The best hearing amplifiers of 2020

If you experience mild to moderate hearing loss and struggle to hear the TV at a normal volume or follow conversations, you may benefit from a hearing amplifier. Hearing amplifiers enhance sound volume and make it much easier to hear more comfortably. Hearing amplifiers are rather like a mini personal PA system that uses microphones to capture sounds and conversation and then processing the sounds and delivering it to your ear at a higher volume.

What is a hearing amplifier?

A hearing amplifier is different from a hearing aid. It will boost the volume of the sounds around you. However, it won’t make up for any hearing loss. Worn either in or on the ear, a hearing amplifier picks up sounds such as from the TV or even from your children sleeping in the adjacent room and amplifies the sound into your ear. Hearing amplifiers are suitable if you have a mild to moderate hearing loss and just need sounds to be made a little louder for you to be able to hear comfortably.

Benefits of using a hearing amplifier

There are many benefits of using a hearing amplifier, particularly during recreational activities, such as:

  • During church services
  • Going to the cinema
  • Watching TV
  • Birdwatching
  • Listening to children sleeping in the next room

A hearing amplifier cannot offer the same capabilities as a hearing aid. They do, however, have the ability to amplify the sound around you to help you hear what’s going on around. But if you notice a sudden change in your hearing or you are experiencing significant hearing loss, then it’s a good idea to book a hearing evaluation to ensure you receive the best solutions for your hearing needs.
