BeHear ACCESS
Hearing amplifier for live conversations, mobile calls, streamed audio, looped venues
BeHear ACCESS is a stylish hearing amplifier for people who need enhanced hearing in specific situations. It looks (and functions) like a typical Bluetooth® stereo headset but also provides enhancement for all around hearing (live conversations, mobile phone calls, music play, ambient hearing), as well as assistive listening functionality.

BeHear ACCESS utilizes sound processing technologies developed by Alango Technologies, Ltd. over the past two decades, such as:
- ListenThrough™ – passing through important ambient sounds during music playback
- EasyListen™ – slowing down speech dynamically during mobile phone conversations
- Personal Sound Amplifier – providing dynamic, compressed amplification of ambient sounds
- SoundFocus™ – three options for determining directionality of hearing amplification (narrow, wide, omni) based on the wearer’s desire to focus on a specific sound source, or a broader range
- Tinnitus Masking: Reduce discomfort with built-in, customizable random noise generation technology
- Hearing Enhancement Functions – including tone control, noise reduction, echo cancellation, and more
- CROS/BiCROS – support for single-sided deafness
