Speaker and Thin Tube lengths
To ensure a secure fitting with maximum patient comfort, the proper Speaker and Thin Tube length should be selected for each patient before fitting a miniRITE or miniBTE.
Sonic miniFit Speakers come in four different lengths, and a red (Right) or blue (Left) marker on the receiver identifies the orientation.
Sonic miniFit Thin Tubes come in four different lengths, and a red (Right) or blue (Left) marker on the Thin Tube identifies the orientation.
Determining the proper Speaker and Thin Tube length
To determine which Speaker and Thin Tube length is most appropriate for your patient, use the fitting tool from your Sonic miniFit Kit and Sonic miniFit Thin Tube Kit.
