Often the first signs of struggling to hear are experiencing problems following a conversation or experiencing background noise interference. The Echo® MiniTechT™ provides excellent amplification in these situations allowing you to enjoy conversations with family or friends, participate in meetings, use out and about or listen to the TV at home.
Echo® MiniTechT™ is an outstanding personal listener which uses the stubby microphone to pick up sound and send it straight to your ears, helping you follow and engage in conversation and chat with your family and friends.
The active tone control function allows you to adjust the bass and treble of the sound. This is useful because you can tailor it to suit your particular hearing preferences. Volume can be easily, quickly and accurately adjusted by large visual and tactile volume buttons with symbols, making the unit easier for those who may have dexterity problems.
The microphone on 1.5m lead can be placed next to the TV to help you hear more clearly. The sound is sent straight to your ears, cutting out any background noise. The microphone can be extended by using the 3m extension lead (sold separately) to increase the distance you can be from the TV or other sound source.
Echo® MiniTechT™ can be used with a digital quality under chin headset, stereo headphones or if used with a hearing aid, a high powered neck loop that transmits the sound to the hearing aid when switched to the ‘T’ setting (check you have the T setting on your hearing aid). The MiniTechT™ comes with both stereo underchin headset and a high powered neckloop, catering for both requirements, giving you excellent value for money.
*The Echo® MiniTechT™ can be connected directly to the TV using an audio lead (audio lead not included – please contact the sales office for more information or it can be purchased here).
The Echo® MiniTechT™ can also be used to listen to a public loop system, using a headset. By activating the T Switch (removing microphone), the personal listener picks up sound from a loop and sends it directly to your ear via the headset. Ideal for listening to a induction loop system in place if you do not wear hearing aids. This function is also very handy for engineers and loop installers to check if the loop operates correctly.
