Fig. 5. Benefit of Handymic and Linkit compared to headpiece expressed in dB. Results for all subjects and the mean of the group (N = 13). The average for the Handymic and Linkit equals 8.2 dB (SD = 2.6) and 5.9 dB (SD = 3.9) respectively.

Fig. 6. Individual SRTs obtained with Handymic (A) and Linkit (B) as a function of the SRTs obtained with the headpiece microphone. The regression lines show a relatively consistent shift downwards independent of the CI– users performance level in background noise.
