Gaming Headset for hearing aids.

I'm hearing impaired, I can't use a headset i have Bluetooth enables hearing aids and I have a device called com pilot 2 made by the same manufacture as my hearing aids I would love to be able to use that for my headset headsets are not amplified enough and is not programmed to make up for certain frequencies that I have a hard time hearing and I can't wear a headset over the aids because of the high pitch feedback. this com pilot enables me to converse on the phone i can have this device plugged into the tv i can hear the tv just fine i just cant speak to my teammates or even teach unless i type and typing during game sucks

HELP!

Hello johnmorrisoNZL,

Welcome to Xbox Community Forum. Thank you for sharing your concern with us today and we hope that all is well.

We know how important it is for you to connect hearing aids to play games for better quality of gaming. If the device has a way to output sound to your hearing aids then yes, this would be possible. However, this is not possible to Xbox Console if you were to connect your hearing aids via Bluetooth. Fortunately, there is a remote play that allows you to connect console to phone, tablet, or PC by then you may connect your Bluetooth hearing aids on the device you will use for gaming. To set up remote play, you may check the steps provided here: How to set up remote play | Xbox Support.

If you would love to connect a Bluetooth hearing aids to console, Microsoft listens to any feedback and suggestion you have in mind. Please do send a feedback through the channels available: Provide feedback to Team Xbox and Send feedback to Microsoft with the Feedback Hub app.

Sincerely,

I also wear a hearing aid and for Christmas was gifted pair of Turltle beach Atlas Elite headset. I found that with this I don't need to wear my hearing aid as the soundis completelyclear and I can definitely turn up the volume and it allowsme to hear
the game really crisp and clear, keep in mind I only wear one, but it might be something to consider.

Hey Soldier,

My step father was stone deaf even with his hearing aids. We were able to get around this using a pair of cheap headphones hooked up to a digital recorder. It seemed, having the audio right next to his ears rather than it being filtered through that extra
space did the trick. (He knew there was sound but it was garbled even with the hearing aid amplification but when he used the headset it became clear.)

You could try a headset and see if that helps. At the very least removing some of the ambient noise or the "dirty" noise could help with clarity etc.

It really is unfortunate, because I'm no more than 4 ft. away from the Kinect itself. With my hearing loss though, I can't hear you guys through the headset very well, especially when it causes feedback in my hearing aids. It's a lose-lose situation...

You hear that MS!? Your Xbox One audio equipment is NOT hearing-impaired friendly!
