Wireless head phones for TV

by linda6935 - 2/22/09 9:54 AM

I recently bought a Vizio LCD TV and I was given some infrared wireless headphones to use with it. To use them I need audio out on the TV and it doesn't have it. I was shocked because it is a good set. It only has one hole for optical audio out which won't work with them. I really want wireless headphones to work so I can listen to TV when my husband is asleep. Is there anything on the market that will work with my TV? I've even thought of returning the TV but everything I have looked at is also lacking the audio out which I need. Help please.

Linda

Audio Out

The perfect solution. <a href="http://www.pro-audio-warehouse.com"> Pro-Audio-Warehouse</a> has a converter so that you can convert the optical to standard analog. Then you can use you regular wireless headphones. It is the <a href="http://www.pro-audio-warehouse.com/tv1-pof830.html"> Optical-to-Coax Audio Converter</a>. The price is good too.. $22.74.. Can't go wrong..

Sounds like a handy invention, i wish there was a more generic version that is good quality like you said yours are.

The problem is that most TVs don't offer analog outs anymore so you may not be able to use the RS120. You can find a model of wireless headphones that has optical inputs at:
