Bluetooth is the best option if you already have bluetooth in your 
computer. If not, the standard wireless mouse or keyboard comes with a 
piece that you plug into your computer that transmits, and has nothing 
to do with bluetooth. They probably make headsets with the same thing. 
The downside is that you have to keep that little piece plugged into 
your USB port, although they are stating to make the piece very small 
sometimes.

Hello Framers,

Please forgive the off-topic question, but I always get good advice from
this list. I like to listen to audio on my computer while I work. Currently,
I use ear buds plugged into my monitor's speaker port. I would like to go
wireless, but am not sure exactly what I need. I assume that I need a
Bluetooth headset and some kind of USB devise that will stream the
computer's audio to the headset. Any advice or recommendations would be
appreciated. Thank you very much.

Umm, no. In the first place, the USB device that comes with a wireless keyboard

also more versatile than one that uses USB or Bluetooh because it can also be 
used with your TV for quiet late-night viewing (valuable for night owls like 
me). There are IR and RF models available from a variety of companies, but I'd 
recommend sticking with one of the companies who have been making similar 
products for years for the theater and museum markets, namely Sennheiser and 
Sony. IR systems are usually simpler and cheaper, but they are strictly for 
same-room use. RF systems are usually more expensive and may be more subject to 
interference (depending on what frequency band they use), but allow you to 
continue listening if you walk out of the room. 
 
If connecting to the analog audio output is not desirable for some reason, 
there are lots and lots of headsets designed for gaming purposes, some using 
Bluetooth, some using WiFi, some designed to use a USB port. The possible

attached boom mic. If you're only going to be listening, the mic is just an 
annoyance. But if you have a mic you may find yourself more inclined to use 
VoIP, since you'd never have to take the headset off at all.

I am starting guessing that you will not be travelling with this kit. So:

Wireless kills music. So, if you really love music, before you do the
shopping, go to a HI/FI or a computer shop and get a listening test of
different cans, wired and wireless, and you will find that you would
be paying deerly for the wireless.
I have found both earbuds and headphones (cans) to be more tiresome
for my ears than speakers. For the price of good wireless cans, you
can get rather good speaker systems for the computer.

I used to be in the Hi/Fi business many years ago and have always been
enthusiastic about these things as this link may prove.

OT: Wireless headset

[Ashish Gupta]

Hi Rick,

My experience says:

   - Bluetooth is only one of the options. Don't let it be a filter to being
   with. Infrared and RH frequency can be great too depending on your needs.
  - If you plan to use these across various rooms in the house and in
  the immediate neighborhood, then RH ones. They work in the line
of sight. If
  you have other appliances working on RH frequencies then don't go for the
  RHF ones. They get interference. RHF-operated ones are cheaper too.
  - If you are plan to use it with your cell phone as well, then
  Bluetooth it is.
   - If you want to do recording in noisy places, then it'd be better to
   have bidirectional microphones.
   - They come with the base unit which attaches to the PC. It better attach
   using a USB connector than a 3.5 mm copper jack.
   - IMHO, don't go for a headphone (without mic); buy a headset (with mic).
   It is a 2-in-1 device for almost the same price.
   - Don't go for a device offering anymore than 2 channel outputs. Having
   an in-built woofer would be good if you listen to music, but anything more
   (like, say 5 channel output!) is only for gaming and listening to high-end
   music (if your audio content is itself 5.1 to being with).
   - If you want to use them with mobile phone, while driving, and while
   conversing too, then consider monaural ones. Else stick to binaurals.
   - If you plan to use them with your mobile, first check the compatibility
   (for differences based on versions).
   - You might want to make sure they run on standard AAA re-chargeable
   batteries. In my experience the proprietary batteries are a nuisance.
   - I do not know if they are available in the market, but I'd want a pair
   that runs on ONE single AAA battery. I possess one which run on 2 AAA
   batteries and their weight seems to double after every hour of wearing them!
   :-)


If I may, the best way for market research would be to decide on budget (a
range) and make a priority list of 2 or 3 specs you are looking for, based
on your needs. One size will never fit all. You, for sure, know the best.


regards,
Ashish
