Abstract
It is now clear that cochlear implants can provide useful hearing for profoundly deaf adults, and that multichannel devices give the brain more information than most single-channel devices. We are in a dilemma as to how to compare the many multichannel devices, because of the language barrier. Virtually no multichannel wearer is equally testable in two, let alone more languages. A test battery that abstracts beyond language is proposed, utilizing carefully constructed non-linguistic syllables and its development underway.
