Does anyone know where we can purchase " TV Ears" in Chiang Mai.

We miss considerable parts of the dialogue on DVD & VCDs & TV Ears corrects this.

Thanks in advance

Maybe I am an ignorant savage, but what are TV ears?

For most entertainment related hardware try NEO Entertainment Gallery on fourth floor of Airport Plaza. If they don't stock it, they will know who does.

If you're talking about the "rabbit ears" that you put on a tv in order to get better reception, they can be found at almost any local market. I just bought a pair last week for 50 baht at the Mon/Tues night market at the new Rimping.

Having Googled "TV Ears", it seems they are a product for the hearing impaired and I have never seen any in Thailand. So I'm afraid I do not know what to suggest, although you can get wireless headphones from Pantip and Com Plaza among other places, and a cheap amp from Amorn, at Icon Plaza next to Com Plaza.

Seems easy to make an equivalent yourself!

I think I must be too Rabbit ears will improve reception of the signal, but.....We miss considerable parts of the dialogue on DVD & VCDs & TV Ears corrects this. DVD players are hard wired in other words wired directly to the TV and should never give a problem. Am I missing something?

Just a speaker placed near to the watcher right ?

As I understand it, TV Ears is a technology with wireless sound reception for the hearing impaired, not a way of improving the TVs reception, but a way of channeling the sound from the TV to the viewer.

I think that the problem lies, not with the OP's hearing ability, but with the quality of audio reproduction on a lot of the DVD's

We miss considerable parts of the dialogue on DVD & VCDs There is nothing wrong with my hearing, but I often miss parts as well. Maybe it might be time to invest in some new audio equipment

So apart from having to wear a headset (which doesnt really appeal to me), what methods can be used? Any audiophiles around?

According to Googled info, Rabbit ears consist of a pair of headphones, wirelessly connected to an amp sitting beside the TV. The amp is hard-wired to the stereo output of the TV or the DVD player.

Should be easy to make oneself from cheaply available equipment.
