New Hearing Solutions from Amplicomms join the co-operative Xest Range

Feb. 29, 2012 - PRLog -- New to co-operative Xest are some exciting additions in the Amplicomms range of telecom products, specifically designed to make life easier for the elderly or those with hearing, visual or dexterity impairments.

Joining the bestselling Amplicomms PT M4000 Mobile Phone at Xest are also the PowerTel 50 Alarm Plus and TV 150 Hearing Assistant.

The PowerTel 50 Alarm Plus Telephone (http://www.co-opxest.com/Store/product-is-CS1081?amp_pr12) has been designed to offer the ultimate peace of mind, if ever the user found themselves in need of being able to contact someone quickly in an emergency. Featuring a unique emergency call pendent that, when used, will dial a number of pre-set emergency contacts until an answer is received. This big button phone also features hearing aid compatibility and a hands free function.

Also brand new to Xest is the Amplicomms TV 150 Wireless Stereo Headphone for TV (http://www.co-opxest.com/Store/product-is-CS1082?amp_pr12). This wireless headphone listening system means TV and HIFI sound levels can be increased up to 120DB and features automatic volume control to eliminate sudden loud noises and commercials. The adjustable tone also enhances speech clarity, all of which help to ensure the most superior sound quality.

David White, Head of Trading at co-operative Xest says “We are incredibly excited to share with our customers these great new additions in the Amplicomms range. With the success of the PT M4000 big button mobile phone at Xest, it only felt natural to work with Amplicomms once again to provide our customers with other fantastic solutions, such as for those who might require that extra peace of mind when using a telephone around the home or listening to their favourite TV shows at an optimal volume.”
