Just a quick heads-up --->
Good sounding wireless headphones are bit of a rarity in my experience. Way too often they sound rolled off and dull.
Well, Sennheiser RS-170 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sennheiser-RS-170-Wireless-Headphone/dp/B002TLT10I/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1367222597&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=sennheiser+rs170) aren't that cheap, but they aren't too expensive either. You can get them from Amazon for £147 at the moment.
Once they've loosened up with a few hours playing, they sound like a pretty good conventional wired £80-100 headphone, I think, and the wireless facility costs the rest. Not a bad deal at all.

The blurb claims they are good for 80m from the transmitter unit .... :nono: :eyebrows:.
I find that depending on intervening walls they are good for between 8 and about 25m.
Still fine for pottering about the house and near-garden. :)
