volume booster headphone

[BosnMate]

With my MXT I use Whites headphones with the volume adjustment for each ear. However, I'm about half deaf, and the max volume is still pretty low for me. Does anyone know of a headphone that has an actual battery powered volume booster built in?

The Navy put a ringing in my ears, and started the hearing loss, and I've been fighting with the VA for several years over, but they keep denying, so right now I don't have hearing aids. All the hearing aids that I've seen get terrible feed back, and I didn't know there was anything that would work under headphones. I'll look into something along those lines, but I think the best would be a headphone that you could boost the signal. I suppose kids would wear those and listen to music to darn loud, hurting their ears, and then sue the maker, so I reckon it's a lost cause.

Maybe try some "ear buds" as these are seated in the ear canal. You might be able to hear them better.
They can be had pretty cheaply: http://www.google.com/search?q=ear+...&resnum=3&ved=0CF4QrQQwAg&fp=499faa430ac3503f

Hi Bosn!
They'll fight you on this, been there done that. Get ahold of your medical records & SRB. As long as your hearing started degenerating in the service, and you have hearing tests during your service showing hearing loss you can get benefits or an increase. Myself, my grandfather, dad & three others have done this. Myself & two others used attorneys that were vets. It can be done but like everything with the VA, it's hurry up & wait. Hope this gives you some help!

My hearing aid don't with my headphones and if they did I most likely couldn't wear them because heat caused by the headphones.


I too missed up my hearing while the Navy. They had done a hearing test in boot camp then one before my discharge and found a slight hearing loss. It the time I didn't notes it much. 17 or 18 years later I went to the VA. I got my hearing aids and 10% disabled check out them. At the time my check was $97. a month and I was taking home about $50,000 a year after taxes. I found the $97 check funny as Hell.


I was told when I was discharged to file for my hearing loss and a bad leg break disablement. I might have gotten 10% to 20%. They told me that I would have to stay in about 6 more months, but I was Hard headed and just wanted out. SOOOO Now looking back $70 to $97 a month for 17 years. Dammed was I A DUMB Butt.

Hey! Moneys money! You worked hard giving to Uncle Sam as a lot of us had. Time for Uncle Sammy to cough up some of the promises that were made to us. We all deserve better without the hassles.

You can get an inline amplifier - I once had a 3 band from radio shack I think - plugged into the box and headphones plugged into the amplifier - worked pretty slick too. Good luck.
