of Regulation 13D-G of the General Rules and Regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on behalf of J.P. Morgan & Co., Incorporated

subsidiary of JPM and the general partner of JP Morgan Capital, L.P. ("JPMCC"),
J.P. Morgan Capital, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("JPMCLP"), Sixty Wall

of beneficial ownership of in excess of five percent (5%) of the Common Stock of
Symphonix Devices, Inc. (the "Reportable Transactions") as a result of the
previously reported acquisition by JPMCLP of 2,460,630 shares of Common Stock of

those shares of Common Stock, totaling 615,090 shares.
Item 1. Security and Issuer

was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future
violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
On December 6, 2000, Sixty Wall acquired 615,090 shares of Common Stock for an
aggregate purchase price of $2,469,586.40. The source of funds used for Sixty
Wall's acquisition was working capital, all of which was Sixty Wall's own funds.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
The shares of Common Stock purchased by Sixty Wall were acquired for investment
purposes and not with the present intention of acquiring control of Symphonix's
business.
As a result of the subsequent transfer to Sixty Wall, JPMCLP now owns 1,845,540
shares of Common Stock and Sixty Wall owns 615,090 shares of Common Stock.
As a result of JPMCLP's transfer of shares of Common Stock to Sixty Wall, Sixty
Wall may also acquire additional shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement.
The Reporting Persons may from time to time acquire beneficial ownership of
additional Common Stock and from time to time cease to have beneficial ownership
of Common Stock, depending on price, market conditions, availability of funds,
evaluation of alternative investments and other factors. Such acquisitions or
dispositions may result from investment decisions by each of JPMCLP and Sixty
Wall.
<PAGE>
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
Item 5.
Interest in Securities of the Issuer
(a) See Cover Pages, Items 11 and 13. JPMCLP may be deemed to beneficially own
1,845,540 shares of Common Stock constituting approximately 9.375% of the
issued and outstanding Common Stock of Symphonix.
As Sixty Wall Corp. is the general partner of Sixty Wall, Sixty Wall Corp. may
be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Common Stock beneficially owned by
Sixty Wall.
As JPMCC and Sixty Wall Corp. are each wholly owned subsidiaries of JPM, JPM may
be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Common Stock beneficially owned by
each of JPMCC and Sixty Wall Corp.
(b) See Cover Pages, Items 7 through 10. JPMCLP is the direct beneficial owner
of 1,845,540 shares of Common Stock. Sixty Wall is the direct beneficial
owner of 615,090 shares of Common Stock.
(c) Except as described in Item 4 hereof, neither JPMCLP nor Sixty Wall have
during the past 60 days, engaged in any transactions in the Common Stock.
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended as follows:
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to
Securities of the Issuer.
None of the Reporting Persons have any contracts, arrangements, understandings
or relationships with Symphonix or with any other person with respect
specifically to the securities of Symphonix, except as set forth below.
The description of the Purchase Agreement set forth in Item 4 hereof is hereby
incorporated by reference. As described in Item 4, JPMCLP purchased 2,460,630
shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, of which 615,090
shares of Common Stock were subsequently transferred to Sixty Wall. JPMCLP has
the right to maintain its percentage interest in the total number of outstanding
shares of Common Stock of Symphonix in the event of future sales by Symphonix of
additional shares of securities from Symphonix under the terms specified in the
Purchase Agreement. As a transferee, Sixty Wall also has the right to maintain
its percentage interest in the total number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock of Symphonix in the event of future sales by Symphonix of additional
shares of securities from Symphonix under the terms specified in the Purchase
Agreement.
In addition, in the event that the market price of Symphonix declines, Symphonix
may be required to issue additional shares of Common Stock to investors,
including JPMCLP and Sixty Wall, at no additional cost to those investors
pursuant to a purchase price adjustment. The purchase price adjustment allows
the investors, at any time until November 10, 2002, to calculate an adjusted per
share purchase price equal to the average closing market price of the common
stock as reported on the Nasdaq National Market for the thirty-three (33)
consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the adjustment. Those
investors who desire to participate in this purchase price adjustment will
receive additional shares of common stock equal to the difference between the
number of shares which each investor could have purchased based on the adjusted
per share purchase price at the investor's original investment amount and the
number of shares originally purchased. Each investor may participate in a
purchase price adjustment only once during the two-year period. A possible
consequence of the investors' right to adjust their purchase price is that the
investors could, in the aggregate, control a majority of the voting power of
Symphonix.
The description contained in this Item 6 of the Purchase Agreement is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement which is
incorporated by reference herein and is filed as Exhibit A hereto.
