I currently wear hearing aids... Given that I am hearing impaired, are these units volume strong enough that I will hear TV well??

I also wear hearing aids and these work great for me. Just got new aids and have to remove the hearing aids to us the wireless. Have had many units over the years, these are the most comfortable, and have the best sound of any. The volume control is very sensitive, so be careful, it has a lot of volume.

Worked very well for both my Mother and Father, both in their 80's and having significant hearing loss.

Hearing with the IS410 was not a problem even for extreme loss, however you have to be in a narrow sitting range. I perferred the 840 model which has much more control and you can move anywhere in a house.

Yes, even when ur using the headphones u can still control the tv volume. This headphone allows you to have idependent volumes controls.

You can but those are not the best headphones for watching TV. They were made for studio mixing. You'll get too much bass frequencies. Not the sound quality you want for that purpose (Hi-Fi).

YES, I THINK THEY CAN, BECAUSE OF THE SWIVEL in the plastic tube coming from the hearing assist. This company will not refund you if it doesn't work for you, if you OPEN the packaging. Hard to check out without opening the packaging. I'm out $185. because of this. Buyer beware.

Hi. The sound is ok but at higher volumes dialogue tends to sound garbled. I have some hearing loss myself and I prefer to use headphones when I'm using the unit. If you're viewing with a friend a pair of headphones can be used by getting a cheap splitter available at any electronics store. It may even have come with one - I don't remember. Cannot beat the picture quality and sturdiness though.

I bought this for my husband because he is very hard of hearing. Without them, he'd have the TV volume as loud as it could go. They do work. The only negative comment I have is that every other day he needs to replace the batteries. Granted, he is retired and watches a lot of TV, however, I definitely will be shopping for a plug-in model.

It may depend on the type of TV input/output you have. My headphones are connected to a DVR with a Sony rear projection TV, and we can control TV and headphone volumes separately. As I said in my review, I am not totally satisfied with the volume strength. My first set of these headphones put out more volume.

I believe you can. I have a slightly different model (not infra red--I'm able to leave the area and still hear thru the headphones). Others watching television with me can use the customary volume setup that exists with the tv. Hope this helps!

Well, probably. They sound really good, I use them for DJ ing and they are pretty clear, so unless your hearing is totally shot; They sound better than your tv speakers probably.

Plenty loud. I set the TV vol control to midrange and can use a low headphone vol setting. Extends headphone battery life to several hours. They work great for me.

Diane, these will be great for tv. You will hear sounds you never heard from the tv speakers. You may also want to consider a good quality sound bar with sub woofer. I have one and it is fantastic.

I would say "yes." My husband is pretty hard of hearing and even he doesn't set it at maximum volume.

I believe so. I love em! They have given me clarity regardless of how much volume I throw at them. In fact, my ears give in before they have! Planning on buying a couple more for my studio.

I have these. I can move a little but if I turn away from the TV I lose the sound. As long as you mostly face the TV you can still hear.

Yes. The volume of the TV and the volume of the headphones are completely independent. They do sound greatr, but if you use them everyday you can expect them to last about a year or so. They tend to lose a channel or get annoying static with a lot of use. Otherwise, a good product.

They are headphones, not a TV.Jokes aside, havent tried it. It depends on if your TV has a headphone jack or not.
