With the TV Listener, one person can enjoy the television while the other sleeps, reads or studies. Also perfect for individuals with hearing loss, this complete cordless infrared system allows one family member to listen to the TV at a higher volume level than other people who are in the same room. The disk transmitter and ergonomic headset deliver superior sound when used with nearly any TV or audio source, allowing you to enjoy your favorite TV shows or radio programs without wearing a bulky headset.
Infrared technology has no interference, tuning adjustment or frequency drift, and the battery life is longer. Infrared transmits clearly because it uses light waves, just like a TV remote, to transmit sound. The headset receiver then converts the light waves back into high fidelity stereo sound.

What is an IR (infrared) system?
IR, or infrared systems, transmit sound via invisible light waves within direct line of sight. There is added security in an IR system because sound cannot "spill over" to other rooms. Many multiplex theaters use IR systems for that reason.
Questions:
Can other people listen to the TV at the same time using their own volume level while this item is being used?

Questions:
I have an old TV Listener that uses a mic dangled over the stereo speaker to get the sound which is then transmitted by infrared to the headphones. How does this pick up the sound from the stereo/TV?

I didn't find the rechargeable batteries to last very long. Only a few hours so I replaced them with Duracell batteries that have lasted several days.

Questions:
Does this devise allow me to hear a program at an increased volume while my wife listens to it normally in the room? The headsets sold by sony get plugged into the speaker system of the TV and therefore there is no sound for anyone in the room to hear. I need something that allows me to have the increase in volume while others listen normally.

The headset has it's own volume control and therefore the TV can be set at one volume and the headset at another. The headset can get very loud.
