SIMOLIO Portable Wireless TV Speakers with Clear Dialogue for Hard of Hearing, Ideal for TV Watching without Blaring Volume for Seniors, Wireless Speakers for Television with 2 AC Adapters (SM-621D)

The LG TV I use this on was replaced by a Sony Bravia in my lounge which has fantastic sound that has an option to bring out speech, but very costly. Even moved to a smaller room the speech on the LG was still overcome by "background" music or just actors mumbling. I paid £350 for a soundbar plus £40 for an optical cable which was a waste of money.For £102 the Simolio would have saved me a fortune if I had found it earlier.The instructions are very in depth but basically just plug the base into the back of the tv ( used the optical one) and the speaker into a socket, leave 3 hours to charge. (go shopping) I checked the settings recommended on the TV but it had auto set them. Then just pick a programme turn it on and listen. WOW! It works with my Fire stick and Freeview. I have some older tvs in other rooms so on the to do list is to use the other 2 cables on them and see if I can just move the base and speaker to wherever I need to use it. The speaker sits on the base and can recharge on it too but I usually have it closer to me, even when its not on charger it lasts ...well not sure as it has never run out and I only put it on charge when I remember. If I have it on too loud for my partner I just use the headphones which are even better sound. It has everything included for every eventuality. I JUST LOVE IT!!! Thank you Simolio.The reason I gave only 4 stars for volume control is that if you change channels you sometimes have to turn it off and on again... can I give 4.9 stars?. Apart from that I have never had to turn the volume up anywhere near max. so no biggie really.Now I can watch without subtitles and laugh in the face of movie makers who try to drown out speech with loud music.

With this product you get both speakers and headphone as alternative ways of listening to an enhanced quality sound. And you can connect it to many different souces, not only a TV, but many other devices, as it comes with a variety of connecting cables.I am extremely happy to have bought this speaker. Sound is very clear and we finally can watch TV and understand the dialogues. Music and other sounds are usually so much louder than the dialogues, that not even increasing the TV volume is enough to catch what people are saying.Also, I am amazed at how much technology expertise, sense and care have been put into this device. The design is so versatile ! It includes a very light headphone (you don't need to use it you don't want to) + 2 detachable pieces : the base and the speaker.The base is what you connect to the TV (or any other device you would like to listen to, provided that device has one of the compatible sound outputs). You connect the base to the TV with one the several cables provided (you choose the cable depending on the output on your TV you decide to connect it)As for the speaker, you can place it onto the base and keep the whole near your TV. The energy needed by the speaker will then be provided by the base.But you usually don't do that and you take the speaker with you (it has a practical handle on the top of it) so you can listen to it near you. In this last case, the speaker has its own charger if you want to connect it to the mains.When you want to charge the speaker, you can choose between placing it onto the base or connect it to the mains with its own separate charger.Additionally, in case you want to use the speaker on its own and it happens to be discharged, the product has been designed to have a spare battery placed inside the speaker. This spare battery is charged whenever you charge the speaker. The spare battery is therefore always ready so you can continue to use a discharged speaker without connecting it to the mains.As if this wasn't enough, the speaker has a sound output 3.5mm jack for connecting any headphone (one light underchin headphone is in fact provided with the product) so you get use the clear sound obtained by the speaker but listen to it through a headphone and therefore not disturbing other people. If you connect a 3.5mm jack splitter you could connect additional headphones and share the sound with someone else.So much care and thought put into the design (let alone the technical quality of the sound, which really improves the understandability of the dialogues) is accompanied with similar care in the presentation of the product. There is an unmistakeable effort to help the user to succesfully put the product into use, like the small caps that cover the endings of optical cable : they are attached to the cable to avoid the possibility of not removing them before use (they are transparent) but also prevents them to get lost as they remain attached and reusable.I confess I admire the hard work behind this product, as well as I have been gladly surprised by the sound it provides.

My husband has a problem with his hearing and I bought this speaker for him. It is brilliant and he uses it all the time. We had a problem with the set up as the optic cable did not work but my son bypassed it in some way and now it is fully operational. It is on the table next to him as clear as a bell. I would recommend this speaker to anyone who is a bit dead and has to have the television up really loud. A superb buy.

Connected the wireless using the RCA cables, as my samsung smart tv is around 11years old and I cannot find the optical audio out, so obviously doesn't have one, My tv only supports single sound, so when I switch to external there is no sound on my tv.Such a shame I was so looking forward to listening to clear words on the tv, but will have to return it.

For the first time in years I can actually understand what people on the television are saying without having the volume on high. I could even hear people “tut” . I had forgotten people did that. Amazing. I even turn of the subtitles during sporting evens so I can see the score information.It is easy to install and you can carry it into any room so you can hear music or dialogue anywhere.It is so much clearer than tv speakers or a sound bar. I would recommend it to any hard of hearing person who struggles to hear and understand the television.

It great device only you need to get used sound coming from next to you and not at you

I bought this on the basis of the reviews and quite honestly I don’t know how people have voted in favour for this. I found no improvement to the clarity of dialogue - it sounded just like a cheap wireless speaker.I used the optical input and the audio in and no improvement over either. Easy to set up but that’s about it! Sent back for refund.

Really pleased with this wireless TV speaker which has made such a difference. Thought it was a bit expensive but the sound is so clear and no more need to have the television blaring out to hear it and understand what people are saying. Always a case of keep changing the volume up and down as the the volume programmes were transmitted at was never consistant and now the clarity of the speaker means I don't have to do this anymore. I can highly recommend.
