Hi. Given that you don't have hearing aids, you may want to consider a Bluetooth receiver, rather than a Bluetooth ear piece. a Bluetooth receiver is something into which you can plug in headphones or headsets and even, if you need one, an amplifier. These are not as popular as all-in-one receiver/headset options, but they are available. Ones that are particularly loud are at http://www.tecear.com and, if you want ordinary models, searching for Bluetooth to 3.5 MM on Google will get you several. Note that you don't want the kind that plug into stereos, these are generally electrically powered and are not portable. I hope that's of use. Aman

I got a set a couple of years ago, but wasn't smart enough to get the ones that go behind the ear. Due to some other ear problems (Tubes and such), I can't wear these anymore. I won't go into the gross details, but suffice it to say they are not practical anymore. I said all that to say this, I do not wear hearing aids. I do not want to drag around ear phones, and all of the bluetooth ear pieces I have tried are not loud enough. I'm not sure which ones I have tried by number, but they are all cheap ones that work fine for people with normal hearing. Please let me know if you have any more questions, and thanks for your help!

Hi Jerry, Do you wear hearing aids? It sounds from your message that you don't, but just wanted to clarify. Thanks Lynda From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Jerry White Sent: Sunday, April 29, 2012 1:18 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Bluetooth ear piece for hard of hearing? Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone has found a good bluetooth ear piece for someone blind and hard of hearing. I was thinking about the SoundID 6, but reports seem to say the touch sensitive volume switch is not very easy to use. I am using an iPhone 4s. Thanks in advance for your help!
