Golden Hearing was founded in 2019. We are committed to developing breakthrough technology that will allow generations of consumers to enjoy music the best way possible, even if they are suffering from serious hearing loss. Our innovative set of algorithms allows for a unique hearing experience by realtime adjustment of a given music signal based on personalized preferences and by compensating for hearing loss. Golden Hearing is based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Golden Hearing is a spinoff from a multidisciplinary study group facilitated by Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC). The group was established to develop a new music perception test. This test can be compared to an audiogram but focuses on the unexplored research area of \u200b\u200bmusic perception. In the meantime, the founders of Golden Hearing had the idea of developing software that would automatically compensate a given incoming music signal for hearing loss realtime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our unique \u2018Golden Booster\u2019 software \u2018boosts\u2019 certain parameters which a music signal consists of like amplitude modulation, frequency modulation and timbre. But there is no \u2018one size fits all\u2019 solution. Because personal preferences play a major role in enjoying listening to music, the music perception test was further developed into the <\/span>Golden Hearing Music Perception Test<\/span><\/a> (GHMPT). The result of the GHMPT now determines the booster settings to optimize music perception in any audio device used (headphones, hearing aids, earbuds).<\/span><\/p>\n
