I certainly appreciate your social needs. Very civilised IMO. Agreed that headphones are not a practical idea with guests.

Yes I believe that these days there are very good wireless cans out there. However I have no personal knowledge of them and have to admit that I don't understand how they interface with a traditional hifi set up. I do get how they can work with e.g. Blue Tooth streaming (preferably where all is APTX) but I tend to come across this this mainly in relation to phones, tablets and similar devices.

I would always recommend Tyll Hertsen's InnerFidelity website where there is loads of good guidance on headphone matters.

My own ( wired) approach can be found in my profile here but I am going to be looking for some new 'phones to replace my old Sennheisers sometime soon.

Headphones really can offer satisfying listening. I had a wonderful evening yesterday listening to R3's live broadcast via the HD stream of John Eliot Gardener/Mendelssohn Violin Concerto (Ibragimova) and Lobgesang symphony. Speakers are currently back at the factory for service (tweeter upgrade).

Regards

Pete
