Adjust Mix Level

Adjust the mix level until the right VU meter occasionally illuminates the red LED. This is the 

level adjustment for the combined output from Input 1 and Input 2.

If you are using another manufacturers’ receivers with the LT-800, determine the frequency 

of their receivers then refer to Listen’s Frequency Compatibility Tables (pages 15-16) to find 

the LT-800 channel that corresponds with the receiver’s frequency. We recommend 

 

verifying corresponding channel designations on these tables to ensure compatibility  

and provide the best possible reception.

The LT-800 is Phonak compatible and can be set to display Phonak specific channels. See 

page 8 to set Channel Mode and page 14 for specific channel designations.

Adjust Audio Input Level

Adjust the input knob counterclockwise to add gain to Input 1. This will decrease gain 

to Input 2. Adjust input knob clockwise to add gain to Input 2. This will decrease gain 

to Input 1. If you have two audio sources connected to both Input 1 and 2, adjust the 

level of one input using the VU meter, then adjust the output level of the other audio 

source. Adjust the input level until the left VU meter(s) occasionally illuminate the red 

LEDs. Illumination of the red LEDs indicates the unit is in limiting. Limiting is required so 

that the unit does not over-modulate the transmitter. If you don’t want any audio 

limiting to occur, make sure the red LEDs never illuminate. If you want a highly limited 

signal, turn the audio gain up so the red LEDs illuminate often.

Adjust Contour

Adjust the Contour knob counterclockwise if your audio source is mostly voice. Adjust 

the knob clockwise if your audio source is mostly music. The Contour knob adjusts the 

relative equalization of the unit. This equalization boosts or cuts frequencies above 5 kHz.
