There are all sorts of expensive wireless headsets out there, with head
pieces that feel like a giant clothespin is smashing your skull, vinyl
ear pieces that have you sweating in seconds, and all the sound quality
of a $2 headphone.

I bought a $15 box intended for car use; you plug a stereo source into it
and it broadcasts stereo in the FM band. Then I got a cheap, comfy
walkman-type radio. Works great, inexpensive, comfortable and good range.


I did about the same thing, except I bought an FM transmitter kit from
Ramsey Electronics. With it, I can listen anywhere in the house,
yard, and several hundred feet down the road ;-) I use a very small
little FM receiver (from Radio Shack) that drops into my shirt pocket
with room to spare, along with "ear bud" type headphones.
