Making Your Headphones Wireless?

Chuck Chunder asks: "I've recently been looking at getting some wireless headphones of the RF rather than infra-red variety. After looking around for a bit it struck me that I don't actually want a whole new set of headphones. I already have a nice pair of headphones as well as earphones. What I really want is an RF transmitter and a small clip on receiver that I can plug my existing headphones/earphones into. The problem is, I can't find anyone selling what I am describing, even geeky places don't quite have what I'm looking for. Does anyone know/have experience of such a product?"

"I see several advantages to this:

• Adaptability: I can then use earphones/headphones as appropriate for the activity, or possibly use it as an RF link between hardware in different rooms
• Replacability: If I damage the headphones I only have to replace them, not the whole headphone/receiver unit; this bit will hopefully lead to...
• Lower costs

Has anyone seen something like this, before?"

Put on your headphones without plugging them in and turn your speakers up really loud.

Here's the tools you'll need to build it

To build the wireless headset you will need the following:

- big 50's style TV rabbit ears
- magnetic induction core
- 5 pounds of cobalt 60
- chin strap
- 8 track player
- car battery
- lots of velcro

Once you get this stuff it practically builds itself.
