PLA 240 Small Room Loop Amplifier
Overview
Thank you for purchasing the PLA 240 Small Room Loop Amplifier System.
The PLA 240 Loop System provides a practical solution for hearing aid users to listen more
easily to their TV or audio equipment via the "T" or "Loop " program of their hearing aid.
With no direct connection between the user and a TV or Audio equipment the user is able
to move freely with the looped area and listen comfortably to a TV or audio equipment
without the distractions of normal listening.
The Loop System is used in conjunction with a hearing aid with a "T" or "Loop" program
found on many 'behind the ear' or 'in the ear' hearing aids. The loop system picks up the
sound from a TV via a direct connection or microphone and feeds it to the amplifier. The
sound is then passed to a loop of wire around the listening area, which in turn transmits
the sound inductively (magnetic sound waves) to a hearing aid with the loop facility. The
user may then adjust the loop volume or tone to suit their own hearing preference without
affecting others.
The Loop System is supplied with loop wire.
The loop wire is placed around the inside perimeter of a room that you want to listen in
The sound can be heard anywhere inside the "looped" area and sometimes just outside
the loop as well.
