This is perfect for anyone with hearing difficulties. Also very easy to set up and use .

Sound quality is OK, but it is not in stereo, and there is poor synchronisation with lip movement.

If you struggle to hear audio on the tv properly, then this simple set could be for you. I ordered this as I sometimes struggle, especially with various background noises in the house meaning I find it difficult to hear what's going on without subtitles. This simply plugs into the headphone socket of my TV and sits in front of it, transmitting, whilst the headphones receive the signal via IR and hey presto, I can hear what's going on. Don't get me wrong, any audiophile wouldn't be impressed with the quality but if you just want to watch and listen to your day to day tv without needing dolby sound, these do nicely.

Sadly this product arrived in good time but didn’t work

Life changing for hard of hearing people and their families everyone can watch the TV at a comfortable volume for everyone! Fantastic

Very good made life happier

I have to say that when I saw these available for review I was very excited.I tend to use my Bluetooth headphones for watching TV on an evening when the kids are in bed, but you have to go into the settings to connect them, and then the battery dies or the connection gets lost - none of these issues are huge, but they can be annoying when the issues arise.So I saw that these can be connected to Optical output, and I know that if set to optical my TV will automatically stay on that mode when turned on again... all I'd need to do was turn these on and I'll be connected!! Fantastic.And that's exactly what happens... turn TV on, so long as Optical was the last mode used, it would still be there, I turn these headphones on, and I have sound.I had seen other reviews for these headphones whilst I was waiting for mine, and they indicated numerous issues with the quality of the sound... but honestly, I did not find any issues at all.Yes, the sound is not quite as full and surround as it might be with a pair of really decent headphones, but it's absolutely more than adequate for watching TV when you don't want to disturb others in the house. And there's a switch on the back for normal, bass, treble... so I just selected the bass and it really sounds fine. Even for playing games on my PS5 it was absolutely perfect for this.The big bonus is when my mum comes to stay, she's elderly and slightly hard of hearing... I can put my TV to optical and internal, and she can wear these and hear perfectly along with everyone else in the room.The only negative I found is that the weight of the device hanging below you. I haven't put the ear loops on yet, and don't know if that would alleviate that, but it's really not that much of an issue and I only need to use them for an hour or two on an evening.So yes - there are a few reviews with some negative comments, but either the product has improved or I'm just not as fussy I do not know. I found no issues with them and enjoy how much easier they have made my evening TV viewing.
