Hi, I'm new to your list. I've already found some great information in your archives, so I'm hoping perhaps you can help. We have an artist in residence who is creating a 5-7 minute animation video. We've decided to purchase a touchscreen tablet (like an ipad) and mount it to the wall to display the video. To keep the noise level down, I wanted to get headphones to plug into it. Other staff here think headphones would be germy. So I'm trying to find an audio wand (something you could hold up to your ear as opposed to over your head) that could be easily plugged in. Any suggestions or recommendations of companies for this? What about getting some kind of basic audio-tour equipment? I can't find anything that gives any idea to the cost (all of the companies want to be contacted for a quote). Does anyone have any ballpark figures? Thanks so much!
