Extra security when it is needed

We design sound processors to be comfortable and secure no matter what you're doing.

But sometimes, you want reassurance that you won't lose them, especially during high-energy activities like skiing or playing football. Or maybe you're a parent who wants peace of mind that your child won't lose his or her sound processor.

Cochlear™ accessories can help keep your processor in place.
