Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The kit has a lot of parts: a transmitter, receiver, mics, neckloop, earphones, and batteries. A family member or teacher can set it up from the manual in about half an hour. Matching it to hearing aids or a cochlear implant takes a little care, so it is not a plug-and-play buy. It does not need a clinical fitting, so guided setup fits.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This is an FM listening system: a transmitter picks up a speaker's voice and sends it by radio to a receiver worn by the listener. It helps when background noise, echo, or distance from the speaker make speech hard to follow. You wear the receiver with a neckloop if you use t-coil hearing aids or cochlear implants. If you don't use hearing aids, you can use the included earphones instead. The kit includes a wireless transmitter with a lapel mic, a receiver with a plug-in environmental mic, and two rechargeable NiMH batteries with a charger. It also comes with an auxiliary audio cable and offers up to 50dB of amplification. The input jack also works with other mic accessories, such as handheld, clip-on, or telephone adapters, but those are sold separately.
