Description
The TV Adaptor 3.0 provides a wireless connection straight from your TV to your Oticon hearing aids and the Ponto processors - great for use at home, giving you high quality TV sound directly into your hearing instruments (no Streamer Pro required). This dedicated solution for TV listening is easy to install and creates a high-end, natural sounding TV experience.
The TV sound arrives directly to the user’s hearing instruments via high quality wireless technology. The user can choose to hear the TV only through their hearing instruments or join in the conversation by keeping the microphones active.
Features
Ease of use
The TV adapter 3.0 is easy to install and never needs charging. Daily use is both user friendly and secure. Once you've paired your compatible hearing aids to the TV Adaptor, it will be available as a program on your aids - to listen to the TV simply change to the TV Adaptor program. You can even adjust the volume using the volume control on your hearing aids. Indications on the TV adapter give clear status whether transmission is active or in stand-by.
Fashionable design
Its slim, elegant design and inconspicuous appearance makes the
TV adapter 3.0 suitable to be placed either on the TV furniture or
behind the TV set.
Simple Pairing
No need for pushing buttons or
special power up routines, the first time you use your TV Adaptor,
just place your hearing instruments on top of the TV adapter and
they will pair themselves within 60 seconds. Easy!
Multi-user
An unlimited number of users with
compatible hearing aids can listen to the sound from one TV
Adapter, simply pair each hearing aid to the TV
Adaptor.
Dolby Digital and digital stereo
ConnectLine TV 3.0 supports digital sound in two widely used formats: digital stereo (PCM) and Dolby Digital allowing users to benefit from streamed sound from home theatre systems and flat panel TVs.
How many Oticon TV Adaptor 3.0 devices can I pair with my
hearing aids?
It depends on the particular Oticon hearing aids you are
using. All Oticon Bluetooth hearing aids can be paired with up to
four TV Adapters, except Oticon Opn and Oticon Siya which can only
be paired with a single TV Adaptor.
I have more than one Oticon TV Adaptor. How can I switch
between them?
If your hearing aids support connection to multiple TV
Adaptors then you’ll be able to choose which TV to stream sound
from at the touch of a button in the Oticon Companion app, which
you can download on your smartphone. If your hearing aids do not
support multiple TV Adaptors, you will need to pair your hearing
aids again every time you want to start streaming from a new
device.
Supplied with: ConnectLine TV adaptor 3.0, UK mains power supply, 2m TOSLink cable, RCA phono cable, SCART to RCA adaptor, 3.5 to phono adaptor & user guide.
Please note: Contrary to supplier operating
instructions this item is no longer supplied with a scart adaptor

Oticon TV adaptor 3.0 for Oticon hearing aids and Ponto baha ( 3OCONTV3 )
Reviewed by: Mrs Sally A Orrin
I would like to give this aid 5 stars, it connects so quickly and conveys sound to my aids really well, however there is one problem, if my husband mutes the TV to talk to me, I have to get up and switch the adaptor off so I can hear what he says, then to get back to the programme I have to switch it back on. I can use my phone to do this and if I leave the room that's ok but as soon as I return to the room it automatically reconnects and I will have to turn it off at the adaptor. I suppose I expect too much. Hearing loss is frustrating for anyone so to lessen that would be so wonderful.

Oh my, what a game changer! After years of fiddling with weak sound from neck loops and headphones which cut you off from anyone else in the room, this is brilliant. I already use the Oticon app on my mobile and have incoming calls going straight to my hearing aids. So I was looking around to see if there was something which would send the TV sound directly to the aids. This is it. It took just a few minutes to plug in and pairing was almost instantaneous, no buttons or codes. Once the TV is on you can then either use the Oticon app to switch to the TV, or tap the hearing aid rocker switch to scroll through the programs (e.g. ambient sound, coil/loop, TV). In the app you can also personalise the volume for each of these. Seriously, I can't believe how easy this was and the sound is perfect!

Game changer, was umming and ahhing about this but it does what it does really well, so cool to be able to hear sound from the TV directly without annoying everyone with the volume. Oh and separately, had confirmation from HMRC that VAT doesn't apply if you have a hearing condition but you're not registered disabled.

I have standard NHS Oticon hearing aids with the Bluetooth link to Oticon Companion. This has made watching TV, so easy. Easy to follow clear instructions are in the book with the tiny box. It connected to my TV easily using the Toslink & uk power leads included the box. It easily made friends with my hearing aids. It was automatically added to the Oticon Companion App on my iPhone and Apple Watch. There are separate volume controls for the TV ("Streaming"), and the hearing aid microphones ("Surroundings"). I can watch TV at my volume & my wife can watch it at hers. We can chat to each other during the programmes. If you cannot hear the TV easily with your hearing aids then I would highly recommend this great little device. Don't forget to select the button so that you don't pay VAT, so that it is even better value.

This is an excellent piece of equipment. It works extremely well and gives crystal clear sound. It is easy to setup and use. It can be used independently of the tv volume, which can be turned down or even off. I no longer have to keep asking my wife to repeat what was said on the TV.

Just received the unit and the digital sound quality is truly amazing.(Sept 2021) I no longer have to turn up the TV and everyone in the house can listen to the TV at a normal sound level. I control the sound level using the App produced by Oticon on my Android. It was just working out the connection scenario and purchasing the 2 x TOSLink Fibre Optic cables. Connection Connected it via 2 x Fibre Optic TOSlink cables. One from the Sky QBox TOSLink connector to the input connecter on the Oticon.unit. There is also an output connector which the second cable is then connected to the Sound box TOSLInk connector. Note Make sure you change the Sound / Speaker settings on the TV setup to Audio OUT from TV Speaker. It has certainly changed my life and and the difference is amazing Certainly recommend an investment in one of these units .
