Choosing Your Wireless TV Headphones
I think it's obvious why people would want wireless TV headphones. Who wants to be attached to their television with wires? The choice of wireless of wired always seems to involve a little sacrifice in audio quality, though if you're not particularly picky, then you may not even hear a difference between wired and wireless headphones.
The Convenience Of Wireless Headphones For TV
If you're not abnormally sensitive to sound quality, as not an audiophile, then you will probably be fine with wireless headphones. If you've ever experienced an upgraded car stereo system, did it just sound louder with deeper bass, or did it feel like a whole new world of sound was opened up to you? If you answered with the former, then you'll definitely notice no audible difference going wireless over wires, although you will notice the convenience of having no wires. If one person is, say, working on some articles on his computer, and another wants to watch TV in that same room, the person working may not appreciate the distraction. Wireless TV headphones are just the solution in this case.
To Some, A Wireless TV Headphone Set May Help Increase Audio Quality
Also, a good set of wireless headphones for TV will direct and optimize the sound for one person as opposed to many. Even those who aren't audiophiles will hear a difference. Stereo is much more...stereo, and there's various sounds that you simply missed before that will come in loud and clear. A lot of science goes in to optimizing speakers, so it stands to reason that if there's only one person listening, it makes a lot of sense to have speakers that are pointed at that one person and intended only for that one person. Your television was designed to produce sound that was meant to be heard by many people - a whole room full if necessary. As opposed to wireless TV headphones, certain sacrifices would've been made to broaden the range of the speakers much further than the one sitting right in front. This may or may not negate the impact that simply being wireless can have on audio quality.
The Different Types Of Wireless TV Headphones
There are three different types of wireless TV headphones, though two of them are pretty similar. There is Bluetooth and RF (radio frequency), which are the similar ones, both working off of radio waves, and then there infrared which works off of light rays. The main difference between Bluetooth and RF is range - RF has a range of around 300 feet, Bluetooth is more like 30 feet. This can be either a pro or a con for Bluetooth, as although you can't go as far away from the transmitter, it won't pick up nearly as much interference, either.
Comparing The Types Of Wireless Headphones For TV
Odds are pretty good that anything radio, RF wireless TV headphones not excluded, will pick up something else radio in today's technologically active world. It could be anything from the electromagnetic field that some equipment puts out on its own to your neighbor's conversation on their cordless phone, but you can bet that something will cause RF to be the least clear of the group of choices here. However, it's also the only type that will allow you to walk around the full range of your home and never lose connection. Infrared will likely give you the best sound quality, but cannot be used outdoors and the receiver must remain within line of sight of the transmitter at all times. - 23812
