No but my audiologist told me they are the same as Signia IX hearing aids which will become available to everyone at TruHearing by the middle to the end of May.
TruHearing is a resource you should check out for any hearing aid. They can tell you if there is an audiologist in your area that works with them.
I hope this helps because for the top of the line Horizon IX hearing aid you are looking at probably $7,000 plus for the pair.
I spoke with a hear.com representative on the phone who quoted $4,250 for a pair of Horizon IX hearing aids.
They said that the Horizon IX is the only hearing aid that has dual background noise and speech recognition technology (that all other hearing aids have only one or the other).
I have both issues and am looking for hearing aids that work for me. I have used three brands which have only helped with amplifying sound.
I am skeptical and wonder why Horizon IX hasn't become well known by word of mouth, if they truly do improve both issues.

Check with your audiologist. She assured me that the new Signia IX platform is the same as Horizon IX. Signia makes the TruHearing hearing aids. I would talk with TruHearing and get a clarification from them.
Good luck.
Thanks for the suggestion to contact TruHearing, and I plan to follow up. I contacted another audiologist that sells Signa IX and was given the sales price of $7490.00 for a set of Sigina IX Hearing Aids. Interesting, strange why there is such a big difference in price between Horizon IX and Signia IX, if they are identical. I can only guess that they simply choose to market them with different prices for each brand.
Price is certainly a factor for me, but just finding aids that actually work for me to hear normal conversation is difficult. After one of my original pair of aids went out, I tried Oticon and Phonak which were no better for me than my one old one. I have spoken to people that I didn't know wore hearing aids and they seemed to have normal hearing. I feel like I'm the only person with my type of hearing loss. I need all features, volume, speech recognition/clarity and background noise. Horizon IX said they have all the features which has led me down the path to research them.
Also they stopped working and I called Hear.com and they told me I needed my charger to get them to work. I don’t carry my charger with me. Also I called Heat.com and stayed on the phone for 10 minutes and they told me they would call me back which they never did
My Signia IX hearing aids sometimes do the same thing. You can buy a charger with a dryer for home. They came with a charger but I exercise a lot outside and it is nice to dry them out when I recharge them.
I would also recommend a portable charger that you can take with you on trips. It will cost you another $200 but it is well worth it for peace of mind.
