But if you\u2019ve got <a title=\"Hearing Loss | Decibel Hearing\" href=\"https:\/\/decibelhearing.com\/your-hearing\/hearing-loss\/\">hearing loss <\/a>in Simi Valley, the moviegoing experience can be less than pleasant. Connecting to a <strong>hearing loop<\/strong> can help.<\/p>\n<h2>The Benefits of Hearing Loops<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"hearing loop\" src=\"https:\/\/decibelhearing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/loop.jpg\" alt=\"wire loops\" width=\"379\" height=\"379\" class=\"alignright wp-image-2958\"><br \/>\nA hearing loop, or induction loop, is a system that transmits sound directly to your hearing aids using electromagnetic energy. A complete system contains a sound source, an amplifier, a loop of cable and a receiver or telecoil. Once you\u2019re in close range of the hearing loop, your hearing aids will pick up a clear signal free of background noise. Nowadays, most hearing aids feature built-in telecoils, thin strands of copper wire designed to receive magnetic transmissions from public audio systems.<br \/>\nThe benefits of hearing loops are plentiful and include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Easy, discreet, instantaneous communication access for people with hearing loss<\/li>\n<li>A simple, low-maintenance way for public venues to provide communication access to the hearing-impaired<\/li>\n<li>Universal hearing access for those who wear hearing aids<\/li>\n<li>Compliance with the <a title=\"ADA.gov\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ada.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\">Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)<\/a> and other local\/state laws for public venues looking to improve communication access<\/li>\n<li>An inclusive, welcoming and thriving hearing-friendly community for all<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Looping technology is becoming increasingly popular and widespread in many public venues throughout Simi Valley and Thousand Oaks. Induction loop systems have been set up in arenas, classrooms, auditoriums, churches, airports, malls, shopping centers and, of course, movie theaters. As standardization of t-coil switches by the various <a href=\"https:\/\/decibelhearing.com\/hearing-aids\/hearing-aid-manufacturers\/\" title=\"Hearing Aid Manufacturers | Decibel Hearing\">hearing aid manufacturers<\/a> continues, the number of hearing loop systems is expected to grow in the coming years.<\/p>\n<h2>Other Tips for an Enjoyable Big Screen Experience<\/h2>\n<p>Those with hearing loss in Simi Valley don\u2019t have to rely solely on hearing loops to have a positive moviegoing experience. Assisted listening devices are another way you can give your hearing aids a boost in difficult listening environments. Popular devices include FM systems, which amplify sound and send it directly to your hearing aids via radio signals; infrared systems, similar in concept but utilizing beams of infrared light instead of radio waves; and personal amplifiers that allow users to aim directional microphones in the direction of an audio source to increase its volume.<br \/>\nFor more information on hearing loop systems and other assisted listening devices, contact your Simi Valley audiologist today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Moviegoing is a popular pastime for many people in California and across the country.
