Sensaphonics

All of us at Sensaphonics are deeply saddened by the loss of Singer/Songwriter Glen Hansard and Drummer Frank Beard of ZZ Top.

We were fortunate to know them as part of the Sensaphonics family and as extraordinary musicians whose gifts brought joy to countless people around the world. Our hearts are with their families, friends, bandmates, crews and fans as we join the music community in mourning their loss.

Their music and the memories they created will live on.

As Lorde takes the stage to headline on opening night of Lollapalooza 2026, she’ll be relying on the same philosophy that has guided her live performances since the beginning of her career: hear clearly, perform confidently, and protect your hearing for the long haul.
Many musicians assume that as an artist’s career grows, so does the complexity of their in-ear monitors. Bigger stages must require more drivers, more technology and more hardware, right? Not necessarily ➡️

Since the beginning of her career, Lorde has relied on the Sensaphonics 2MAX, a dual-driver custom silicone in-ear monitor. Our silicone IEMs provide broadband isolation of 37 dB (and as much as 45 dB in higher frequencies). This helps artists hear their mix clearly and at lower, safer levels regardless of how loud the surrounding band, audience, and pyrotechnics may be ➡️

Lorde’s monitor engineer, Kevin Glendinning, also relies on a matching pair of Sensaphonics 2MAX IEMs, ensuring he’s hearing the same sonic picture he’s creating for the stage. “I have had an involvement with Sensaphonics since ‘97,” Glendinning says. “As a patient, a client and customer, it’s been amazing to see their success in the 40 plus years in the IEM and audiology community. Dr Santucci, and his illustrious staff in Chicago, are just phenomenal.” Glendinning, Kevin P. []]

“Sensaphonics for Life.”

Longtime Sensaphonics user and hearing-health advocate, Reggie Watts, made his first-ever trip to NAMM this year, specifically to visit the Sensaphonics team! He stopped by the booth late Saturday afternoon to have new ear impressions taken with Dr. Shannon Switzer and to catch up with artist relations, Claudia Pyne.

Reggie has been using Sensaphonics 3DME Active Ambient IEMs for his performances and loves how they help him stay connected to the energy of the room while keeping his ears safe. His stop at the booth to chat about ears and life made the final hour of NAMM one to remember.

Custom in-ear monitors start with precision ear impressions, and listeners across music, comedy, broadcast, NASA, and NASCAR all trust Sensaphonics for hearing protection and performance monitoring they can rely on.

Thanks, Reggie, for helping us close down NAMM in style — and for continuing to champion hearing health!

Happy World Hearing Day!

Your hearing is powerful — and worth protecting. Make safe listening part of your routine today so you can keep enjoying music for a lifetime!
