Bernafon Leox BTE SP Accessories & Compatibility Guide | Japebo
If you use a Bernafon Leox BTE SP hearing aid, choosing the right accessory is all about compatibility: the correct earhook, tubing, earmould parts, and cleaning/maintenance items that fit your specific Leox BTE SP setup. This guide helps you identify what typically fits the Bernafon Leox BTE SP, how to choose the correct option, and how to avoid the most common ordering mistakes.
What type of hearing aid is the Bernafon Leox BTE SP?
The Bernafon Leox BTE SP is a behind-the-ear (BTE) Super Power model. BTE SP hearing aids are usually worn with an earmould and tubing (rather than small in-ear domes used on many RIC/open-fit models). Because of that, the most important accessories for Leox BTE SP are typically:
Earhooks (tone hooks) that attach to the hearing aid and connect to the tube
Tubing (standard or thin tube depending on the earmould and fitting)
Earmould parts (varies by mould type and provider)
Cleaning and care items to keep sound pathways clear
Bernafon Leox BTE SP compatibility: what matters most
To confirm which accessory fits your Bernafon Leox BTE SP, focus on these compatibility checkpoints:
BTE vs RIC: Leox BTE SP normally uses earhook + tube + earmould, not receivers and domes.
Earhook style: different hooks can have different angles, retention, and sound bore sizes.
Tubing diameter: ensures the tube fits both the earhook and the earmould connector.
Fitting variant: your audiologist may have set up a specific hook/tube combination for comfort and acoustics.
If you’re replacing a part, the safest approach is to match what you already use (compare shape, size, and connector type).
Which accessories are most commonly used with Bernafon Leox BTE SP?
Earhooks (tone hooks)
The earhook is the plastic connector that clicks onto the top of the hearing aid and guides sound into the tube. If your hook is cracked, loose, discoloured, or clogged, replacing it can restore comfort and sound quality.
Tip: If you’re unsure which earhook you need, compare your current hook’s shape (bend/angle) and the tube connection size. Small differences can affect fit and comfort.
Tubing for earmoulds
Tubing connects the earhook to your earmould. Over time, tubes can harden, discolor, or become blocked by moisture and debris, which can reduce volume and speech clarity. Replacing tubing regularly helps maintain performance.
How to choose tubing: Match the tube type and thickness to your current setup. If your earmould uses standard tubing, stick to standard; if you have a thinner cosmetic tube, match that format.
Cleaning & care accessories
Many “sound issues” are actually maintenance issues. For Bernafon Leox BTE SP users, care products are often the fastest fix when sound becomes weak or intermittent:
Cleaning tools for earmoulds and sound bores
Drying solutions to reduce moisture buildup
Disinfecting wipes/sprays suitable for earmould materials
How to choose the correct Bernafon Leox BTE SP accessory (step-by-step)
Identify your current setup: earmould + tubing + earhook (most common for BTE SP).
Check the part you want to replace: earhook, tube, or care item.
Compare visually: angle, connector size, and how the tube attaches.
Replace like-for-like whenever possible to avoid fit and acoustic changes.
If you’re still unsure, choose the safest route: use your existing part as reference (or ask your hearing care professional) before ordering.
Common problems with Leox BTE SP accessories (and quick fixes)
Sound is weak or muffled: check for blocked tubing or a clogged earhook; replace tubing if it’s stiff or discoloured.
Whistling/feedback: tubing may be loose, cracked, or not seated properly; ensure the earmould fits securely.
Intermittent sound: moisture in tube/hook; use drying care and inspect for blockage.
Discomfort behind the ear: earhook angle/fit may be wrong or worn; replacing the hook can improve comfort.

FAQ: Bernafon Leox BTE SP accessories
Does the Bernafon Leox BTE SP use domes and receivers?
Typically no. The Bernafon Leox BTE SP is usually fitted with an earmould and tubing via an earhook. Domes and receivers are more common on RIC/open-fit styles.
How do I know which tube size I need?
The safest method is to match the tubing you currently have (same thickness and connector fit). If the tube doesn’t fit snugly on the earhook or earmould connector, it’s likely the wrong size.
How often should tubing be replaced?
It depends on wear, skin oils, and moisture exposure. Replace tubing when it becomes hard, yellowed, cracked, loose, or blocked, or if sound quality drops.
My sound is low—should I replace the earhook or the tubing?
Start by checking for blockage and stiffness. Tubing is often the first part to degrade, but a clogged or cracked earhook can also reduce sound. If in doubt, replacing tubing first is a common, low-risk step.
Can I use generic BTE parts?
Some items like cleaning tools may be generic, but fit parts (especially earhooks and tubing) should match your Bernafon Leox BTE SP configuration to ensure proper fit and performance.
