Oticon MiniFit OpenBass tips – natural sound with improved bass response

Oticon MiniFit OpenBass tip is a high-quality hearing aid tip designed specifically for Oticon MiniFit hearing aids. The OpenBass model has been developed as a middle ground between the standard open tip and the more closed bass model: it sits slightly deeper in the ear canal than an open tip, but its ventilation holes keep the listening experience feeling open. The result is a natural sound with clearer low frequencies and streaming from audio sources.

Why choose the MiniFit OpenBass tip?

The MiniFit OpenBass ear tip is a unique combination of an open fit and enhanced bass reproduction. The ventilation opening of the OpenBass ear tip measures 4.5–5 mm, ensuring a high-quality open sound experience. At the same time, a tighter fit in the ear canal reinforces low frequencies and improves streaming from external audio sources – without causing a feeling of ear congestion.

Benefits:

• Natural, open listening experience without stuffiness
• Better low-frequency amplification than a standard open-tip
• Clearer streaming from external audio sources (TV, phone, music)
• Improved speech clarity also at voice frequencies
• Reduce hearing aid whistling with an open tip more effectively
• Soft, skin-friendly silicone adapts to the shape of the ear canal
• Transparent and discreet appearance
• Fits well in different ear canals

The MiniFit OpenBass tip is suitable for whom?

This model is particularly suitable for:

• Mild to moderately severe hearing loss, especially with low-frequency hearing loss
• For users who want an open feel but need more bass presence than a standard open tip offers
• For users who listen to a lot of music or TV through their hearing aid
• For users with a standard open tip that squeaks

The correct tip model and size have always been determined by the audiologist during the hearing aid fitting. The size and model can often be found in the hearing aid user manual or in the papers received during the fitting.

How to change the MiniFit OpenBass tip

1. Hold onto the earpiece and grip the edge of the tip.
2. Carefully pull off the old tip
3. Push the earphone firmly into the centre of the new tip, all the way to the bottom
4. Press firmly to ensure the tip is properly attached
5. Check the fit and test the sound

How often does the tip need to be changed?

The recommended replacement interval is at least once a month or more often as needed.

Regular replacement prevents earwax buildup, extends the lifespan of your hearing aid, and ensures optimal sound quality. When changing the tip, it's also recommended to change the Oticon ProWax miniFit wax guard.

MiniFit OpenBass - cleaning and storing the mouthpiece

The tips should be cleaned daily, for example with a cleaning cloth. Unused tips will remain usable for several years when kept in their original packaging in a dry and clean environment. The date shown on the packaging is the manufacturing date, not the expiry date.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a standard open tip and a MiniFit OpenBass tip? The standard open tip is best suited for mild high-frequency hearing loss and allows natural ambient sounds into the ear. The OpenBass tip sits slightly deeper, boosts low frequencies more effectively, and enhances streaming – but still maintains an open, airy feel thanks to its vents.

Does this fit my hearing aid? Suitable for all Oticon miniFit hearing aids, as well as certain Bernafon models. Please check your hearing aid manual or your audiology clinic's paperwork to confirm your specific ear tip model. Unsure? Give us a call!

How do I choose the right size? The correct size (6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, or 12 mm) has been determined by the audiologist during the hearing aid fitting. Always use the same size as before, unless you have received a new recommendation.

Can the tip be changed by yourself? Yes – replacement is an easy and quick procedure at home. No tools required.
