We are often asked to suggest a selection of audio equipment suitable for use by blind people.

In truth, we feel that you can't beat our own product range - special because it's custom built and designed for blind people.

But, to be unbiased, we include below a selection of audio equipment which we have tested.

All models detailed have been inspected by our advisory panel, the majority of whom are blind, and we hope that the information provided will be of assistance.
