You want something with a little power when watching films although it is not necessarily that loud. I have a simple home theatre sound system set top box on the television in the living room, even thought the subwoofer annoys the neighbours at night (seems like it really reverberates …), as well as the family, naturally.
So, over the past years I’ve used a pair of wireless Sony surround sound headphones past midnight. The sound quality is the best and doesn’t bother anyone even if the volume is really loud. For a while there was some wi-fi interference (it is a Sony product after all 🙂 ) Recently I’ve been using without ear pads and it was comfortable … but it looks like they’re now falling apart. Each time I wear them, black pieces keep falling off (laugh) Well, I thought it was something new from Sony, there are no new updates around. Even though there appears to be other makers working in their area, it seems like theres little demand with few options. An optical port is almost the only choice available for Sony. Hmm … Well, it is okay to just buy it as instructed but doesn’t feel ideal. I wonder why there’s no demand in the first place?
While you're thinking about it that way? I thought there were some Bluetooth headphones, but I wonder if they can be used. The point is that there should be a device that sends audio via Bluetooth before the audio output. There seem to be many people who think so, so I found multiple candidates in one shot. Among them, there are optical terminal IN & OUTthis​ ​, a chance to start over and check how much brushing is left with a smartphone app.
The size is roughly half that of an iPhone 7. Usb powered. While easily paired, it’s a bit annoying that it resets when turned off and on. The sound quality is still nothing special, but it sounds good enough when used with the stereo and is pretty useful. Most important of all, its feels good that I was able to make good use of some high-performance headphones.
I’ll stick with these for a while.
