ONE-TO-ONE CONVERSATION 

 

   

 

 

 

Remote conversation        

or

 

    Single conversations 

between rooms   

 

    in a group 

 

At home, most couples do not spend all their time 
together in the same room. Have your companion wear 
the Microphone using the 

Neck Cord 

supplied. By 

wearing your Receiver, you will hear the other person 
with clarity, and be able to converse at comfortable 
levels despite being in different rooms. This mode of use 
can also be employed when out and about – whether 
shopping, going for a walk, or simply out with friends.
