More Bandwidth for More Speech
Amigo uses every bit of its broader bandwidth to provide clear, consistent access to vital speech cues. Compared to some FM systems that divert valuable high frequency bandwidth on transmission of non-speech data, the Amigo T30/T31 uses the full bandwidth to deliver the speech signal, to help improve speech intelligibility to make language development, learning and socializing easier for the child.

Capturing High-Frequency Speech Information
Today’s advanced hearing solutions employ extended bandwidth to capture key high-frequency speech cues – a benefit that FM systems should take advantage of.

With its 8500 Hz bandwidth, Amigo T30/T31 transmitters can make the soft consonants stand out more clearly. By capturing more high-frequency information Amigo can deliver more speech.

Verification You Can Trust

• Amigo doesn’t alter the gain in the receiver; so audiologists can trust the signal to remain stable and avoid overdriving the output of the child’s hearing instruments.
• Amigo makes it easy to comply with the latest Hearing Assistive Technology verification guidelines.

Team Teaching
In today’s schools, teaching is often dynamic and interactive. Teachers move around a lot – as do students. And just as classmates often work in groups, teachers often run classes in pairs. In Team Teaching situations, teachers need to know they can be heard – even when they’re talking simultaneously. The Team Teaching transmitter – the T31 – supports natural interaction by sending the voice of both teachers directly to the child’s FM receivers.

With no artificial cut-offs, teachers won’t have to stop and wait for each other; they can relax and communicate freely. The students with hearing loss will experience the teacher’s dialogue in much the same way as their normal-hearing peers, and therefore they will also be able to respond naturally and participate actively.

Amigo Silencer Function
Amigo takes every opportunity to reduce noise during quieter periods. Whenever the teacher stops talking the Silencer function in the Amigo receivers lowers the receiver noise by 8 dB, so the child doesn’t get unnecessarily tired or distracted. During these ‘breaks’ the child will find it easier to communicate with their classmates. Naturally, the moment the teacher starts talking again, the Silencer immediately releases.
