Wireless TV headphones are one of those inventions that you do not appreciate until you have tried it like automatic seat warmers. Once you use wireless headphones for TV, then you will be hooked. At first it might be to keep the TV noise down for your spouse.

The first time I tried wireless TV headphones was at my parent's hose. To be honest, I kidded him at first. After I tried them I loved them.

I am proud to say that I bought my first wireless Tv headphone soon after. My friends mocked me the first time they saw them. But that ended soon because they all ended up ordering a pair.

The first brands were nearly two hundred dollars. I paid just over one hundred dollars for my first pair. My second pair was around seventy five dollars. As more brands compete the value is getting better.

Most brands offer great customization for each user. If you need more volume in one ear it is easy to adjust. Some people like the stereo versus mono sound adjustment. It keeps every member of the family happy.

The headphones operate on two bandwidths. They are either infrared or RF. Infrared uses a red beam to transmit between the headphones and the base unit. RF technology use radio frequencies. Some reviewers noticed a quality problem with the RF models.

Installation of most units is straightforward and does not require a handyman's skill. The base unit needs to be connected to your TV or receiver. The headset fits in the base unit when not in use. It charges on the base unit. It does have batteries .

I think that you will agree after you have tried them that they are a great innovation. The prices keep falling so there is a solution for almost any budget.
