TV Headset (Generic)
Product Description:
TV headsets are assistive listening devices that allow wearers to more easily hear a TV's audio without increasing the volume or disturbing others around them. Some models can also double as personal amplifier systems—hit "pause," and the built-in microphone can switch to amplifying persons speaking and other ambient noise in your immediate environment. Most models are wireless and use a separate wireless transmitter device, rather than built-in Bluetooth.
