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

Setup with instructions A family member can usually set this up by following the instructions. The main work is running the loop wire around the room and connecting the TV, which takes some patience but no special skills. It is not a plug-and-play product, so it needs guided setup rather than self-serve. An audiologist can help confirm the hearing aids have a working telecoil.

What it is

Summary

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

The LA-240 is a small-room hearing loop system. It sends TV or other audio straight to a hearing aid's telecoil (the "T" or "Loop" program) through a wire laid around the listening area. The wearer can set volume and tone for themselves without changing what others hear. The kit includes the amplifier, power supply, an optical audio cable, 130 feet of loop wire (covering up to about 750 square feet), a direct connection lead kit, and a microphone on a 4-foot lead. It has optical and coaxial digital inputs plus line and microphone inputs, so one room can feed several sources. It only works with hearing aids that have a telecoil, and the loop wire has to be run around the room.

What setup looks like

  • With a guide
    1. Decide where the loop wire will run around the listening area, then lay the 130 ft. wire along the room's edge or under the rug.
    2. Connect the wire to the amplifier, plug the amplifier into power, and connect your TV or audio source using the included optical cable or one of the other inputs.
    3. Switch your hearing aids to the T or Loop program, then adjust volume and tone on the amplifier. Plan about 30 to 60 minutes, including checking the loop level indicator.
