Headphones with hearing aids I like to use headphones with my computer so the sound does not disturb others. I wear hearing aids in both ears and need to remove them to use headphones, which sometimes do not provide enough amplification. Also, I lose the variable amplification at different frequencies provided by the hearing aids which makes speech much more intelligible. Telephones now work with the Tcoil in the aids.

Dear Mr. Gluck....I also wear hearing aids (Siemens Cielo Life open fit) I purchased a FiiO E6 Portable Headphone Amplifier from Amazon. The sound performance is truly amazing. Try reading up on it and get back to me. I have been using mine over a year now and I love them. Bill P. Conyers, Ga.

You may prefer on-ear or around-ear phones with more clearance, for example the excellent and efficient Sony MDR-V6 or 7506. Small amplifiers can drive the V6 to very high volume, and distortion stays relatively low. They're not cheap [about $70 on average through Amazon as I recall] but great quality for the money.

sound goes directly into hearing aids without speaker phone distortion. clearer and more distinctive words vs just louder. also allows my mother in law and father in law to both be on the phone conversation together since the speaker volume does not disrupt her

Yes, these work great. I don't have to wear my hearing aid with I use these earphones and I hear all that they are saying on tv now. I highly recommend these earphones.

no the headphones only work one or the other say talking or listening. They don't work like they should where you can talk and listen.

You could start with one. I have a more serious loss so I have two. if your hearing is the same in both ears I don't think it would matter. It's a nice small comfortable hearing aid. when you put the right size adapter for your ear you can even sleep with out squealing.

Yes, it works great with digital hearing aides. You can use headphones if you want but it will also work great while wearing the hearing aides.I have two of the Sennheiser. I use the Sennheiser in the den with my hearing aides. At night I take out my hearing aides in the bedroom and use the Sennheiser with headphones. That way I can just take the headset off and turn out the light without having to take out the hearing aides. The headphones that I use are a rather cheap set, about $15.00 but they work great. You should have no trouble with the Sennheiser with or without using the hearing aides.Lewis Yes, it works great with digital hearing aides.

You don't have to use headphones, both have speakers with their own volume control. The actual volume varies a bit depending on what media format is being used and road noise however the grandkids (ages 2 & 4) have yet to complain that they can't hear. There are also headphone jacks for older children.

Most quality audio/visual equipment is shielded to prevent electrical noise from interfering with electronic devices. The most common devices to interfere with wireless headphones are other wireless devices that share the same frequencies as the headphones. I have read a ton of reviews about various wireless headphones and came across a few reviews for Sony's top-end set that said that the headphones are crystal clear but they interfere with wireless routers and cordless phones that run on the same 2.4 Frequencies where the user would be booted offline when trying to use both at the same time. I have not read any reviews about the Sennheiser RS 140 that share similar problems. There are only a few reviews of static which I would attribute to an audio source that is lacking adequate amplification while trying to use in a noisy environment.

Sorry, I don't know. They do amplify quote a bit and I realize that hearings do more than amplify sound, but you may be able to get by without the hearing aid(s).

You have to play music at a high volume for others close around you to hear it. The headphone has little sound leakage, but if others around you can hear music well, you are probably listening at a level unsafe for yourself. When I let my grandson use them, I did not hear sounds. Hope this helps

No, I don't think that other people can hear these earphones under normal conditions. One of their advantages is being able to play quietly. If you listen with only one, the sound is not adequate. You need one in each ear to hear properly. The in-ear design reduces ambient sound, and makes possible comfortable low volume listening.

I don't wear a hearing aid, but I do have a hearing problem and probably should. I find the sound clarity of this phone "fuzzy" on the cordless handsets and my wife, who has perfect hearing has the same problem, so I know it is not just me. I also know it is not a line problem, because my old cordless phones are clear as a bell, just worn out so I can't use them. I would not recommend this phone to anyone with a hearing problem.

I would have to say that it depends how hard of hearing the person is. I have a busted eardrum in one of my ears and i can still hear very clearly and it does not hurt my ears (no feedback noise). For me the Headphones are very helpful, I sometimes wear them so I can hear my favorite shows a bit more comfortably, it's better than having to cranck up the volume on the TV. Hope this helps. I really like my headset.

I wear hearing adis but am not to bad that I can't here. I can use the TrueDio Ears with my hearing aids or with out. My aids are small and go behind my ear with only a small tube going into my ear. so it is no problem. The TrueDio has a volume control on it.

Glad to help. Should mention reason I use the soft pillow headphone. I like to listen to audio books in the night. In order not to disturb my husband's sleep I was using ear bugs......truly uncomfortable. The soft pillow set works well for me. Obviously at price it's not stereophonic but as good as the ear plugs. I also like the volume control on the cord. For me, it's a reasonable cost-wise solution. Other alternative would be to get head sets which for me wouldn't work. Hope this helps you make a decision.

I have trouble hearing. I found no sound system as effective as my hearing aid which I use to watch television.

I've had numerous issues with mine working with my cochlear implants. VERY hit and miss. Try consulting with your audiologist. You may need a special program for your aids.
