How Our Process Works
Getting fitted for your Starkey Omega AI Plus hearing aids is a simple, personalized journey. From your first visit, our licensed specialists learn about your lifestyle, hearing challenges, and the listening situations that matter most to you. The most advanced hearing aids are only as good as the fitting behind them, which is why every step is tailored to your individual hearing profile.
Omega AI Plus hearing aids combine AI-powered sound processing with a discreet in-the-ear design, but the technology only delivers its full benefit when precisely programmed for your ears. Our hearing care professionals fine-tune the Omega AI Plus so speech sounds natural, background noise stays comfortable, and streaming works seamlessly with your phone.
What to Expect at Your Fitting Appointment
Every fitting appointment follows three simple steps designed to make sure your Starkey Omega AI Plus hearing aids are dialed in to your real-world needs. We listen, measure your hearing, then program and physically fit the devices so they feel as good as they sound.
- A no-pressure consultation about your daily listening situations.
- A comprehensive hearing evaluation mapping your exact hearing loss.
- Real-ear measurement and fine-tuning to match your prescription.
- Hands-on training with the My Starkey app, Bluetooth pairing, and your charger.
- A clear follow-up schedule for adjustments, cleaning, and ongoing care.
Step 1: Free Hearing Evaluation
We start with a comprehensive hearing test to understand your specific hearing loss and lifestyle needs. This is a no-obligation consultation.
Step 2: Personalized Fitting
Your Starkey Omega AI Plus hearing aids are programmed to your hearing profile and physically fitted for a comfortable, secure fit inside the ear.
Step 3: Ongoing Support
We provide follow-up adjustments, cleaning, and ongoing care to ensure your hearing aids perform their best for years to come.
Starkey Omega AI Plus Overview
The Starkey Omega AI Plus is the Premium Plus tier of the Omega family: the most capable hearing aid Starkey has ever built. The headline feature is the ALL NEW G4 Gen AI Neuro Processor, a brain-inspired design running multiple deep neural networks at once to create sound that is faster and more natural than ever while drawing minimal power from the battery.
Inside that processor is an industry-first DNN Dual Compressor. It runs a fast compressor to keep speech clear and a slow compressor to preserve natural sound quality, and the processor decides automatically which one to rely on in each moment. The result is processing up to 2.7 times faster than a leading competitor device, so sound keeps up with real life.
Two more firsts make daily use easier. Edge Mode is now on by default in Memory 1, so the AI-driven listening comfort setting works the moment you turn your hearing aids on with no activation needed, and it improves listening effort compared with the Personal program. And the NEW StarLink Charger 3.0 has been completely redesigned with LED lights, supporting up to 51 hours of battery life in a waterproof design. We also back Starkey with over 99% on-time delivery, so your devices arrive when we say they will.
At Ear to Hear, we fit Omega AI Plus in receiver-in-canal (RIC) and custom styles including ITC/ITE R and IIC NW, in a full range of colors to match your skin tone or hair color. Every fitting includes a free hearing test, real-ear measurement to verify the fit, and unlimited local service at any of our 12 locations across three states.
