Advantages of a Loop System
- Businesses or venues that install loop systems have virtually no maintenance on the system and do not have to purchase or maintain/sanitize/repair headphones such as those used with infrared or FM systems.
- There is no limit as to the number of users of the system – it is virtually unlimited.
- Users do not have to “advertise” their disability by using headphones – they only have to turn on their T-coil – so there is no stigma attached to the usage of the loop system.
- Users benefit from the loop technology AND their customized hearing aids for the best possible hearing experience. The loop system helps the hearing aid do its job.
- Loop technology uses a universal standard system any T-coil equipped instrument user can use at home in a TV room or worldwide.
- All hearing aid T-coils work with all loop systems. Cochlear implants also have T-coils.
- Listeners use hearing aids they own. Sound is optimized for their personal hearing loss and needs.
- Improved clarity and understanding benefits businesses and individuals.
- A loop system has a reasonable cost to install with minimal or no maintenance.
- Loop systems don’t require you to purchase, maintain, and replace portable receiving units.
- Portable units can be purchased for those without suitably equipped hearing aids at $145 each. We include one receiver for monitoring purposes. ADA requires headsets for 1% of seating occupancy so a 400 seat room would need 4 loop receivers.
