I would not recommend it for use with a cochlear implant

I bought it for use with a cochlear implant. It works but the sound is very weak and not powerful enough. You can hear it when you are in a quiet room. If you're in a car or on a train, forget it. I would not recommend it for use with a cochlear implant. I am using an N5 processor. I have returned the goods

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • Modernity

Not worth it for iPhone users.

Intended for use with an iPhone. Too much static to use. Tried different batteries, no change. I tried another adapter 2.5mm to 3.5mm. Statics have improved slightly, but are still unusable. It sounded like listening to a radio station that was almost, but not quite, on the same frequency.

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
  • Senior

Terrible sound quality

Lots of interference and distortion when used with bilateral cochlear implants in telecoil mode. The more you turn up the volume, the worse it gets. Not worth the hassle of sending it back. I have Clearsounds CLA7-V2, Clearsounds Quattro, Quattro 4.0, The Bellman and Symfon all have great sound quality compared to this model. Be sure to check out one of these other brands if you need a telecoil loop.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Anything I can add

I can use my phone again!

Last year I had problems with my iPhone 4 with hearing aids. I decided to try the Amplicom NL 100. When my audiologist installed the telecoil setting on my hearing aids, everything worked great. Some volume adjustment is required between the hearing aids, the phone and the neck strap to get the right sound. Now that I have the loop, I'll pack my headphones, earbuds, and bluetooth. I'm thinking of buying another one so I can keep one at work and one at home.

Pros
  • Availability
Cons
  • Obsolete

Difficult but worth it.

We had problems at the start. The audio jack is installed incorrectly. Then we had problems with the volume control compared to the control on the computer. Finally, we had issues with the spool trying to grab onto the neck too tightly. To work really well, the loop needs to have a large shoulder width. We fixed the loop problem with a few feet of 12 gauge copper electrical wire. If he holds the loop well open, the sound comes through wonderfully. Before connecting the coil, make sure theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Not cheap but neat
Cons
  • Everything is fine

It didn't seem to work at all.

Bought for my grandmother who wears induction hearing aids. We especially tried her phone when I called her and tried to speak to her from another room. It seemed to her that it was not very clear. The sound seems to have degraded compared to nothing at all (not to mention the best clarity a good headset can offer). I think because of the way they work, they probably lose a lot of precision along the way. They may offer a lot of comfort, but people who wear hearing aids need more accuracy thanโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Repair
