This is a complete list of the current OAE hardware manufacturers in the market. If you are aware of a manufacturer who is not listed please contact us immediately.
The purpose of these pages is not to provide you with another list of hardware links. We would like to offer you a better service by including a detailed description of each equipment and in the near future technical commentaries from known colleagues in the field. We are also considering implementing a Hardware Frequently Asked Question ( FAQ) Forum, once we accumulate a number of questions. If you have a hardware-related question, please click here.
Editor's Note: All the OAE manufactures in the list below, have been contacted in advance in order to provide information on their products. For a number of manufacturers who have not furnish us with complete product specs yet, the appropriate information has been obtained from their web pages.
The hardware updates links, are activated only for those manufacturers who are sending us news on their products.
