Over the years, I've seen several requests for wireless headphone systems. The limitation of most consumer systems is latency -- delay through the wireless link due to digital encoding and decoding f
WOW! $200 Bucks!? Here 27 to 30 db of hearing isolation, you won't hear anything outside the muffs. https://tinyurl.com/ychbwcpq Then add this to your system, and you have a wireless headphone system
Joe: Jim did go out of his way to specify: "Here's a low cost (relative to other pro systems) professional system...." -- Chuck Milam, N9KY N9KY@arrl.net _____________________________________________
I'm sorry, I was not picking on Jim in my reply. Just to me $200 is not "Low Cost" Sorry Everyone. Joe WB9SBD Jim did go out of his way to specify: "Here's a low cost (relative to other pro systems)
