A cochlear implant system has an external housing (301) adapted for placement at a specific location on the external skin of a user. The external housing includes (i) a signal processing module (302) for converting an incoming acoustic signal into a representative electrical information signal, and (ii) a signal transmission module (303) for transmitting across the skin (304) of the user an electrical power signal representative of the electrical information signal. An implanted portion receives the electrical power signal and produces for the auditory system of the user an electrical stimulation signal representative of the acoustic signal. The external housing and the implanted portion magnetically cooperate so as to hold the external housing in place at the specific location without structural interaction with the outer ear of the user.
