Wireless link to use my headphones?

David Segall

I have noise canceling headphones that I would like to use with a
wireless connection to my television set. Is there a device that I
could plug into the TV headphone socket that would transmit the stereo
audio to a matching device that I could put into a shirt pocket and
plug my headphones into it.

SC's not so high-tech mono solution to your problem:

It's rather interesting that there does not appear to be products
readily available to fill this niche... I could do with one myself.

there are small low powered FM radio transmiiters, in your pocket
you'd put an ordinary FM radio.

I did look but I did not find a quality, wireless, noise canceling
headphone. Even if I found one I suspect that each of those adjectives
costs around $100.00 and I already have two thirds of what I need. I'm
happy with my Sennheiser PX 250 <http://tinyurl.com/sennheiser2>.
Wireless would allow me to fetch a cup of coffee without pausing the
TV program.

How about this one?:

Don't know about it's availability outside of Italy/Europe.

Elektor magazine is covering it in their December issue:

Instead of noise-cancelling, why not just get enclosed phones ?
To be honest, the answer is because I believed a Bose advertisement I
read in an airline magazine after trying to watch a movie
<http://www.bose.com.au/site/about_bose/technologies/index.aspx?path=products&CTRL=PTCH&pfid=&tid=6>.
I assumed that both the Bose and my, cheaper, Sennheiser earphones
were "enclosed" in addition to noise canceling.
That way you
won't get the weird phasy effects than NC gives.
I agree that this effect is noticeable when you first turn on noise
canceling but I don't notice it after a few seconds.

Anyway, which enclosed earphones would you recommend that would have
comparable performance to noise canceling ones on a 747.
