Nowadays, there are various TV hearing aids available that help people with hearing impairments enjoy a better TV viewing experience. Among the most popular are TV volume amplifiers and wireless TV headphones for seniors, such as wireless headphones, Bluetooth headphones, and over-the-ear headphones.

Although wireless TV headphones are a popular choice, they have some drawbacks where TV hearing amplifiers offer advantages:

Blocking out ambient noise can be particularly dangerous if a fire alarm or emergency occurs and warning signals go unheard. The OSKAR for seniors, on the other hand, amplifies the TV sound and allows users to stay engaged with what’s happening while simultaneously adjusting the volume to suit their individual needs.
  • Headphones designed for use with televisions are not suitable for hearing aid users. They often cannot be used at the same time, and the hearing aid must first be removed from the ear. With OSKAR hearing system, this is not necessary. It was specifically designed to amplify dialogue: the perfect complement to a hearing aid.
