Best Wireless TV Speaker for Seniors and Hard of Hearing

1 in 8 of Americans experience some degree of hearing loss, according to NIDCD.

And the number of seniors is also growing ever since 2007 due to declining birth rate.

So if you are a senior or hearing impaired, you are not a lone.

Is there any way to better hear the TV without cranking up the volume or disturbing your family? The answer is absolutely yes! You have at least two economical assistive listening device options, hearing-assisted wireless TV headphones or wireless TV speakers.

Why Do You Need TV Speakers for Seniors and Hard of Hearing?

From traditional TVs to smart TVs with built-in Bluetooth and WiFi, TV technology and design are changing constantly, TV screens become slimmer and sleeker with improved picture quality and definition, but TVs’ built-in speakers have obviously lagged behind in development, with tiny and poor sound.

Poor Built-in TV Sound Quality

Most people will choose to supplement the built-in TV speakers with either a surround sound system or a soundbar, but these devices usually focus on rich sound rather than sound clarity.

And most of the time, the elderly or hearing-impaired like you may still tend to turn up the TV volume when they can't hear clearly, but a higher volume doesn't always mean they can hear the words more clearly (as background noise is enhanced too), and this can be harmful to their hearing, as well as irritate their family members and even neighbors.

Uncomfortable Wireless Headsets

Most wireless TV headsets become uncomfortable after prolonged use, and it can be difficult for you to hear others in the room with your headphones on. Even if you use a hearing aid, you still have to remove the TV headphones and replace them with a hearing aid to hear your surroundings.
