Signia Silk Charge&Go IX Review (2025): Price, Performance, and Real User Feedback

Published: Sep 30, 2023 | Updated: Nov 14, 2025

Medically reviewed by:

There aren’t many hearing aids that generate as much buzz as the Signia Silk Charge&Go IX. When it launched, it grabbed attention at CES 2024, won a Best of Innovation award, and quickly became one of the most talked-about releases in the industry. Why? Because it promises a blend of discretion, comfort, and performance in one of the smallest rechargeable CIC (completely-in-canal) form factors ever made.

Silk isn’t trying to be the most advanced hearing aid on the market. It’s trying to be the one you forget you’re wearing — the one that gets out of the way and just helps you follow the conversation.

If you’re one of the many people looking for a (mostly) invisible hearing aid that doesn’t sacrifice clarity or too many modern features, Silk should be on your radar. But marketing is one thing. Real-world performance is another. We dug into the lab data and user feedback to see how it holds up.

What’s New with Silk Charge&Go IX

Silk Charge&Go IX represents a significant leap forward from the previous Silk AX line. Most notably, it’s the world’s first rechargeable, instant-fit, completely-in-the-canal hearing aid. That alone makes it a standout. But the real story is what’s under the hood.

It runs on Signia’s latest Integrated Xperience (IX) platform, which processes incoming audio 1,000 times per second across 192,000 data points. This allows the hearing aid to dynamically track multiple voices in motion—even as you or your conversation partners move. That’s a big deal for anyone who struggles in noisy environments, especially social gatherings where speakers shift frequently.

Pair of Signia Silk charge&go IX with charger and CES award — Signia Silk Charge&Go IX in its sleek, pocket-sized inductive charging case — these award-winning hearing aids earned CES 2024’s Best of Innovation for combining discretion, convenience, and cutting-edge technology.

Signia's Binaural OneMic Directionality 2.0 technology is another notable inclusion. While Silk IX only has one microphone per hearing aid (a limitation imposed by the tiny CIC size), the system still manages directional focus by pairing data between the left and right aids. This processing method helps users maintain focus on the speaker in front of them, even in environments filled with background noise like restaurants or social events.

Silk also introduces support for CROS/BiCROS setups, making it one of the only instant-fit CIC hearing aids that can support single-sided deafness. In practical terms, that means people with no usable hearing in one ear can wear a Silk on both sides—the CROS device picks up sound from the non-hearing ear and routes it to the other side, restoring a sense of spatial awareness.

Other key upgrades:

Integrated lithium-ion rechargeable battery offering up to 28 hours of use per charge
Portable charging case that stores four extra charges
Qi-compatible wireless charging and USB-C wired options
Quick charge feature: 30 minutes = 6 hours of battery life
Click Sleeves made of ultra-soft silicone for instant, secure fit
Remote adjustments and control through the mySignia app

Unlike many hearing aids that require custom earmolds or long fitting times, Silk is ready to wear out of the box. That alone eliminates weeks of waiting and makes the upgrade path far simpler for most users.

How it Looks & Feels

Discretion is the main appeal here. Silk Charge&Go IX is one of the smallest hearing aids on the market. When seated properly, it all but disappears into your ear canal. Only a small transparent pull-tab is visible, which helps with insertion and removal. For many wearers, that invisibility factor is the number one selling point.

The hearing aid body is colored red or blue (to indicate right and left), but that part sits deep in the canal and remains hidden. Only the faceplate is visible, and even then, it’s available in mocha or black to help it blend with skin tone or ear shadow. The matte finish helps minimize light reflections, making the device harder to spot, even under close inspection.

Right Signia Silk Charge&Go IX with black faceplate in right ear — Real user wearing Signia Silk Charge&Go IX with black faceplate — as shown here, the color blends seamlessly into the ear canal shadow, making the device virtually invisible, aside from the clear pull string used to help insert and remove the device. In some cases this pull string can be shortened by your hearing care provider.

Comfort-wise, most users report a surprisingly secure and natural fit. This is thanks to Signia’s Click Sleeve system, which uses soft silicone domes in various sizes. These sleeves conform to different ear shapes, and for many users, the fit is immediate. For those with more unusual ear anatomy or sensitivity, custom earmolds are available (which are made by your hearing care provider). It’s worth noting that comfort and acoustic seal both improve with the right Click Sleeve, and working with an experienced provider makes a big difference here.

Because there are no onboard buttons, everything is controlled either automatically or through the Signia app or miniPocket remote (sold separately). You can adjust volume, change listening programs, and check battery life. While app functionality is somewhat reduced compared to Signia’s RIC models like their flagship Pure Charge&GO IX , the essentials are there, and performance is reliable.

Physically, Silk IX also benefits from the removal of the battery door found in previous Silk models. This not only improves aesthetics but also reduces points of entry for dust and moisture—a common failure point in older CIC designs. Overall, the build quality feels clean, modern, and deliberate.

How Good Is Signia Silk Charge&Go IX?

From a technical perspective, the Signia Silk Charge&Go IX performs respectably in independent lab testing. According to HearAdvisor, it earned a SoundGrade of B, with a score of 3.6 out of 5. That places it in the bottom 15% of prescription hearing aids overall and the bottom 45% of all devices tested.

That’s not a standout score overall, but that’s typical for CIC devices which inherently lack some of the advanced features and microphone capabilities found in larger receiver-in-canal models. Within its own category of in-the-ear devices, however, Silk sits comfortably in the middle of the pack—a fair trade-off for those prioritizing size, discretion, and rechargeability over maximum tech horsepower.

Screenshot of silk scores on hearadvisorwebsite — HearAdvisor test results: Silk Charge&Go IX earned a SoundGrade of B (3.6/5), reflecting average performance for its category but solid real-world utility for an invisible-fit device.

While RIC models often outperform due to their larger size and component space, Silk holds its own, particularly when professionally programmed.

Real-world user reviews paint a similar picture. Highlights from actual feedback (found lower on this page) include:

What people like:

“I wore a much more expensive CIC hearing aid from another brand, and these blow them away in terms of comfort and ease of use.”
“They're rechargeable, invisible, and the sound quality is excellent. App works well too.”
“I can finally hear conversations on my deaf side thanks to the CROS option. It’s a game-changer.”
“Extremely comfortable. I sometimes forget I’m wearing them.”
“They stay in all day and the battery holds up. No issues after 12+ h

Where some people struggle:

“No Bluetooth. I miss being able to stream calls or podcasts directly.”
“They’re so small, handling them can be tricky at first.”
“The app lacks some of the advanced features I had with my RIC hearing aids.”
“I had one minor charging issue early on, but it was quickly resolved by my provider.”

One consistent theme: once people adjusted to the fit and feel, they were happy with the day-to-day usability. People with active lifestyles appreciated the discreet profile and reported no issues with glasses, hats, or even high-intensity activities like golfing and hiking.

Below average return rate for an in-the-ear hearing aid

Another objective measure of how good this hearing aid is comes from how it stacks up to competing in-the-ear models. On our website, ZipHearing, we track and publicly post return rates for every hearing aid we sell. In-the-ear models like Silk typically have a return rate between 30% and 50% — sometimes even higher. In contrast, the Silk Charge&Go IX has a return rate of around 20%, which is well below average for this style.

We believe this lower return rate reflects how well it fits the needs of a specific type of user. It checks a lot of boxes — discretion, comfort, rechargeability, and solid sound quality — in a way that many other CICs simply don’t.

Pros & Cons of Signia Silk Charge&GO IX

Pros

Virtually invisible fit with soft Click Sleeves for all-day comfort and discretion
Rechargeable with up to 28 hours of use and an easy-to-carry charging case
Clear speech focus in noisy environments thanks to Signia’s OneMic Directionality and Integrated Xperience platform
Reliable app-based control for volume and sound settings
Proprietary tinnitus therapy features included

Cons

No Bluetooth audio streaming or hands-free phone support
App lacks advanced features like Signia Assistant or My WellBeing
No manual controls on the hearing aid itself
May be difficult to handle for users with dexterity or vision limitations

Conclusion

Signia Silk Charge&Go IX is an ambitious product with a narrow focus: deliver premium hearing performance in the most discreet form factor possible. It makes a few calculated trade-offs like no Bluetooth streaming and limited app functionality, but it delivers well on its core promise — helping you hear clearly without making it obvious you're wearing hearing aids.

If someone came to me and said, "Hey, I just want the absolute best hearing aid possible. Hearing better is my number one priority," would I recommend Silk Charge&Go IX to them? No. Definitely not. It wouldn't even be in my top six to recommend.

But for the right person — someone with mild-to-moderate hearing loss who values appearance, portability, and ease of use — Silk is one of the best options out there. The combination of rechargeability, instant fit, and dependable real-world performance makes it a strong contender in the CIC category.

Are they missing some bells and whistles? Sure. But the people who are happiest with Silk aren’t necessarily tech junkies or audiophiles. They’re people who want to hear better, stay active, and not think about their hearing aids all day. Silk Charge&Go IX makes that possible.

Customers say

The Signia Silk Charge&Go IX hearing aids are widely praised for their discreet, nearly invisible in-ear design, comfortable fit, and rechargeable convenience, making them easy to wear all day without worrying about battery changes. Many users highlight the clear, natural sound quality—even in challenging environments like restaurants and concerts—and find the quick, portable charging case especially useful. The app provides helpful customization options, including volume and program adjustments, and some also value the tinnitus masking feature. For people with single-sided deafness, the CROS version has been described as life-changing. On the downside, several reviewers note that because of their ultra-small size, these aids lack Bluetooth streaming, which some see as a trade-off. Others mention occasional issues with charger reliability, tinny sound in certain situations, or needing time to adjust to fit and dome selection. Overall, they are seen as highly effective, comfortable, and discreet devices, though best suited for users who prioritize invisibility and convenience over advanced streaming features.

Pleasantly Surprised with my Signia Silk 7IX

I'm really impressed with my Signia Silk Charge and Go 7IX. WIth the right provider, I now find them comfortable to wear all day and the difference in my hearing acuity before and after, is amazing. The unfortunate trade off, between supper small CIC's and no blue tooth (that's why I gave them a 4.5), for me, is acceptable. I've just gone to a quality pair of ear muff style head phones to give me blue tooth connectivity when I need it like in the gym or on a plane. The aids stay seated in my ear without issues with activity and pair well to the Signia app for subtle volume and program adjustments. So that aspect is nice. Charge time seems very fast and I have yet to experience them needing to go back on the charger during use. A 12 hour plus day of use has not been an issue. And, if you are a wax former like me, a simple wipe of the aid with an alcohol wipe in the morning before I put them in and I'm good to go. I will say that my provider has made a huge difference in my rating level. This is my second provider and she has been a night and day factor in my successful experience. To have someone who truly knows these aids and is willing to invest the time and work toward my goals has changed my impression from maybe a 2.5 to a 4.5+. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again.

I'm still getting use to these as I've never had hearing aids before but so far so good. I wanted something as small as possible and rechargeable and these fit the bill. If I had something to compare it with I might have added the last star. The Tinnitus feature on the app is also a plus for me.

Video Transcript:

Hi, my name is Tim and I'm a first time hearing aid user. I just got mine a few months ago. Typical hearing loss because of loud music, noises, no protection, that type of thing. I went with the Signia silk charge and go, for my first set of hearing aids. Mostly because probably my own vanity. And between that, I really didn't want to have to deal with anything behind my ears because I do wear glasses and I didn't want them to be hitting on that also. So I did go with the silk charge and go. And because they're very small, fit right inside the ear canal. I've been really happy with the size and how they work. They're basically invisible when you put them in. I can stick them in there and with the black background there, you don't even really notice that there's anything in there. They come with the little charging case that they fit right in. The case will hold about three charges, so you don't have to have it hooked up all the time. They just pop right in there like that. Charge doesn't take very long. You can get a quick charge. I think it said in, like 20 minutes or whatever the last few, few, few hours, or I'll just stick them on there when I go to bed and do it like that. When I first started, they came with these different sleeves here, and I noticed I seem they seem kind of stuffy to me. I seem like I was more stuffed or whatever. So I experimented with them a little bit and we came up with, like I said, this little I don't know if you can see that open, more open dome type thing. That's helped quite a bit. I don't have quite as much stuffiness as I did. I'll be honest with you. I'm still getting used to them. It takes some getting used to because I haven't worn them before, but so far, so good. I can tell the difference in my hearing, though, that's a definite. I went with zip hearing, everything was just smooth as could be. The prices were excellent. They hooked me up with an audiologist. They were great. No problems there. And like I said, everything's going really good so far. This is my first set, so I've still got that learning curve. I guess it is a little different. A little hard to get used to, but I'm working on it. But as far as the actual hearing aids and the service that I've gotten from zip hearing, no problems at all, first class all the way. So that's my review, and if there was anything else, I'll add a second one. Thank you very much.

Invisible & incredible

These Signia Silk Charge&Go hearing aids are miraculous: they are hidden in your ear and basically invisible, but rechargeable, adjustable via the app on your mobile phone and they deliver great quality sound-even in noisy places like restaurants. And no fitting it’s required because they come with multiple size rubber ear pieces, so they’re good to go on your first audiologist visit. Dazzling!

Comfortable and very easy to take care of

Still getting used to my Signia Silks. VERY comfortable and very easy to take care of. LOVE that they're rechargeable. LOVE that the app lets you adjust volume and "sharpness" on my phone. I'm looking forward to my second appointment because I think they may have to be nudged up to Medium from Soft. I hear better and difficulty hearing has receded somewhat, but I'm looking forward to the possibility of a little adjustment.

Super small and invisible

Hello everyone. My name is Josef. Now I'm 33 years old and this is my hearing aid. Yes, this very tiny and invisible one. Help me to show you in this video some facts about it, what I like and what I dislike. So this is a Signia Silk charging Go Nine. They're super small. They're charging in this power bank on the magnetic clip, so it's very easy to use. I choose this one because I want it very invisible one. I started losing my hearing like when I was 20 and I hated to ask people three times what, what, what and never understand. Never, never really hear well. So, I chose this one now, like four months ago. This is how it looks like. The contact there is that very comfortable rubber seal, which sits in the ear. Here I'm going to show you how simply, you very easily put it to your ear. It's really very easy and it goes all the way in a canal, in the hearing canal, so it's impossible to see it. So, I'm going to show you here a couple more things, but just to describe pros and cons, what I like on it. So, it's really invisible. Very easy to wear, no one so far noticed that I'm actually here having the hearing aids. What's the cons? I would say only it missing the Bluetooth because it's so tiny that it's impossible to have it with Bluetooth. So, I needed to choose if I really need Bluetooth for, like, calling and like, listening to music, but I choose, I prefer the small, tiny one, which are sitting inside of the ear. They're comfortable, not bothering and since I'm young, it was very easy to get used to of them. You can charge this box like by USB-C. It's lasting like five days and each charging for hearing aid so you can wear it for up to, I believe one day and never happened to me that I would drain the battery out. Usually wearing them like 10 to 16 hours depends on a day. So I really like it. I highly recommend. I found it on the Zip Hearing website. They have a great communication and I highly recommend them. Let me show you one more time how it looks like when you use it. When you put it inside of the ear and remove it outside from your back to the charging station. So, simple as it is inside of the ear and now just grab the little antenna and pull it out and that's it. So, here is the Zip Hearing website for you. So, you can find time and make a call. And actually you can have it as a tryout. So, definitely try it out and good luck.

Signia Silk 7ix are great!

I've had single sided deafness for 20 years. I've been waiting for a in-ear CROS hearing aid. I've had the Signia Silk 7 Charge&go IX now for 2 weeks and I love them. I've worn them in difficult situations like a rock concert and a loud restaurant, and I can hear well even if someone is talking on my "bad" hearing side. They're very comfortable and the batteries last all day.

Video Transcript:

Hello my name is Paul and this is my review of some hearing aids I recently purchased on the ZipHearing website. They’re called Signia Silk, and let me tell you exactly the model, Signia Silk Charge&Go 7ix with CROS. What this means is I have single sided deafness, I’m completely deaf in my right ear, and uh I have reasonably good hearing in my left ear but I do have some hearing loss. So uh these are completely in ear hearing aids from the front you can see that they’re not really very visible, from the side you can see in my ear that you can see them and this is what one of them looks like. They’re very comfortable, easy to put in and out, and the amazing thing is that with my single sided deafness, I was never able to hear anything on the right side and now I can, so the way these work is it wirelessly transmits sound from this side into the hearing aid over here which then plays in my ear, so, I can now hold the phone up to my right ear and have a conversation which I could never do before, I can hear people that are sitting on my right side talking to me at dinner or something, much better than I ever could before, I’m really really happy with these hearing aids and the ZipHearing process was great, the people that I worked with were very responsive, very knowledgeable, answered questions quickly, I ordered the hearing aids, they were sent to a local audiologist and made an appointment within a few days, showed up, within 45 minutes they were fitted, adjusted for my hearing situation. I walked out and everything was great. And maybe a few weeks after that I went back for a follow up appointment and we tweaked some settings a little bit but I really couldn’t be happier with the way these hearing aids work, they come with a small charger, it’s about this big that USB charger, so at the end of the day I take them out, put them in the charger, they charge overnight then they’re ready to go the next day, they I dunno, I’ve never worn them long enough where the battery has gone out, the charge seems to last, must last at least 18 hours or something. Again I just I’m really happy with these hearing aids, I’m happy with the way the ZipHearing process worked, I don’t have any particular complaints about anything I’ve just after two visits to the audiologist been very happy with the product, with the ZipHearing experience with the audiologist who fitted me, everythings just been great. So, hopefully this is helpful and again I’ll just repeat it it’s the Signia Silk Charge&Go 7ix with Silk and I got the CROS because I have single sided deafness, but they have just normal versions so you can buy one or two just normal hearing aids if you don’t have single sided deafness situation. I guess I should say the sound experience is very natural, it’s not artificial or tinny or anything, I just hear much better than I used to, it sounds very natural.

A Major Improvement

The Signia Silk hearing aids have allowed me to hear sound in my right ear for the first time in 20 years. A very major plus. The sound is a little tinny at times but overall a big plus. After about two weeks the charger was very sensitive/unreliable about charging the right-side aid, but the local provider gave me a replacement.

Immediately impressed

After wearing a much more expensive in the canal hearing aid from another company, I was immediately impressed by how small and lightweight the Signia Silk were. They fit great. And my Dr was excellent!! All my expectations were exceeded….

Color: Black

Great hearing aids.

The quality sound of the hearing is a change gamer. I can hear conversations from a distance and aware what’s is going on around me. I’m able to distinct speech and clarity way better.

Common questions about Signia Silk Charge&Go IX hearing aids

Bluetooth / Connectivity Rechargeability Controls/Apps Miscellaneous

Choose questions category:

Is this hearing aid Bluetooth compatible?

No, this hearing aid is simply too small to house the components required for Bluetooth connectivity.

Can I stream audio from the TV?

No, this hearing aid is not compatible with Signia's StreamLine TV accessory.

How many hours a day do the batteries last?

Up to 26 hours.

What is the lifespan of the rechargeable batteries?

Signia expects the Silk battery to last 1100 charging cycles, or around 3 years. At that point, a considerable amount of the power cell's capacity will be lost, and a new battery should be inserted, which is something Signia will do. Your hearing provider will ship the devices back to Signia for this service, and there will usually be a cost, ranging from $75-$200/battery.

How will I know when my battery needs to be charged?

You will hear an alert signal to indicate the battery is running low. The signal will be repeated every 20 minutes. Depending on the usage of your hearing aids, you have approximately 1.5 hours to charge your hearing aids before they stop working.

How long does it take to get a full charge?

If plugged into an outlet a full charge takes about 4 hours. If using a Qi wireless charging pad, it will take 6 hours. A 30 minute quick charge will get you up to 7 hours of power.

What if I'm on-the-go and my battery dies?

The charger has a built-in battery that stores 4 full charges, so even without electricity, you can charge your hearing aids by pulling power from the charger battery. If you're going to be "off the grid" for longer than that, Signia recommends buying the Tripp Lite model UPB-02K6-1U power pack, which is a power bank that you can plug your charger into when you need to charge your hearing aids and don't have access to electricity.

Does the charger include a dehumidifier?

It does not. If you live in a humid environment or sweat a lot, we'd recommend purchasing a hearing aid dehumidifier on Amazon, as Signia doesn't have one for this model.

How many charges does the portable charging case hold?

A fully charged case can provide up to four full charges for a pair of Silk devices.

How can I control this hearing aid, and which settings can I control?

The Signia app will give you the most flexibility, allowing you to change volume, program, and base and treble. Or, you can use the miniPocket handheld remote which will let you change the volume and program.

How do I turn this hearing aid on and off?

To turn the hearing aid on, simply take the hearing aid out of the charger, it will auto-start. To turn the hearing aid off, place it in the charger.

Is there any reason not to buy Silk?

Silk is ideal for mild to moderate hearing loss. If your loss is beyond that, Silk is not going to be powerful enough for you, and you shouldn't buy it.

Is this hearing aid CROS compatible?

Yes, Silk Charge&Go IX can be used with the Silk CROS device (shown above).

Can I get this hearing aid with a telecoil?

No, it's not an option.
