Mary Beth 2,222 Report post Posted May 4 The new Med-El intermediary device for streaming audio to Sonnet processors has been approved in Canada according to posts on FB. This will use the Sonnet’s internal 2.4 connection for the first time. It is called AudioLink. Availability date is not known, I have been eagerly waiting for the AudioLink since receiving my Sonnets in 2015. I hope it is approved in the US soon! I am so excited! 1 Watersail reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mary Beth 2,222 Report post Posted September 27 I recently had an opportunity to review the AudioLink with my Sonnet processors. Today I asked Med-El if I could join in conversations here about the AudioLink or if I should wait until they use my review. Med-El said I could join in conversations about the new AudioLink. AudioLink works with Sonnet and Sonnet 2 processors. For bilateral Sonnet/Sonnet 2 users, the sound is heard on both sides. It is very easy to sync the AudioLink to our processors. Very similar to pairing the FineTuner remote. We can use the AudioLink three ways: 1) use the AudioLink by itself as a remote mic worn by someone or set on a table 2) use the AudioLink with cables for true stereo music (separate left/right instrumentals), listening to all audio from any headphone jack, connected to the TV via the dock 3) use the AudioLink with BlueTooth. There are two ways the AudioLink works with BlueTooth. One way is directly for phone calls. The other way is through a BT converter app (A2DP blocker) that runs in the background and allows streaming of music, audiobooks, etc. The AudioLink is not supposed to be used on planes. (Just like the Roger Select/Pen are not supposed to be used on planes.) My favorite features of the AudioLink are: * True left/right stereo for music IF the AudioLink is plugged directly to the sound source * The ability to adjust the mixing ratio * Access to a 100/0 mix ratio (sound source only) * No need to switch to MT or T so never encounter electromagnetic interference Hopefully Med-El US will soon announce a release date and price for AudioLink. 1 Jewel reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveD 19 Report post Posted October 13 Hi Mary Beth and thanks for the review. Does anyone know which version of Bluetooth AudioLink supports? I'll be seeing my audi this Thursday along with the Med-El rep. The rep is supposed to have an AudioLink to demo so if anyone has specific questions I should ask the rep, let me know.

Mary Beth 2,222 Report post Posted October 14 @DaveD It may be helpful for you to have an app on your phone that is an A2DP converter so you can test out how other audio sounds from your phone. AudioLink needs to use that for any audio which is not a phone call in order for it to stream via BT and not use the cables. I look forward to reading your experience with AudioLink after you get to test it out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
