Picture
The Williams Sound Pocketalker® 2.0 is a personal amplifier with stereo headset compatibility and an external tone control. It makes one-on-one or small group conversations clearer. It can be used to amplify the volume on your television, stereo, or radio. The Pocketalker® 2.0 has a t-coil so it can be used to connect with counter or room loop systems to hear better in noise or at a distance. By switching the t-coil on, you can use this personal amplifier in venues that have loop systems to better hear a concert or religious service. With the t-coil on, the only sound you hear is the sound from the microphone or presenter, not all the background noise.   It can also be used with a neckloop (purchased separately) to connect with a hearing aid or cochlear implant with a t-switch. This would be helpful with distance or in a noisy situation to deliver sound from the microphone of the personal amplifier directly to the hearing aid or cochlear implant (such as in a car or at a restaurant).

​Items included with the Pocket Talker® 2.0:
(1) amplifier
(1) 2 AAA batteries
(1) TV listening extension cord
(1) plug- in mount mic (allows mic to be handheld
​ or placed near a speaker at a distance)
(1) 2 sets of headsets: earbuds & over the head headset

Effects of Untreated Hearing Loss:
​Hearing loss can have many emotional and social consequences including social isolation, depression, safety issues, mobility limitations and reduced income and employment opportunities. In older adults, hearing loss has also been shown to be associated with poor quality of life, dementia, cognitive impairment, and functional limitations.  http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/82-625-x/2016001/article/14658-eng.htm
