Speaking with the voice of experience, the only way to solve the audio problem for seniors is with earphones with adjustable volume. I usually use infra-red or RF earphones and a multiplicity of headsets. The batteries are a pain to change and they run them down by not shutting off the power so I prefer headsets with rechargable batteries that charge by placing the headset on a charging cradle. Just turning the volume up does not work. The low frequencies resonate and boom and drive other people out of the room. Something about the small acoustic cavity provided by the earphones seems to provide an acceptable frequency response even if the earphones dont have a tone control.
