The Kuduwave range
The GeoAxon Kuduwave range
Not just a product family: a team of disruptors, each built with daring simplicity to deliver dignified diagnostics. Three headsets, one platform - pick the tests you need.
Meet the range
One headset for every kind of hearing test
Every Kuduwave fuses the audiometer, insert earphones and sound-attenuating ear cups into one lightweight headset that plugs into a laptop. The models differ in the tests they run.
Kuduwave Prime
The booth slayer. Your high-volume hearing hero.
The workhorse for rapid, high-volume pure-tone screening in schools, mines and factories. Automated, rugged and built to take a knock or two - for the professional who wants speed and accuracy without a booth.
Explore the Prime
Kuduwave Pro
Hear the unheard. The audiologist’s new best friend.
Everything the Prime does, plus bone conduction, recorded speech audiometry and extended high frequencies up to 16 kHz. The choice for diagnostic audiology, ototoxicity monitoring and research - in the clinic, at the bedside or in a patient’s home.
Explore the Pro
Kuduwave Ultra
The all-in-one.
The Pro’s diagnostic audiometry fused with tympanometry in both ears at once and ipsilateral and contralateral acoustic reflexes. Find the degree and the type of hearing loss in one session, without swapping a probe.

The Kuduwave Pro, Prime and Ultra on video
A short tour of all three headsets and the software that runs them.
Kuduwave Ultra
Your practice. Unleashed.
For years you have worked within the limits: the limit of the booth, of one machine for audiometry and another for tympanometry, of telling a patient “we’ll need another appointment to get the full picture”.
The Ultra packs a complete audiology command centre into one headset - the power of three:
- High-frequency audiometry. The Kuduwave Pro’s full pure-tone diagnostic suite, up to 16 kHz.
- Integrated tympanometry. Middle-ear function, eardrum mobility and acoustic reflexes, in the same session with the same device.
- A diagnostic force multiplier. The degree and the type of hearing loss in one fluid consultation - no switching machines, no second room.
Other audiometers test hearing. The Ultra also shows you why - from the cochlea to the eardrum - in one session.
Kuduwave Pro
Rethink your workflow: one clinician, one headset, no waiting for the booth
Your practice is often limited by the availability of your sound booth. The Pro doesn’t try to replace the booth; it lets you work far beyond it. While the booth is occupied, run a full diagnostic assessment on the next patient.
The 16 kHz edge
Extended high-frequency testing to catch ototoxic change early - in and out of the booth.
A clinic unbound
From a corporate boardroom to a patient’s bedside: care where a booth can’t go.
Telemedicine on tap
Connect and consult remotely; your expertise is no longer tied to one room.
Kuduwave Prime
Your “mobile” audiometry unit isn’t mobile. It’s a boat anchor.
Think of the logistics of moving a bulky mobile unit across a mine or factory site: the downtime, the lost hours, and the nagging doubt that the bumpy trip from Shaft A to Plant B has upset your equipment.
The Kuduwave Prime replaces that model with one rugged headset and a laptop. Before each session, X-Check verifies the audiometer’s calibration on the spot, so you know the instrument is fit to test - at the first test of the day and the thousandth. (X-Check does not replace regular calibration.)
One health and safety officer can screen an entire shift, moving from one end of the operation to the other without returning to base - reclaiming lost hours and logistics costs.
Every Kuduwave
What GeoAxon Kuduwave portable audiometers offer
Yes, it’s truly booth-free
For decades the sound booth has been a bulky, expensive necessity. We built the Kuduwave to make it optional: attenuation at the ear, live noise monitoring, and results validated against sound-booth audiometry in peer-reviewed studies. We invite any sceptic to read the research.
Diagnosing hearing loss, not causing anxiety
Many patients dislike the box. The Kuduwave brings diagnostics into the open: a personal, face-to-face consultation where the patient feels like a person, not a test subject. For us, that is the baseline for respectful, effective care.
Accuracy you can check
Audiometers built on analogue components can drift. The Kuduwave is digital, and X-Check lets you verify its calibration on demand before any session, with the result on screen - evidence, not faith.
Your best audiologist, in ten places at once
Automated test protocols let trained technicians run consistent screenings on the front line while your specialists oversee several tests at once - and keep their expertise for the complex cases.
GeoAxon software
The software that runs every Kuduwave
The free GeoAxon MOS software runs the tests, manages unlimited patient records, produces reports and checks your Kuduwave’s calibration status, from one Windows interface - with tele-audiology and encrypted cloud backup built in.
