For better understanding of speech, and to reduce the possibility of misunderstanding an important message, ‘The Hearing & Vision Center’ provides tools to help improve the clarity of sound when in a large venue.

Imagine attending a conference or your worship center and bringing the person speaking right up to your ear. Rather than having sound come through a sound system 50 ft. to 100 ft from you, imagine if sound could be fed straight into your ear. Background noise would be reduced if not eliminated and the volume of sound could be adjusted to fit your needs. An Induction Loop System, otherwise known as a Hearing System, can bring sound directly from the microphone and have it fed right into your ear.

Induction Loop Systems work with T-Coil equipped hearing aids. A T-Coil, or telecoil, is a copper wire that is placed within a hearing aid. This T-Coil will pick up sound that is going through a Loop wire, which is placed throughout or around the listening area. The Loop wire can be placed within concrete, a crawl space, beneath carpet, or in the ceiling. You will most often find places of worship, conference centers, airports, buses, and even homes with a Loop System. The Hearing and Vision Center can help with the installation of an Induction Loop System.
