The perceiving person uses a stethoscope.

This is method for patient communication that is used by doctors to speak to patients with hearing impairments:

British doctors recommend using the stethoscope as a hearing aid for patients in such situations (BMJ 2010; 341: c4672). If the patient has the buttons in his ear and the physician speaks softly and clearly into the diaphragm as into a microphone, then sufficient communication is often possible despite hearing problems. The intimacy of the conversation can be preserved by this simple means.
