Join us for a focus group & experience the Phonak Roger Select™

We would like to invite you to participate in a Focus Group to explore your experience with the New Roger Select™ product from Phonak, while enjoying a cheese and wine tasting in a real-life environment.

Date:
25th March 2019
Time: 6:45pm sharp
Place: La Fromagerie, Marylebone, London

The evening's discussion will be hosted and moderated by members of the Cubex Audiology team and held at La Fromagerie in Marylebone London. You will have the opportunity to experience Roger Select™ technology during an evening of relaxed socialising along with seated cheese and wine tasting uniquely designed by La Fromagerie.

Below is some information about Roger and a brief overview of how an evening would unfold.

What is Roger Select™?

Roger Select™ is a new wireless microphone from Phonak, with innovative MultiBeam technology, specifically designed to help boost hearing performance(1) and keep listeners at the heart of the conversation.

Roger Select™ utilises innovative MultiBeam Technology that allows people to hear regardless of where a voice is coming from. By utilising multiple microphones in six directions, speech is covered in a 360° listening radius. Based on preliminary data, understanding group conversation in background noise is 61% better than with hearing aids alone (2).

Placed in the centre of a table, it automatically selects the person who is talking and seamlessly switches from one talker to another. This provides the benefit of feeling as if you are part of the whole conversation. In situations where multiple conversations take place, the listener can select the person or conversation they want to focus on with a single manual touch.

Roger Select™ also features wideband Bluetooth® for phone calls, listening to TV and using multimedia devices such as music players and computers.

How will the evening unfold and what is required?

We would encourage you to attend our focus group and cheese-tasting evening with your spouse, partner, friend or primary communication partner. The evening will consist of an opportunity to experience Roger Select™ technology in a real-life social environment and to share your thoughts and opinions about the communication device.

During the evening both you and your communication partner will socialise together and with other guests while tasting plates of perfectly matched cheese paired with wine from the same or surrounding region. A selection of regional charcuterie will then offered as the second course or a seasonal salad. The second plate will be paired with red wine.
