  • TV Ears is an American, privately held audio technology company that specializes in voice clarifying television products for the hearing impaired. Through the use of 5.8 GHz and Infrared technology- TV Ears’ products aim to supplement hearing aid devices with an easy-to-use, affordable product that clarifies television dialog for those who do not own hearing aids or would rather not wear hearing aids to watch TV. Since their inception by Vince Primerano, George Dennis and Grant Gaynor in 1998, TV Ears has helped serve over 5 million users worldwide. They are located in Spring Valley, California where they house the North American distribution center, support, and sales teams, while employing approximately 50 people. TV Ears serves hearing impaired customers throughout the world, with their predominant markets being in the United States, Canada, and Europe. TV Ears, or voice clarifying television headsets, are classified as an assistive listening device and are specifically designed for clear and distinct television listening and dialogue comprehension. For this reason, TV Ears are legally able to have a volume of 120 decibels. Using break through digital technology, known as Voice Clarifying Circuitry, the headsets work to automatically and exponentially increase the gain on high frequency sounds. This works to make the words appear clearer from audio tracks that are on television programs or movies. Unlike traditional headphones, TV Ears are worn under the listener's chin where they hook to the ears. With the wireless technology of TV Ears the user is capable of setting a volume and tone that they're comfortable with, without upsetting others in the vicinity. This is in contrast to noise reduction headphones, which hush ambient sounds by creating frequencies that minimize surrounding noise. However, like headphones, TV Ears are designed for single-user use, meaning that multiple sets must be purchased in the home for multiple and different users. (en)
