hearing the television and radio
The use of music, sound
effects and its overall
pace can make TV view-
ing with hearing instru-
ments take a little longer
to get used to. Depend-
ing on the fidelity and
sophistication of your TV’s
sound system, sit eight
to ten feet in front of the
screen with the TV volume set to a normal,
comfortable level for others.
Adjusting to the radio will depend on the envi-
ronment in which you’re listening, and whether
it is an AM or fM station. It will likely be more
difficult to fully
understand an
AM station while
riding in an auto-
mobile than an
fM station play-
ing on a larger
sound system in
your home.
