I think this has been asked before, possibly by me. Please can someone recommend a set of wireless headphones that will help a partially deaf man listen to the Tv, but not inflict the sound on his partner (me).
When he's watching TV, the sound from his current headphones is as loud as I would have it on if I were watching something I wanted to see. This driving me insane.
He doesn't listen to music. It's only TV.
The main criteria are : wireless, decent range about 30 ft, DOESNT LEAK SOUND.
Before you buy headphones please be aware that some TVs cut off the speakers when you plug into the headphone socket - best to check yours before you commit yourself.
I'm sure Buenchico recommended some really good ones on AB a few weeks ago. Keep your fingers crossed he sees this - he'll no doubt post a great link, too!
Brainiac:
I did indeed recommend Sony's wireless headphones recently. (I'm using mine as I type). However they might not meet Cloverjo's requirement for minimal sound leakage at higher volumes, so that's why I've suggested a 'stethoset' type of device above instead.
^^^ The device in my link has a built-in microphone so that, by simply throwing a switch, the user can change from listening to the TV set to listening to amplified sounds from within the room (such as people conversing with him).
Why do emojis eliminate everything I type after one of them? I was trying to thank Buenchico and everyone else who'd helped me with this, but it's all disappeared after an emoji.
Thank you, everyone anyway.
