Can I buy 3 sets (6 headphones total) and just use 1 connection? In other words, would all 6 people be able to hear the same thing at the same time?

I would say so, as long as all 6 stay in the room, once u are away from the infrared i.e. another room, the light is blocked and.lose sound.My parents love these headphones.

I can only give you an educated GUESS. SHORT ANSWER: Yes, I believe so. LONG ANSWER: The headphones have a built-in IR (infra-red) receiver which, according to the manufacturer's user manual found at http://images.bossaudio.com/manuals/HSIR_DOWNLOAD_1.PDF, operate on a carrier frequency of 2.3 MHz (left channel), 2.8MHz (right channel). As long as each set of headphones uses the same frequencies (which they most LIKELY do) there should be no problem. The only other concern would be to keep in mind that an IR system requires LINE-OF-SIGHT transmission from transmitter to headphones. These means that there can be NOTHING in the line-of-sight between transmitter and headphones. The manual states also that there is a 35 degree angle of spread on either side of center of the transmitter (70 degrees total spread). So if you're sitting too far off to the right or left there may be reception issues. 70 degrees seems to me to be a pretty decent spread, but keep that in mind as you consider how you intend to use them. One more note, I've noticed that just turning your head too far right or left can affect reception. This is normal. As I stated, these are line-of-sight meaning that the built-in receiver window on the headphones must be able to "see" the transmitter. So turning your head too far will obviously turn the receiver window away from the line-of-sight. This is typically not an issue if you are using them to watch a movie since you are keeping your head pretty much in one direction. As I stated in my review, I use them for TV viewing and find them to be more than adequate for this purpose. Hope this helps!

I am sorry to let you know, I was not the one it was a gift to. My nephew has them and solved his problems. Iwill ask him if I can give his email address. Will post it if he says it is o'k. Phyllis

Hi Kristopher, I wanted to follow up with you on this because it seems like there is a company on Amazon that does sell relatively inexpensive Bluetooth transmitter/splitters that will allow you to plug that transmitter into the 3.5mm jack of your device and you can then use TWO headphones at the same time wirelessly. We have had a good experience with them in our house. I hope that helps. Jacquie

After reading the instructions, I believe you can pair multiple headsets. I haven't tried this yet with my headset.

I would say each set comes with a pair and it is "paired". So there is probably no interference. And then I found this review and confirmed that there should have no interference. So let's try it. http://www.practical-home-theater-guide.com/soundcast-wireless-system.html

This only has one headphone out. You could use a splitter. It's basically a USB sound card. I don't think it'll make much different on those headphones, unless you are getting a lot of noise from your system on your regular headphone jack.

No you can not. unfortunately u can one use 1 pair. All carry the same frequencies.I have that problem when someone near by is using the same mics. You get they mics thru your system and visa verse

No, each transmitter has 2 channels and they will duplicate on the second transmitter. You could use all four if you only use 2 at a time. In other words you could leave all four hooked up, but only use Channel A or B on either but not on both at the same time. All four headsets could be used at the same time, but only on Channel A or B. Hope this helps.

I just received the second headphone from a retailer in Japan. And yes, you can pair up to 4 wireless headphones by holding down the "ID Set" button on the receiver, while also holding down the ID Set button on the headphone for about 2 seconds. Mine paired without any issues.

I would think that your best best would be to try a composite splitter. Here is a link: http://www.amazon.com/3-Way-Switch-Selector-Splitter-XBOX360/dp/B004T8KZCM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397772816&sr=8-1&keywords=composite+splitter Though splitting audio normally cuts the loudness in half for both people listening. My advice is to search for another product that uses one receive/transmitter (the tower) but allows for multiple headphones to be connected. My best friend's parents used to have one that was made for two people to be able to use it and both of them could be listening at the same time and you'd be yelling at them but they wouldn't hear you.

You can connect more that one device (up to 6) but you cannot play more than 1 at the same time. You tube has videos that explain more thoroughly. Do a search for "How to pair and connect the Bose Soundlink Mini Bluetooth" (I used Google).

I highly doubt it will work well with more than 5. Each headphone/earbud you add increases the impedance or load on the sound signal. You'll probably end up with a very quiet signal.

I believe the question should be can you use 2 headsets from the same transmitter. The headset itself is a receiver and the unit that plugs into the audio of the TV is a transmitter. That being said, I don't know how you might obtain a headphone without buying the entire set. Also be aware that Sony has developed a very bad reputation as far backing up their product warranty.

I tried to connect two separate blue tooth speaker, no joy. Only connects to one at a time. I take it that it would be the same to the headsets.

You can use only 1 at the time. There is a button on remote control to to switch between speakers and headsets.

Yeah. It is a Bluetooth device so as far as I know you cannot connect two sets of these to the same audio source. They are pretty handy for personal use, though a little on the pricey side and there is some small fiddle factor getting the earpieces lined up just right..

The head set is paired to the phone. So you can paired to as many phones as you wish. Talking with one at a time.
