    Hi guys.
    Apologies if this has been asked a million times before but...
    in terms of getting a pair of headphones to watch tv at night etc. so as to not disturb other members of the household, is bluetooth a viable option (vs wireless)?
    I had read something before about latency meaning bluetooth headphones weren't too suitable for television because of this time lag.
    Is this still an issue these days with bluetooth headphones?
    Or would it be better to go for wireless headphones that don't use bluetooth to connect?

    Thanks a mill in advance.

    Hi Gaillimh.

    Thanks for the post.

    Bluetooth would be an option if you television supported it, what TV do you currently own?

    For me I prefer something like the Sennheiser RS165 priced at 149 Euro

    Let me know your thoughts.
