The SIMOLIO SM-828D1 / SM-828D2 is a 2.4GHz wireless TV earphone system designed to provide a customized hearing experience for television viewing, offering both hearing assistance and protection. It aims to deliver crystal-clear sound without disturbing others and to prevent hearing damage often associated with prolonged use of normal wireless headphones at high volumes.
The core function of the SIMOLIO SM-828D1 / SM-828D2 is to transmit TV audio wirelessly to the user's ears. It employs 2.4GHz Digital Automatic Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology to ensure a stable, clear, and interference-free wireless connection. This system is particularly beneficial for individuals with hearing impairments, as it addresses the limitations of traditional hearing aids and standard headphones by selectively enhancing TV dialogue while reducing background noise.
The system includes a transmitter and one or two earphones (depending on the model, SM-828D1 for one earphone, SM-828D2 for two). The transmitter connects to the TV or other audio source, and the earphones receive the audio signal wirelessly.
-
Wireless Freedom and Range: The 2.4GHz FHSS technology provides a wireless range of up to 100 feet without obstacles, allowing users to move freely while listening to their TV programs.
-
Voice Highlighting Technology: This feature is designed to reduce TV background sounds, making dialogues stand out and easier to understand. This is especially helpful for those who struggle to distinguish speech from other audio elements.
-
Noise Cancelling Technology: The earphones incorporate noise-cancelling technology to minimize ambient noise, helping users focus on the TV dialogues without distractions.
-
Automatic Signal Control: A special circuit design in the system adjusts for sudden volume changes, ensuring a stable output volume and protecting users' hearing from unexpected loud sounds.
-
BALANCE Control: Users can adjust the right/left volume balance using a dial on the headset. This allows for personalized sound adjustment, ensuring both ears hear equally well, which is crucial for individuals with varying hearing abilities in each ear.
-
TONE Control: The transmitter offers a TONE control with options for Treble, Normal, and Bass. This allows users to select the optimum sound parameters based on their individual sound frequency sensitiveness, ensuring clear reception of the target audio source.
