| An assisted listening device (ALD) is any type of device that can help you hear better in your day to day communication. An ALD can be used with or without hearing aids. ALDs are designed to help you hear better in many of the situations that are more difficult to hear in due to excessive background noise, arenas where there is a large distance between the speaker and the listener, and rooms that have poor acoustics.
