Wireless Headphone for PS3 w/out an AMP - Blu-ray Forum

dandla · 11-12-2009, 02:07 PM

Just want to know if there are any good wireless headphones for PS3 either Bluetooth or USB, I don't have an amp. just PS3 direct to my TV via HDMI. I know that PS3 does not have a headphone jack neither as my TV, so sometimes when I watch movie at night, I can't turn it up too loud because I don't want to disturb the kids...any recommendation. Thanks

I'm pretty sure headphones on the PS3 only work for online gaming. I have a bluetooth Motorola headphone w/mic and it only allows me to hear when gaming and not during movies or anything else of that sort.

what kind of TV do you have?

you can get an composite to headphone adapter and get some wireless headphones of your choice, seinheiser has some nice stuff.

You should be able to use the "fixed audio out" on the TV to connect to a pair of wireless headphones. Such as the ones curse recommended.

Then just "mute" the TV.

Thanks...I just realize that this morning that I could do it this way. Now just have to order the Sens from Newegg, pretty good deal
