Is the answering machine loud and most of all clear sounding?

It sounds clear and the volume is average at best. If you are hearing impaired, you should look elsewhere. Hope that helps.

To me the answering machine is not very loud. I have bought three phones and the one I would buy again would be the clarity XL professional. This is a great phone. Everything is adjustable and is loud if you need it to be. You can't go wrong with the clarity.

When I was researching I was looking for the same information and found the response was favorable. I am hard of hearing in one ear and have found this unit to work well for me.

Hmm, it's a bit difficult to understand from the base station since the speaker is a bit small. But we listen to our messages through the headsets which is very easy to do.

Absolutely. I've never had a problem hearing the messages (from the base OR on any of the handsets).

Yes, this phone has an outstanding speaker phone. I use it constantly, and everyone's say's that its sounds very clear on their end.

Yes the phone has fairly loud ringtones I would say louder than most phones. The entire time I used the phone I could always hear it even if the volume wasn't turned all the way up.

No, I agree the volume is low but I was aware of that before I purchased based on previous reviews. Other the that its been a very good system.

They get pretty loud. I'm betting your only issues will be talking on the phone with them. My full face handles calls easily, I'm sure it'll do fine.

Not than I'm aware of but for some reason I have complaints about MIC clarity on voice calls case on or off... Maybe it's the carrier.. Odd because recording quality is near Hi Def sound

Clarity is fine, answering machine will announce the caller and message, or you can listen by any handset.

the volume and clarity on phone calls is quite similar to when listening music

It is definitely loud. My Dad is hearing impaired and has no problems hearing this phone. I think it is also very loud when talking on the phone as well.

If plugged in I expect so. It rings very loudly. However by default you will be in speakerphone mode when you answer

I have the main phone/answering machine. I have an additional handset in each of two different rooms. T paired them to the main unit (phone/answering machine) using the menu on the main system. My issue with the answering machine is that the message waiting beeps are very low for hearing impaired users.

I'm going to say no, this phone is a basic phone . The volume is not really loud not can you make it that way.

Telephone does NOT have an answering machine. But it speaks the incoming phone number loud and clear.

Yes, the handset has a speaker phone feature. The sound is clear and fairly loud even though the speaker is on the back. The handset is curved so the speaker does not get muffled if you set the handset down. I can't speak to the quality on the other end except to say I've had no complaints.

Yes the sound is of very good quality. I receive up to 30 calls a day, and occasional the volume was higher. That's because the customer on the other end is speaking to low or their volume is too low. Great phone for me.

No, the speaker function is by far the weakest feature on this product. My hearing is not bad and sometimes I really have to listen to get the message. Otherwise this is a great phone.
