Abstract
A method operates a hearing device in an audio presentation system. In this case, the hearing device has a wideband transmitter and a narrowband receiver. The audio presentation system has a plurality of audio transmitters that operate using narrowband transmission and are arranged so as to be spatially at a distance from one another in the intended usage state, and a plurality of wideband transmitters that are arranged so as to be spatially at a distance from one another in the intended usage state. A variable that is characteristic of a position of a hearing device relative to the audio transmitters is initially ascertained by the wideband transmitters of the hearing device and of the audio presentation system. A specific one of the multiple audio transmitters of the audio presentation system is then selected to transmit audio to the hearing device on the basis of this characteristic variable.
