No. And I don't think it'll happen unless you're willing to carry a big
battery pack around with you. Good sound and going loud require some
reasonable power to drive the phones. Most of the wireless units use amps
in the milliwatt region because they need to run off of small battery packs.

Hi Martin,

Have a look at

<http://www.sennheiser.com/sennheiser/icm_eng.nsf/root/products_audiology_impaired_09373>

This is a wireless set for hearing impaired persons; you can use it
with closed headphones which will provide the required isolation.
Together with sensitive headphones like HD 25 you'll surely get decent
sound and enough sound pressure. Price? Ask your local dealer ...

That's wrong! You can connect headphones instead of the induction loop.
