i want to get some wireless headphones so i don't bother my husband w/ the volume while he's trying to do some stuff for work. i don't want to spend $texas though. are there any good <$100 options?

orrrrr

since i already have nice earbuds, is there some sort of wireless adapter that uses optical or rca? i've been looking around but haven't found anything like that. range isn't a huge issue as my chair is about 10' from the tv.

if there's already a thread on this, link it plz. i didn't see one.

gracias

nice thread

I, too, am sick of wired headphones. Also, the ones I have are so uncomfortable that they start to cut into the top of my ear within minutes.

there are plenty for under 100 that are good. I got a set of sony wireless headphones from compusa for 60 bucks that work perfectly.

those are the ones I got, but they were only 60 bucks in store

lol I don't know why that would make a difference... as long as there is an audio output then it should work. I have it on our HD tv upstairs, but it is LCD. I really for the life of me couldn't see why a plasma tv wouldn't work, unless it didn't have the outputs.

yeah I don't know why it would make a difference. lol

I went by best buy & radio shack. BB had that same pair you have but for $100. RS had a crappier pair for $80. I guess I'll have to order some or hit up other stores next trip to raleigh. meh

my wife just bought me a pair of wireless headphones. they are sooooo sweet.

and I just realized I can hit a button on the headphones and skip songs in pandora.

I feel like a cyborg
