Mr. Gary

Greetings all. I wear hearing aids,I can't wear internal bud type earphones with them in, and over the ear ones are impractical as they get uncomfortable after a while. I'd really like a set of over the ear headphones which also amplify the sound, as even with the volume on the keyboard turned up and the headphones on, the volume I'd like is insufficient. I'm sure there are some out there available but of course a recommendation of a make(s) would be far more beneficial, any advice sincerely appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Gary.

I'm not so sure they are available. There are amplifying headphones for people with hearing issues, but they are not made to increase the volume of a line input signal, just ambient sound via a built in mic. I think the only way to boost the volume of the output signal from the keyboard would be an external amplifier with a headphone output. But then you have to make sure you don't exceed the input signal handling of the headphones.
