Widex Moment Scores Across Five Lab Metrics
Our testing evaluates the Widex Moment on speech in quiet, speech in noise, own voice naturalness, music streaming quality, and feedback control. Each metric below represents standardized measurements rather than subjective impressions.
How clearly speech comes through in calm, one-on-one surroundings.
Speech understanding against loud background noise — the toughest everyday test.
How natural your own voice sounds while wearing the aids, without a boomy, plugged-up quality.
Sound quality of music streamed to the hearing aids over Bluetooth.
Resistance to the whistling and squealing caused by acoustic feedback.
Scores use HearAdvisor’s public scoring scale and are based on measurements from our acoustic test chamber.
Test Conditions
How the Widex Moment Performed Across Fit Conditions
We tested the Widex Moment in both Initial and Tuned configurations to measure how professional adjustment affects performance. Select either condition below to see detailed fit summaries and metric breakdowns for each setting.
In its initial fit configuration with closed vented domes, the Widex Moment achieves a normalized Initial Score of 4.7/5. Speech in quiet performs well at 3.8/5, while speech in noise scores 2.6/5. Feedback handling is excellent at 5.0/5, providing strong stability right out of the box. Music streaming scores 3.8/5, and own-voice comfort is solid at 3.0/5. This initial configuration delivers strong overall performance with minimal setup required.
What is HearAdvisor's Initial Fit?
The Initial Fit approximates the most likely settings and eartips for a typical moderate hearing loss. Results are measured across the same 72 acoustic scenes in our custom-built lab, then scored on a 5-star scale using an auditory model.
Amplification Analysis
Widex Moment Insertion Gain Versus Prescriptive Targets
The graph below plots the Widex Moment's measured insertion gain against established prescriptive fitting targets. Closer alignment between the amplification curve and target line indicates more accurate frequency-specific output for the test audiogram.
