Bellman Audio Mino Portable Amplifier for the Hard of Hearing

Do you struggle to hear in particular settings? For many, recognising specific sounds can be difficult, particularly in busy social situations where there is a lot of background noise. This can be isolating, leaving you unable to participate. You may also find that you have to turn the TV and radio volume up to a level that is uncomfortable for non-hard of hearing family members.

The Bellman Audio Mino Portable Amplifier is one of the most advanced and versatile Bellman products to date. As lightweight and compact as a modern mobile phone, this handy little amplifier can be kept in your pocket and allows you to hear better, whether you're at home or out and about.

How Does the Bellman Audio Mino Work?

You can choose to connect your Bellman Audio Mino to your hearing aids or cochlear implants, or alternatively you can just use it with regular earphones. The device uses state-of-the-art digital signal processing to pick up exactly the sounds you want to hear, and filter out those you don't. The sound quality is very clear and the amplifier is easy to use, so you won't find yourself struggling to get it working. 

The Audio Mino is also equipped with a Telecoil, so you can pick up sounds in venues fitted with hearing loop systems if you so wish. On top of that, it can also connect to your TV, radio or MP3. Long lasting, rechargeable batteries ensure that the Audio Mino is able to perform as efficiently as possible.
