for the listener go unused.
One of the more under-
utilized features in most
hearing aids is the telecoil
or “t-coil.”
A t-coil consists of a tiny
coil of wire wrapped
around a metal core.

around a metal core.
The core will generate an
electric current in the coil
when it is in the presence
of a magnetic field.
Normally, a hearing aid
gathers sound through its
microphone or

microphone or
microphones. It then
amplifies that sound and
sends it into the ear canal
of the listener.
When a telecoil is used as the
input source instead, the
hearing aid bypasses the
microphone and picks up the

microphone and picks up the
electro-magnetic signal
produced by a telephone or
an assistive listening device,
such as an FM system.
The t-coil was
originally designed

whether your hearing
aid has one. The more
you know, the better
you’ll hear.
