What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Cochlear implant subjects' ratings on hearing performance, connectivity, streaming, phone use, comfort, retention, ease of use and controls obtained with their own Sound Processor and the CP1000 Sound Processor.
Time Frame: One year
Non-inferiority of subjects' overall satisfaction ratings for the CP1000 Sound Processor and related components measured following 3 months of use, compared to subjects' overall satisfaction rating for their own Sound Processor and related components measured at study onset.
One year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Speech perception performance of the CP1000 Sound Processor in quiet and in noise.
Time Frame: One year
Data to substantiate the speech perception scores of the subjects for different quiet and noise conditions for different configurations of sound processor and / or accessories.
One year
