HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted November 30, 2021 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 @MED-EL Moderator What are the differences between the Sonata 2 (mi1260) and the Synchrony 2 (mi1250)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MED-EL Moderator Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 Hi @Mary Beth, the SONATA 2 has also a central electrode lead (as the SYNCHRONY 2) and we've made it MRI conditional up to 3 Tesla, too. But the SONATA 2 still features the slightly thicker implant housing of the previous SONATA cochlear implant. Kind regards, Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimit Posted December 22, 2022 Report Share Posted December 22, 2022 @Mary Beth I have been asked about Sonata 2 implant by someone. To be frank I didn't even heard about it. I have seen Sonata on this comparison page (link given below) which is lacking some necessory features so I have moved on and choose Symphony 2. But when the guy mentioned about Sonata 2 and told me those couple of missing features has been added to Sonata 2 and it still have a huge price difference as compare to Symphony 2, I became curious and started searching and landed on this page. Now, my question to @MED-EL Moderator, if the only difference between Symphony 2 and Sonata 2 is just an extra thickness why it has been priced so much less than Symphony 2? Also why it hasn't been added to this comparison link yet. https://www.medel.com/hearing-solutions/cochlear-implants/cochlear-implant-comparison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted December 22, 2022 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted December 22, 2022 @Jimit Sorry. I do not know anything about the internal Sonata nor Sonata 2. I have the concerto internal on my right and the synchrony on my left. Jimit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MED-EL Moderator Posted December 23, 2022 Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 Hi @Jimit, thank you for your questions. This page gives more information about SONATA 2: https://www.medel.com/hearing-solutions/cochlear-implants/sonata2. The pricing of our hearing solutions in the individual countries worldwide might vary because of different local regulations for medical devices. Similarly, not all implants are featured in the page you're referring to. You can still see an overview and comparison of all the different cochlear implants on the local Spanish page, if you're interested: https://www.medel.com/latam/hearing-solutions/cochlear-implants/cochlear-implant-comparison. Kind Regards, Giulia Jimit and Dianna 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimit Posted December 23, 2022 Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 Thanks Giulia @MED-EL Moderator It's interesting to know how local regulation can make a huge impact on the price of almost similar featuring device. 😊 And that link do have all devices listed. I hope the English version will be updated sooner rather than later. Dianna 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
