Short Description
The Echo MegaLoop Pro allows easy connection to most modern digital TV sets with either line and/or digital inputs (Phono Phono/Toslink/Coaxial) and comes supplied with a remote control. It features an integrated Digital Audio Converter to connect to the digital optical output socket on the TV and is simple to install using the Toslink cable provided.
Product Description
Echo MegaLoop Pro is a more powerful loop that can cover a larger area than a standard room loop system. Loop wire recommended areas for areas covered according to BS EN 60118-4-2006 are as follows:
- 16 sqm to 40 sqm – 0.75mm csa.
- 40 sqm to 65 sqm – 1mm csa.
- 65 sqm to 90 sqm – 1.5mm csa.
A larger loop area can be used if a lower signal strength is acceptable which will depend greatly on your hearing aids or receiver.
Coverage is dependent on the specific installation. Irregular shaped areas, proximity to large metal structures, positioning of the loop cable etc will affect the field strength.
Please note: Some TV brands or models can cut internal speakers when using TV Audio Outputs (Digital Out or Analogue Out). If possible please set the TV Audio Out to “Audio Out and Speakers Simultaneously” which will allow you to hear the sound through hearing aids and TV speakers. Alternatively contact the TV manufacturer customer service for further advise. Before you purchase new TV we strongly recommend to ask TV Sales Team if particular TV model includes this option.
How does it work?
- The Echo MegaLoop Pro converts digital audio signals providing you with amazing sound quality.
- An induction loop system takes sound from your TV or other sound source and converts it into a signal which is fed into a wire fitted in a continuous loop around the edges of the room.
- This signal can then be picked up by a hearing aid switched onto the ‘T’ setting.
- The tone and volume can then be adjusted completely independently from the volume of sound coming out of the TV speaker, so that the TV volume can be set at a comfortable level for others.
