The Verifit 2 is a hearing instrument fitting system that provides users with total control and complete verification capabilities. The Verifit2 is: The only fully binaural system for faster verification The only 16kHz verification system for more complete verification The only platform for paired instruments Office ready & faster than ever The only ANSI compliant RECD system, providing more accurate results The new Verifit2 maintains and sharpens the core benefits that made the original Verifit the market leader in verification. No other system is faster, and no other system can provide such complete verification capabilities. Best of all, software updates are free and can be downloaded directly from Audioscan.com, so the Verifit will always be up-to-date with changes in hearing instrument technology.
