“I Never Want To Go Without It Again” – Experiences With RONDO 3 | MED-EL

RONDO 3 sits on my head from the time I get up in the morning until I go to bed in the evening. It is part of everything I do and I can live a completely normal life where I go to work, have various hobbies and play sports and so on. I don’t notice that I have it on. My favorite thing about RONDO 3 is that it combines the usability with the absolutely much superior sound quality that you get from having twin microphones and from having the Automatic Sound Management. So being able to combine those two things, it just seems everything perfect in one package. I am really amazed by the new RONDO, by the hearing quality, the technology, the handling.

00:45 - I would never want to go without it ever again. During my vacation with the caravan, I heard the raindrops on the skylight before my good-hearing partner did, and that made me really proud. Valentin can do all activities with RONDO 3. He does somersaults, rides his bike, splashes with water, he quarrels with his brother. RONDO 3 does not restrict him at all. The sound quality of the RONDO 3 is well it’s amazing to be honest with you.

01:15 - The way it picks out speech and other proper sound. And the best thing is… It spots the noisy, almost painful noises, and just damps them down a bit so you can hear it, but it’s not annoying. It feels completely natural that there are programs that change in the different environments. That’s not something I think about. It really feels like it looks after itself in this way. The automatic change of program isn’t something that I noticed at all.

01:43 - I can just hear, which is amazing, and you don’t have to mess around changing different programs. It just does it for you. And I don’t notice it. So with RONDO 3 and AudioLink, Valentin has the opportunity to make calls with his grandparents. Valentin, do you like to call your grandmother? I like listening to audiobooks, I enjoy music, and it’s all much easier through the AudioLink, because the sound goes directly to the implant, without disturbing outside noises. What’s especially nice about the new RONDO is that there are different covers. You can easily remove them and put them back on. Depending on my mood, or my clothing. Fine stuff.

02:34 - It makes my everyday life much easier that I can hear when I have RONDO 3 on. Did Grandpa say anything to you about your new processor? “Great, now you have nothing left in your ear.” But now that’s enough! .
