My Samsung S4 cellular provides superb clarity at maximum volume. But making international calls to medical and being put on hold for 20 minutes incurs horrendous charges.

Even amplified regular telephones produce LOUD muddy sounding voice that hurts my ears and does nothing to clarify many words.

If it was not for what I have experienced on the Galaxy S4 I would settle for "cannot be done - forget it".

I am considering making my own home speaker system. But the task is daunting. Before I waste time chasing unicorns I am asking for help and advice.

I suspect you are asking about good old fashioned hard wired phones as in "POTS".

Yeah, in having to deal with hearing impaired parents I tried some different amplified phones geared for the hearing impaired..

Tried a clarity brand, what a piece of junk.. Not only did it amplify the other persons voice but amplified YOUR voice on YOUR end, not to mention amplified EVERY NOISE in YOUR ROOM..

Was not able to use the amplifier on that phone, was a waste of $80.

Replaced that with a RCA big button phone, has some amplification (20 DB)which seems to be enough without being too much.. What a difference.



Find it HERE for $20

That phone has worked well for my Dad who is nearly deaf and almost blind..
