to popular voice assistants like Apple Siri®, Google Assistant™ or Amazon Alexa®, with nothing more than a double tap on the ear.
Compared to the previous version, connectivity has been improved with the addition of low-energy Bluetooth for connecting to the app, and the number of devices you can pair via classic Bluetooth has increased, letting you connect up to two phones simultaneously and up to eight devices paired at the same time.
Motion sensor
Earlier this year, we saw the Signia X become the first hearing aid to feature this technology, and now Phonak has also added a motion sensor, giving it more information about the listening situation the user is experiencing, allowing it to adapt hearing performance more effectively.
Manage Your Calls From Your Hearing Aid With Just a Tap on Your Ear
The Phonak Audéo Paradise’s built-in motion sensor doesn’t just improve hearing — it also lets you perform several actions with just a tap on your ear: answer a phone call, activate voice assistants, start or stop streaming music, and more. In other words, thanks to the built-in microphone, you can make a hands-free call and launch your voice assistant.
Media Streaming and Superior Sound Quality
Streaming music, podcasts and phone calls is remarkably clear and immersive, thanks to Phonak’s high-quality stereo sound technology. This is especially beneficial for people who spend a lot of time on video calls or enjoying multimedia content.
If You Need a Custom Mould for Your Fitting
While many users prefer off-the-shelf hearing aids, there are cases that call for a custom fit. Phonak offers moulds made from titanium, a material that’s more durable, lighter and more comfortable than traditional acrylic moulds. These custom moulds improve durability and comfort, especially for those who wear their hearing aids for long periods.

MyPhonak App for Personalised Settings
The MyPhonak app gives users complete control over their hearing aid. From adjusting the volume and switching between preset programmes, to making advanced adjustments like noise reduction or the speech enhancer, the app ensures a fully personalised listening experience.
Remote Support With the MyPhonak App
One standout feature of the app is the ability to receive remote support from a hearing care professional, meaning you can adjust your hearing aid or get technical assistance without leaving home. This feature is especially useful for older people or those with limited mobility who can’t visit their hearing centre often, building on the initial settings your hearing care professional has already set up.
