Hard of hearing


My wife is hard of hearing . I am looking for a wifi/blue tooth tv speaker system to put on a kneewall behind the couch. Need suggestions

Most BT systems have audio lag. You are much better off wired.

Or much trial and error ahead for you. Stick with Amazon Prime.

I use a Sony SBS-XB13 for TV and music. It's small and I can put it right next to my ear or close to my good side. It can be plugged in or run all day on battery power. Only problem would be the sound delay, the Sony is fine but others are too delayed to watch TV with. 

The best new hearing aids, in addition to being customizable to one's personal hearing profile, also include bluetooth connectivity... The Phonak Audeo Paradise also has a specific TV broadcast device that further enhances direct to the aid. 

My late wife used to use Bluetooth headphones to listen to television. That seemed to work well for her, and myself as well, as she no longer had to play the TV at high volume to not struggle to hear it. There were no delay issues with the Bluetooth device she was using. although I kind of recall you had to make sure the device you purchased didn’t have that problem.

Later on she needed to get hearing aids. The hearing aids were able to directly receive Bluetooth signals so the headphones were no longer needed. However she said the sound of those, although loud enough, sounded tinny when listening via Bluetooth. So she stuck with the headphones. The hearing aids were expensive top of the line Siemens models that must not have been designed by audiophiles.
