Selecting Dome
The Open Dome is available in three different sizes:
See page 54 and 55. The most commonly used is the 8 mm
(RITE) and M (Corda2) dome. The Plus Dome is available in
one size only. The Open Dome is suitable for hearing losses
up to 70 dB in the high frequencies and is the best option
for most users.
The Plus Dome allows more mid-frequency gain and extends
the fitting range to 80 dB HL in the high frequencies. It is suit-
able if the user wants more loudness or more mid-frequency
gain. Genie will automatically prescribe Open or Plus Dome.
For RITE instruments you also have the possibility of
selecting Power Domes for instant fittings of up to 80 dB
flat hearing losses. The Power Dome is available in three
different sizes, see page 54.

domes.
These are NOT interchangeable. A RITE dome on a Corda
fitting will be too loose and may remain in the patient's ear
when the hearing instrument is removed.
