History
Zounds was founded by Sam Thomasson, an Engineer and entrepreneur who has spent his career developing new technologies in the medical device and consumer electronics industries. Sam is also the father of a hearing-impaired daughter and has witnessed the problems associated with today's hearing aids. Sam promised his daughter that he would develop a hearing aid to address the key problems common with other high-end hearing aids. Zounds' breakthrough technology is the fulfillment of a father's promise to his daughter and the solution for dissatisfied hearing aid users around the world. Zounds utilizes a combination of internally developed and exclusively licensed technology from Acoustic Technologies, Inc., where Sam Thomasson is the founder and former CEO. At Acoustic Technologies, Sam created high-performance technology to improve voice and sound quality in phones and automotive communication systems. For Sam, it was a logical extension to leverage this superior technology at Zounds.

We call that the fit, which is as important, if not more important, than the piece of equipment. The best hearing systems on the market and the expertise to adjust them so they fit exactly with your way of hearing. That's the Zounds difference.
