The Echofone generates the sensation of sound through neural induction, without any mechanical stimulation of the listener’s eardrums. The Echofone extends your hearing perception to sounds well above anyone’s hearing range. Music and sound from any high quality source comes alive with astonishing fidelity and dimension.

Echofone is a straightforward distribution amplifier.

Echofone enables the listener to articulate higher frequencies and overtones via skin and bone conduction.

Just like sound tables that reproduce a low frequency vibro-tactile experience, Echofone reproduces a high frequency vibro-tactile experience.

With the Echofone you can hear sound before the transducers make contact with the body. And, when the transducers make contact, you will experience these higher frequencies and overtones not processed via the ear canal.

The perceptual expansion of overtones above your normal hearing range adds a sense of depth to many recordings. For example, you can close your eyes and perceive where instruments in a recorded orchestra actually are in space. Remarkable, but true!

Using the Echofone adds a realism much in the same context as attending a live concert. Much information about the position of sounds in the recording environment is encoded in the overtones. These overtones can often be above your normal hearing range, however with the Echofone you are able to perceive them. This perceptual expansion adds a sense of depth to many recordings. For example, with the Echofone you can close your eyes and actually sense where the instruments are located in a recorded orchestration. This can significantly affect one's emotional response to music because it involves you more within the music itself, resulting in a more profound psychologically and, perhaps, physiologically effect.

The results are enhanced tone, crispness and depth … greatly amplifying the fidelity of quality recordings. If you have any high frequency hearing loss, such as damage caused by exposure to loud sounds, Echofone allows perception of the full dynamic range of music without missing the high frequencies.

Recommended for: sound therapy sessions, programs with binaural beats, listening to high quality recordings of music, learning languages and other instances where extremely faithful reproduction is required.

Feed the Brain and the Body through the Ear.

The Echofone ensures that the healing effect of music reaches the psychological level of human hearing in the body.

Music's overtones (high-frequency tones that you may not even notice) can profoundly energize and invigorate our ears, brain and total body. The Echofone Ultrasonic Listening System reproduces the fine structural information which is contained in these overtones, and has a direct effect on the emotions of the listener.

Echofone provides a micro-massage to the middle ear and stimulation to the inner ear, enhancing alertness in the temporal lobe of the human brain. This produces an immediate, neurological effect in many areas of the body as well as on the psychological level of human hearing due to the particular organic specification of the ear and brain.

Listening Tips

The Echofone will greatly enhance music and sounds of many kinds from a variety of sources, however, following the recommendations below will assure exquisite listening enhancement.

Use a quality audio source - As Echophone enhances the high frequencies in audio, a player that provides good response in the high-end is preferable. A quality CD player (with dual 1-bit DAC), DVD player, or DAT player will provide exceptional results.

Experiment with the ultrasound transducers - The set of ultrasound transducers demonstrates Echofone¹s ability to generate the sensation of sound through neural induction, without any mechanical stimulation of the listener's eardrums. To experiment with this phenomenon, try plugging your ears while the transducers are postioned on your forehead; you will perceive the sound without using your ears at all.

Listen for special enhancement - Much information about the position of sounds in the recording environment is encoded in the overtones. These overtones can often be above your normal hearing range, however with the Echofone you will be able to perceive them. This perceptual expansion adds a sense of depth to many recordings. For example, you can close your eyes and perceive where instruments in a recorded orchestra actually are in space.

Contrast listening with and without Echofone - When listening using the Echofone transducers you may disengage the ultrasound component of the sound by turning the "Trode" volume knob all the way to the left. This allows you to quickly contrast the Echofone enhanced sound with normal headphone sound. The results are often surprising. You will perceive a loss of tone, crispness and depth with the Echofone ultrasound disengaged.

Echofone extends your hearing perception to frequencies which are ordinarily well above your hearing range. Incoming high-frequency sound is converted to ultrasound and transmitted to transducers which contact your face. The ultrasound travels through your skin into the inner ear, where it is perceived as high frequency audible sound.
