Listening To TV Has Never Been Easier!

We’ve all spent a lot of time at home over the past few months. And isolation may have revealed some hearing problems in your everyday life. Have you had trouble understanding video chats with your loved ones? Have you noticed that the volume on your TV is rather high? Fortunately, there are many solutions to help make your life easier!

Some TV listening systems can transmit the sound from your TV directly into your hearing aids, making it easier to listen and less effort to understand. One of the advantages of this type of system is that the TV signal is amplified according to your hearing loss, and then broadcast directly to your hearing aids. So if your hearing loss affects high-pitched sounds, your hearing aids will correct the TV signal only for high frequencies.

You are able to choose what you want to hear. You can choose to hear only the sound from your TV or you can balance the TV volume with ambient sounds and conversations. The choice is yours!

If you would like help in connecting your TV listening system to your hearing aids, consult your audioprosthetist or your specialized educator. He will be able to help you.

Even if you don’t wear hearing aids, there are TV listening systems for you. These systems use wireless headphones to amplify the sound of your TV. That means you can move around the house while listening to your favourite shows at a comfortable volume.

Even better, this system allows you to watch TV with another person. Both people can watch at the same time, at completely different volumes.

An audioprosthetist or a specialized educator will be able to assess your needs and let you know about the options available to you. You can also visit boutique.lobe.ca/en to see the TV listening systems available online.
