If you\u2019re prone to late-night gaming benders or Netflix binges, throwing on a pair of wireless headphones lets you enjoy all the action without keeping anybody else awake in the process.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_the_Difference_Between_Bluetooth_and_RF_Headphones\"><\/span>What\u2019s the Difference Between Bluetooth and RF Headphones?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Bluetooth headphones are wireless, and traditional wireless headphones are wireless, so what\u2019s the difference?<\/p>\n<p>Bluetooth headphones use the Bluetooth radio <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> that is more like complex radio-based communication standards like Wi-Fi than it is like plain old radio transmissions.<\/p>\n<p>While modern consumers are more familiar with Bluetooth because of its ubiquity in everything from the headphone market to the car accessory market, it\u2019s not the original form wireless headphones took.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-box  \">\n<div class=\"product-img product-img-noaward\">\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"presentation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Sennheiser-506298-Wireless-Headphone-System\/dp\/B00PQN2PPE\/?tag=hotoge-20\" onclick=\"fbq('track', 'Buy Button'); if (fb_t_convert){fb_t_convert();}\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41W05yD4m1S._SL160_.jpg\" height=\"147px\" width=\"150px\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><br \/>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The original wireless headphones simply used a low-power radio transmitter plugged into the audio source paired with headphones that could receive the transmission on the same radio frequency. This was the same setup used by early baby monitors\u2014no encryption or protocols, no overhead, just a simple transmission from point A to point B.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Heres_Why_RF_Headphones_Are_Superior_for_TV\"><\/span>Here\u2019s Why RF Headphones Are Superior for TV<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>No doubt about it, you can pair Bluetooth headphones with televisions and stereo equipment that is Bluetooth compatible. In fact, doing so is exactly how I arrived at the opinion that it\u2019s the inferior option and that using old-school RF headphones is superior.<\/p>\n<p>But hey, don\u2019t take my word for it. Let\u2019s look at the specific aspects of RF wireless headphones that offer a superior user experience.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RF_Headphones_Have_Zero_Latency\"><\/span>RF Headphones Have Zero Latency<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When you\u2019re listening to music, latency doesn\u2019t matter. There is no reference point to show you that the sound is out of sync. If you\u2019re listening to an album over Bluetooth, it doesn\u2019t matter if there is a fraction of a second delay or a multi-second delay. Other than a lag when you press play or pause, you can\u2019t tell there is any latency.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not the case when you\u2019re listening to audio synced to visual imagery. The human brain is <em>incredibly<\/em> good at detecting when audio and video are out of sync. Depending on what Bluetooth version the hardware in your TV and headphones is, the latency can range anywhere from 40-500 milliseconds.\u00a0 A half-second delay is certainly noticeable when watching TV shows and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">movies<\/a>\u2014and even more noticeable if you\u2019re gaming.<\/p>\n<p>RF headphones, on the other hand, are much faster. In fact, practically speaking, they have zero latency. The radio waves transmitted from the base unit are moving at approximately 186,000 miles per second, with no delay imposed by encryption or protocol overhead.<\/p>\n<p>On your couch, or anywhere in your house for that matter, you will experience the sound through the headphones exactly as you would listening to the TV speakers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RF_Headphones_Have_Better_Audio_Quality\"><\/span>RF Headphones Have Better Audio Quality<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Bluetooth is a fundamentally lossy transmission standard because the audio has to be encoded, compressed, encrypted, and transmitted to the receiving device, only to have the receiving device unpack it all.<\/p>\n<p>RF headphones simply transmit the signal from the base station to the headphones\u2014no compression or manipulation involved. Whatever the audio quality that your TV provides is what you\u2019ll get.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously, you can have garbage quality RF headphones that sound bad, but that\u2019s a function of the construction of the headphones or a low-quality transmitter in the base and not a result of quality loss in transmission.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RF_Headphones_Dont_Require_Pairing\"><\/span>RF Headphones Don\u2019t Require Pairing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Pairing Bluetooth headphones isn\u2019t the most arduous task in the world, but it is a much bigger pain than just plugging in a pair of headphones.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product-box  \">\n<div class=\"product-img product-img-noaward\">\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" aria-hidden=\"true\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"presentation\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Sony-Wireless-Theater-Headphones-Transmitter\/dp\/B07PK59MND?tag=hotoge-20\" onclick=\"fbq('track', 'Buy Button'); if (fb_t_convert){fb_t_convert();}\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41fWzoxtWwL._SL160_.jpg\" height=\"147px\" width=\"150px\" alt=\"\" role=\"presentation\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><br \/>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>RF headphones offer an experience almost as simple as just plugging in a pair of headphones. You\u2019ll need to link the base to your TV or media center by a headphone or stereo cable. Once you do so, you\u2019ll typically need to use a simple switch or dial on the base unit and the companion headphones to select a channel like channel 1, 2, or 3\u2014but that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n<p>After that, you can use the headphones anytime without worrying about repairing them. Just pick them up off the charging cradle and turn them on.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RF_Headphones_Scale_Indefinitely\"><\/span>RF Headphones Scale Indefinitely<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This particular point might not matter to you if you\u2019re simply looking to get a pair of headphones for yourself.<\/p>\n<p>But if you\u2019re looking for a headphone system that supports multiple headphones\u2014because, say, you want to have one pair for yourself and one pair for your spouse so you can each listen at different volumes\u2014you can\u2019t beat traditional RF wireless headphones.<\/p>\n<p>The vast majority of Bluetooth devices on the market don\u2019t support multiple connections, which necessitates the purchase of <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/MEE-audio-Universal-Transmitter-technology\/dp\/B016NIOOH2\/?tag=hotoge-20\">a specialty transmitter<\/a> that supports multiple Bluetooth connections so you can pair two Bluetooth headphones. Beyond two Bluetooth headphones, you\u2019re looking at buying multiple adapters.<\/p>\n<p>RF headphones, on the other hand, scale indefinitely. Whether you want to connect one pair of headphones, five pairs of headphones, or you want to host a silent rave in your basement, there\u2019s no practical limit to the number of headphones you can connect to an RF base station.<\/p>\n<p>You simply need to buy matching headphones (so that the channel adjustments and charging style match with the base you own).

These tradeoffs may not matter, but they\u2019re worth noting.<\/p>\n<p>First, the Kleer headphone kits are typically only expandable to two pairs of headphones, if they are expandable at all. (And the extra headsets are around twice as expensive as regular RF headphones.)<\/p>\n<p>Second, unlike their traditional RF counterparts, they do have a bit of latency. It\u2019s only around 30 milliseconds, but if the whole reason you skipped over Bluetooth was to avoid the latency, you might want to consider sticking with traditional RF headphones like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Sennheiser-506298-Wireless-Headphone-System\/dp\/B00PQN2PPE\/?tag=hotoge-20\">Sennheiser RS 135s<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you end up going with traditional RF headphones, or you find some of the features of the digital Kleer models to be compelling, either way, you\u2019ll have a superior experience to Bluetooth and enjoy your TV and gaming at just the right volume.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
