| Assistive Listening Systems bridge the gap between your ears and the sounds you do want to hear, while shutting out the noises you don't. These systems combine a transmitter placed near the desired sounds, which is wireless linked to a small receiver that your wear. This receiver, in turn, delivers those sounds directly into your ears. | |||||||||
