Abstract (en)

The device has a signal processing unit (3) processing an incoming audio signal, and a loudspeaker (4) converting the processed audio signal into an acoustic output signal. A control device (5) adjusts the signal processing in the unit based on the requirement of user profiles (6A, 6B), where the profiles are stored and activated for the individual adjustment of signal processing to different users. A hearing testing device detects individual hearing loss of the users and produces control parameters for the adjustment of the signal processing.
