Digital camera reviews of Clarity Professional PL100 Personal Listener Plus
Digital camera Review: Not of any help
Summary: 2 Stars
The company offering this product is good and they may have other products which may be of great value, but this personal listner is no good. The microphone is of low sensitivity and the other person will have to talk right on the microphone for it to catch the sound waves. Also when the unit is in the pocket and the earphone on the ear, the microphone and the ear speaker resonate and make a loud Coooooo sound. This is not a pratical solution to a person who is really hard of hearing.Digital camera Review: SUCT!

It amplified minimally.
I bought a similar gizmo at radio shack for $19.99 that worked much better.
Digital camera Review: Terrific!

I'm slightly hard of hearing in my right ear, and finally got tired of constantly asking people to repeat themselves and straining to hear things in meetings at work. I got this Personal Listener Plus last week and have been enjoying it immensely. I can hear everything in meetings, across the table in restaurants, and watching TV and listening to my stereo is a completely new experience. I never realized how much I was really missing. It's lightweight and fits neatly in my breast pocket. I don't bother with the rechargable batteries, so there are no problems there for me. This is obviously not meant to be a " super deluxe" instrument, but for the price it's terrific.Digital camera Review: This little amplifier saved the day

My husband has 50% hearing in one ear, no hearing in the other. So when his hearing aide quit working the week before an important meeting, it was a big deal! With the hearing aide sent back for repairs, I searched the web and found this Clarity Personal Listener. The seller (an Amazon seller) went out of their way to get it to us quickly.
The device doesn't take the place of his $2,000 programable hearing aide, but it does work exactly as it claims to work- it amplifys sound, has a limited adjustment range for "tone" and is fairly inconspicuous when tucked in a shirt pocket. My husband even cut a hole in the back of his shirt pocket and threaded the earpiece wire through it so it wouldn't be noticable. It helped him get through the day-long meeting. The only trouble he had was during lunch when there was alot of background noise that made it difficult to hear the conversation.
The Clarity Personal Listener saved the day.
Digital camera Review: Works Fine
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my mom. She likes it quite a bit. It provides more amplification than she needs.
I also bought her the "Stealth Secret Sound Amplifier" and she's decided she likes that one a bit better - sound is better for her and her hair hides it pretty well.
Both devices amplify the surrounding sound, so I suspect it's completely dependent on her precise hearing loss.
