January 20, 2020 at 1:21 PMIf you use V得了/V不了 with sense verbs like 'to hear' or 'to see', it's talking about the thing that you listen to or see. For example,
这个收音机听不了了 The radio is broken.
电视看不了了 The TV is broken.
*We rarely use V得了 with sense verbs.
If you use V得见 / V不见, it's talking about a person's ability or the situation.
声音太小了，我听不见。The voice is too low for me to hear.
我从小就听不见。I cannot hear since I was young.

January 20, 2020 at 12:40 PMJeremy is right. Let me give you two sentences. Let's see whether you can tell the difference or not:

他太会说了，说得我都相信了。
