Most Trusted Brand for Over 20 Years ... used by Millions Worldwide

The TV•Ears® wireless headset weighs only 2 oz and is designed to rest under the chin so it won’t mess up your hair, become hot, or uncomfortable. It also features naturally angled ear tips designed to fit comfortably inside the ear canal and direct the sound straight into the ear.
We have studied the anatomy of the human ear and created an improved acoustic experience by changing the angle of the audio output in a more ergonomic style allowing for better audio reception. By setting the angle of the ear tip, we have created an unobstructed path for the audio to travel from the headset’s speakers right through the ear canal. This direct audio path provides a much clearer and richer TV listening experience every time.

Snap-Fit Charging Technology
The TV•Ears® Headset features a new charging mechanism that wraps around the prongs in the charging base providing a more secure fit and ensuring a consistent charge every time.
We call this Snap-Fit Charging. When you place the headset into the charging base, it will securely “snap” into position and the charging light will illuminate.
You can be sure the headset is properly seated and charging when it is snapped into place and the charging light is on. For best results, gently place the headset into the charging base and do not force it into position.

How to Plug it in
The transmitter is plugged into an electrical wall outlet and into your television’s Digital Optical, 3.5mm, or RCA “audio out port”. These ports are located on the back of your television and look like these images.
To connect using the Digital Optical port, simply remove the plastic caps from both ends of the included optical cord. Plug one end into the “Optical Out” port on your TV and the other end into the “Digital Input” on your transmitter. You may need to ensure your TV’s audio format is set to PCM in the settings menu for a perfect connection.
If your television doesn’t have these “audio out ports,” you may need an adapter or can connect directly to your satellite or cable box to stream audio to your headset.

These advanced Comply™ Foam ear tips conform to the shape of your ear to provide an acoustically sealed chamber that blocks distracting background noise while enhancing the clarity of the television’s audio.

Understanding Battery Life & Battery Care
To help prevent premature battery wear, charge the headset for a full 14 hours upon arrival before first use. Avoid storing the headset unused for extended periods of time, as this can impact long-term battery performance.
A fully charged TV Ears 5.0 headset typically provides up to 4 hours of listening time and a fully charged TV Ears Bluetooth Headset provides 20 hrs of listening time. Higher volume levels draw more power and may reduce overall battery life. Like all rechargeable batteries, performance can gradually decrease over time—especially if the headset is frequently recharged before it has fully drained.
For best long-term performance, allow the headset to fully discharge before recharging whenever possible.
Many customers choose to keep two headsets on rotation—so one is always ready to go—while also helping extend overall battery life and minimize battery memory effects that can reduce charging capacity over time.
