Low-Tech Assistive Listening Devices Still Boost Hearing. Every amplifying device has three parts - a microphone, a mechanism to amplify sounds picked up, and a speaker that alters the sound and transmits it to you, Loavenbruck explains. While traditional hardwired assistive listening devices are still popular and inexpensive, wireless technology is getting the biggest buzz.
Hearing aids. Hearing aids help some deaf people hear, but they don't work for everyone.You can take off the hearing aid whenever you want. You can get a new ear mold (so it fits) or, if you need to, even a whole new aid. Some deaf people with hearing aids can speak well.That is because they can hear some speech sounds and practice speaking clearly. A hearing aid will make the sound of eeee when the ear mold doesn't fit in the ear tightly. deaf person may use hearing aids to hear the TV, when someone calls their name, to listen to music, and hear environmental sounds. Suppose a deaf person listens to music when using a hearing aid. First, the sound goes to the hearing aid and is amplified. Second, sound goes through the ear to the eardrum.
