Subject: [teitac-committee] Definition Consensus Decision: Enhanced Audio
Following is the definition for Enhanced Audio. If you do not agree that this definition is acceptable, please reply and state your reason. Please note that this definition was added to support 1.1-E - With Limited Hearing. If the committee decides to rewrite the 1.1-E provision, the definition is not needed and will be removed. Consensus for this definition includes accepting the definition and agreeing to removing it if no longer needed.
Enhanced Audio
"Audio which has been enhanced through amplification and/or through a variety of audio filters to make it easier for people with hearing impairments to understand."
