I have two pairs of wireless headphone to watch telly with sometimes (Waterloo to Windsor railway on one side and Heathrow flight path on the other) They're both made by Phillips but different models, they both cost about 15 -20 quid and they're both Ok. Have had them a couple of years and no probs.
I haven't used them to listen to music though. We just crank that up

thx
But I'm afraid I solved the problem for now by buying an Ipod.
the idea was to been able to listen to music in the garden without alarming the Neighbours

that's
educating the neighbours about good music, shurely?

I'm not even going to try and do that.
although some of them have a good taste in music, they even know The Sisters
but lets just say I wouldn't appreciate it myself if my next-door neighbors would turn up there volume.

Funny, I get really irked when neighbours play loud music, or worse, tv. Must be getting old!
I even get annoyed when people on the train have their ipod turned up too loud and you get that annoying trebly sound. It's usually Snow Patrol.

i feel your pain. the shops are a nuisance too, with all the tripe they have on at full volume.
and don't even get me started about the gym. especially when they have those silly classes which involve flailing limbs about like lunatics.
@
christophe - i suggest your next door neighbours seek help immediately. unless, of course, they're 3 years old. in that case they'll grow out of it, hopefully without any lasting damage.

Actually I don't really crank up the music I just wrote that to be "cool" and "down with the homies" (er...or something like that)
Wireless headphone are very uncool especially if you forget you're wearing them and wander off in to the next room.

uncool they might well be, but i salute anyone who can keep those things on their skulls for longer than 10 minutes. let alone forget wearing them and wander off
i can't keep them on for more than 10 minutes. and that's if i'm lucky - they usually fall off my head within the first 5. which is just as well, because they're so bloody uncomfortable
i'm not sure where i'm going wrong

I don't know either. Both of mine are comfy except for that potential for brain frying static when yer wander off
I must have a headphone shaped head or something
