Who's Actually Testing This?

HearingTracker is one of the most-used hearing aid review resources for patients and audiologists. Its lab partner, HearAdvisor, tests devices the way a consumer testing lab tests appliances: the same recordings, the same conditions, every device, side by side.

Same test for every device

Devices are recorded on an acoustic manikin in realistic listening scenes, so results compare directly instead of coming from a brochure.

Real-world scenes

Speech in quiet, speech in noise, music streaming and feedback handling are each scored separately.

Not editable by brands

Scores are published by the reviewer. A manufacturer can't buy a better grade or rewrite a result.

What the numbers mean

"SoundGrade A" and "#1 of 56," explained.

SoundGrade A is an overall letter grade for sound performance across the lab's tests. A is the top tier on the scale, and Beyond Pro earned it. #1 of 56 is Beyond Pro's position on the OTC leaderboard, ranked by overall SoundScore against 55 other tested over-the-counter devices.

✓ Is this a paid placement? No. ELEHEAR is the manufacturer, which is exactly why we point you to the original sources instead of asking you to take our word for it.

✓ Beyond Pro scores higher on speech in quiet, speech in noise and music streaming, and ties on feedback handling. Jabra's price includes 3 years of professional audiology support, which Beyond Pro does not, so weigh that against the $1,396 difference.

What a Ranking Can't Tell You

Lab scores measure sound performance, not how a device fits your ears or your life. Comfort, fit and personal preference matter too, which is why Beyond Pro comes with a 45-day risk-free trial. Beyond Pro is an over-the-counter hearing aid for adults with perceived mild to moderate hearing loss. If you have sudden hearing changes, ear pain, drainage or dizziness, see a healthcare professional.

Common Questions

SoundGrade is an overall letter grade for sound performance in HearAdvisor's lab tests, covering speech in quiet, speech in noise, music streaming and feedback handling. "#1 of 56" is Beyond Pro's position on the OTC leaderboard by overall SoundScore, against 55 other tested over-the-counter devices.

Jabra Enhance Select 700 ($1,995) is a well-regarded premium hearing aid that HearAdvisor has tested with the same methodology, so it makes a fair like-for-like reference point. It holds SoundGrade B (top 27%) versus Beyond Pro's SoundGrade A (#1 of 56). Jabra's price includes 3 years of professional audiology support, which is a real advantage if you want in-person-style care.
