Loop technology consists of a wire that is "looped" around the listening area, a special amplifier, and a microphone used by the primary speaker. Speech signals are amplified and circulated through the loop wire. The resulting energy is picked up and amplified by the "telecoil" found in many hearing aids, cochlear implants and tactile devices or by portable induction receivers. The end result is a high quality amplified reproduction of the original speech signal. Intelligibility is increased because the distance between the speaker and listener is bridged and background environmental noise is reduced
