Handy Device But With a Price Tag
First up I wanted to state that I don't personally have trouble with my hearing.  So I had to get some other people to help me with the review. Think we came up with some good points.  And here is what we found.<br />First up, this isn't an item intended to replace a hearing aid.  It's more for people who are in the in between stage of still hearing alright, but could use a boost because of minor issues.<br />Setup is easy.  You find a channel on your TV.  Only takes a matter of minutes.  The device has four modes:  Relax, Talk, Listen, and Watch.<br /><br />Relax is a mode where you listen to relaxing sounds.  Nothing special.  And not worth buying the device for.  You can get a free app like this on any smart phone.<br />Talk mode is when you're trying to have a conversation in a loud environment.  Like a crowded room.  I had a couple people help me test this.  Worked fine.<br />Listen mode is for talking on a cell phone.  It's got an annoying latency issue.  But that was probably made worse by the fact I could hear the other person in the other room anyway.  Still it does increase volume like it was made for.<br />Watch mode is for watching television in a loud environment.  Here is where it really shines.  It amplifies the TV volume really nicely.<br /><br />All in all a good device.  A bit pricey, but how can you put a price tag on your hearing?  Recommended.
