Are any of the ringing patterns low frequency? I purchased a Krown ringer for my father and it is loud but the pitch is too high for him to hear. Thx

I purchased this unit for my wife who also has a problem with high frequencies also but this Ameriphone SR-200 seems to work just fine for her.

The phones ring loudly and there is no high pitch. I really love the ameriphone.

I really don't know what the frequency is, but I had the exact same situation! I also bought a Krohn for my Dad. He also could not hear it. I bought this one, and we set it to lowest frequency and played with the tones to get it right for him. When we customized the settings for him, which was an fast-easy process, he could hear the phone ring even when he was outside!

It has 4 ring patterns and 4 ring volume settings to choose from.You could try any one of the 4 on each one to suit your needs.

I've had my phone for 8 months and haven't had a dropped call yet (not that I use it terribly often, but certainly more than 16 times ...), and although the ringing tone is very quiet I have never had trouble with volume or quality of voice. Sounds like you either don't have good coverage where you are or you got a bad phone - have you tried a different phone under the same circumstances?

Robert - I had to look to make sure. The ringer makes two sounds - slightly different so you can tell which line is active without having to run to look at the indicator lights. Yes, there is a ringer switch up near the 'line input' socket. The switch has just two settings "off" and "on". There is no "high / low" option. And there is just the one switch. So if you turn it to "off" - the ringing sounds for both lines are silenced and only the indicator lights would be functioning. I'll have to say that this modestly price 2-line phone has continued to work perfectly since I bought it months ago. Hope this answers your question. Dan Robert - I had to look to make sure.

Sorry I can't help you with your problem, but I bought the same one and most of the time I can't get it to ring at all! I've tried replacing the battery, several times and it doesn't help. I am very disappointed with this item. Maybe someone out there has a few answers for my problem?? I would not recommend this item to anyone. I was really looking forward to having the "Christmas chime" during the holidays too - what a disappointment! I've since taken it down. Plus the blue light is so dim you can hardly see it, and I live in an area that is pitch black at night which makes it even that much harder to see! Beware, do not purchase this item, try a different one! Sorry I can't help you with your problem, but I bought the same one and most of the time I can't get it to ring at all!

Yes the sound is of very good quality. I receive up to 30 calls a day, and occasional the volume was higher. That's because the customer on the other end is speaking to low or their volume is too low. Great phone for me.

Not sure. If ringing is too loud, check the right side of the phone. There are several things there that allow you to adjust several things. Hope this was helpful.

Dale, I bought this after another system broke which I replaced. Then I ordered another and the ringtones were like annoying Disney tunes (and I like Disney). You can assign different regular sounding rings to each line. This helps us. There are so few two-line systems available. This one is fabulous!!!!! We also covered it with Square Trade which paid for our first system that croaked.

The ring is a good volume . I am totally deaf and have cochlear implants for hearing. If I can hear it anyone can! Good luck

Kevin: You can buy a second ringer and it will ring the main plugged in chimer and the chime needs to be heard when whichever ringer is used. But not sure about if your had two sets if one of the bell ringers will make both chimes ring. Email the website as I did for another question and they get back to me Website on insert and box. Good luck Susan

I have not had this happen, but I will try to find out tonight and let you know.**UPDATE**Sorry this is coming a bit later, but yes, the ringer will go through the speaker.

We have other phones in the home and have the wall phone sound turned off. I just did check it, however, and it does work.Only adjustment I have is the side lever with down arrow for loud. As stated, I turned it all the way opposite loud to turn off.we did not care for the ring sound.

I have noticed that a lot of manual timers, need to be turned past a certain point in order to "ring" at the end of the time. If u don't turn it past 10 it might not ring loud enough when time is up.

Sound is loud. However when the sound is on loud it is very high pitched. The volume can be changed when on a call.

Thanks Wagner. I will set it that way and see if anything changes over the next day or two and post back here.So much for a day or two, I just tried it and it is very loud now. Mine wasnt refurbished, I bought it new in the package. Werid bug for sure.

yes. But unless it is real quiet, the ringer is very low even at its' highest level

I don't believe you can turner the ringer completely off. As you are probably aware of, the ringer has two pitch settings, LO and HIGH,and the volume settings are LO, MED and HI, but no OFF. Georgia
