A unique way to be able to hear the sound from your TV clearer and louder.
April 9, 2016 
Turtle Beach, famous for their video game accessories, has a very interesting product which can offers welcomed help to those with hearing loss. It's called the HyperSound Clear audio system and it has the ability to direct a beam of clear sound so that only the person(s) in the 'sweet spot' can hear it. The kit includes a controller module and a pair of thin-film reflecting speakers. They can be used with standard TV speakers or a home theater setup. The amazing thing is that only the person at the HyperSound sweet spot hears the beamed 3-D-like sound. I had a quick demo which proved to me it works. I walked over to couch and stood at the sweet spot, but couldn't hear the sound. But as soon as I sat down into the 'sweet spot" I could hear fine. The object is that the person who needs to hear better can sit in that seat and enjoy a significant benefit in the ability to understand TV program dialogue or the music or whatever." A HyperSound Clear system isn't cheap, priced at about $1,675. But it's not so bad when you consider hearing aids run into the thousands. You may have actually heard this technology at Best Buy and some other retail display kiosks for the video game blockbuster Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. That application allows customers to hear video game audio when they approach the display but to not distract other shoppers throughout the store.
