SONIC Innovations (NASDAQ: SNCI) designs, manufacture and market advanced digital hearing aids and hearing aid components designed to provide the highest levels of satisfaction for hearing impaired consumers. Capitalizing on a new understanding of human hearing, we have developed patented digital signal processing, or DSP, technologies and embedded them in the smallest single - chip DSP platform ever installed in a hearing aid. We believe our hearing aids set a new standard for consumer satisfaction because they can be smaller, more comfortable, and more reliable and deliver more natural sound than competing hearing aids. Sonic went public in 2000.
