Sound through bone — bypassing outer and middle ear problems

Baha 5 is a bone conduction sound processor. It bypasses obstacles in the outer or middle ear and sends sound as gentle vibrations through the skull bone directly to the inner ear (cochlea). The device is small and discreet, with direct sound streaming from compatible Apple devices and control through the Baha 5 Smart App. Fitting and tuning are carried out by a specialist.

Why people choose it Baha 5

Bypasses the problem, not masks it

Sound travels by vibration through the bone straight to the inner ear, bypassing the damaged outer and middle ear. This makes hearing possible even where a conventional aid cannot help.

Direct sound streaming

Calls, music and video from compatible Apple devices play straight in the processor, with no extra wires. Volume and settings are in the Baha 5 Smart App.

Suitable for the youngest

On the soft Baha Softband the device can be worn without surgery — a gentle solution for babies and children not yet ready for an operation.

Try before deciding

With the Softband or SoundArc you can experience bone conduction before any surgery and calmly confirm that it suits you.
