is it just amplification or are words more distinct

It is mainly amplification and because you can pick up say a vocal conversation almost a block away you will pick say the birds chirping etc. The plus is you can pick up a conversation at a great distance.

It is amplification, which to me helps make words more distinct when listening to the television. I find that it is great when I'm watching tv and there are no other sounds around. Or, if I'm having a conversation without a lot of other surrounding noise. This is because it amplifies every sound. So I use my Stealth mainly in those situations, and it is great. My wife likes it, as well, as our tv doesn't have to be blaring -- and she doesn't need to yell for me to hear. Nor does she have to keep repeating everything. To, me it's the best 30-some dollars I've spent. But it does not distinguish or clarify certain sounds. It amplifies.

This is just amplification. It is not to take the place of any medical hearing device.

I bought this for my Mother but from what I gather from her it is just amplification.

I think it does, especially since you can look in the dictionary when it is not your turn. You use mostly short words, and being able to look them up first, you get to learn more two and three letter words

Depending on the adjustment of air it might sound a little. The more you open the adjusment the more it sounds.

It sounds very similar. I would compare it to the type of sounds a xylophone makes, where a stick is hitting bars at different tones.

Yes, and the difference can be significant. Phono signal levels are extremely low and require a lot of boost. To complicate further, mic levels vary depending on the type of microphone. In this case, the "micro" in the "microphone" part of the name refers to size, not whether it works with microphones.

There isn't much of a differce just the way there made and processed. Aside from that it just the difference of speakers.

You would have to hear it for yourself... the extra bass is more pronounced. It's hard to verbalize the sound difference. You would have to listen to the same song with each.

Yes, it can amplify the sound but the great part is that it delivers the sound directly to the ears. Others could listen at a normal level. This one uses infrared which seems to give a clearer sound than the wireless one we had before which was like a cordless phone. However, you must have line of sight to the transmitter.

I would think so. Try putting speakers at different distances from the microphone. Seemed to give better reproduction when they were about 12-15 feet apart.And different tones at different distances.

No, it only claims to prevent differences in volume when changing from one channel to another. I couldn't tell that it made much of a difference.

i think it is intended you use two devices, and I do in situations where it is very quiet and I really need all the amplification I can get. But in "noisier" situations I prefer only one. For example, at church where the music is quite loud, and there is amplification of the pastor's sermon, I use only one.

I have no idea if the machine has that function. It is an outward source of projection, a speaker. So, I don't know if it takes sound in an amplify it. I doubt it has that function, but not positive.

Yes, there is. If you long press on a word, a definition appears in a popup screen. It appears just as a dictionary with pronunciation, part of speech, and multiple definitions ranked by use.

They're the same thing. Most people just dont say maleate since word is long already.

I do not know the answer to the question. What I do know, is that without this instrument, I would be lost trying to communicate by phone. I have to use hearing aids to communicate with other people, and this gadget makes it possible to talk by phone. The amplification is adjustable, while in use, and I have yet to turn the amplification on full blast.

No - it amplifies everything. I just ordered my 2nd one yesterday. Works great for me. ----DSB

No, I don't believe so. My experience is that it only amplifies the ring of the telephone, NOT the voices; however, it is an extremely loud ring, which is what I was looking for.
