Multiple wireless headphones on a single base

[cobito]

Hello. I want to buy a pair of wireless headphones. I've been looking for information on Philips and Sony and I haven't found anything about connecting multiple headphones to a single base. The models that interest me are the MDR RF895RK from Sony and the SCH8800 from Philips (there are others out there but those are the ones that attract me the most).

Do you know if you can receive audio in both headphones with a single base or do I have to buy a 3.5" jack splitter and connect both bases to the audio output?

Thank you.

Of the wireless ones that I know of (none are the ones you say), the answer is no.
In fact, some do not change frequency or channels, so you can only use 1 if they are the same...

Maybe some professional ones if it can be done

@namiga I mean that both headphones hear the same thing. That is, do the headphones have to negotiate something with the base or do they just receive audio? As far as I know, both models have several channels to choose from. I understand that if it is not possible to connect both to the same base, they should be able to use both at the same time on different channels by connecting both audio inputs to the same output.

@cobito Isn't that a bluetooth splitter?

If it's not that, then I haven't understood the topic.

@whoololon That seems like a solution, but I would have to buy other models because the ones I had seen are not Bluetooth.

@cobito Ah, they go by radio frequency... I was missing that. :rolling_eyes:

Well, what better than to experiment? I bought the Sony ones and yes it is possible to use several headphones with a single base.

Regarding the headphones, the sound seemed a bit disappointing to me, the truth is, although the defects I detect seem to be the same as I read for models in the range. In short, it is not too clear due to some echo. In addition, sometimes you can hear interference, they are not a big deal but they are heard.

The dynamic range is not bad (it has decent bass) but that lack of clarity does not appeal to me. They have a switch that improves this issue a bit, but it does not eliminate it completely.

They will be the last analog RF ones I buy because the technology seems not to have matured very well. I want them for watching movies and they were the most practical option since I do not need bluetooth adapters.

Long live the cables!
