Wireless amp for headphones?

Archived from groups: rec.audio.high-end (More info?)

I have a pair of corded headphones I like a lot. I would like to be
able to use them uncorded. Can I do this without getting wireless
headphones? Is there some sort of wireless amp I can plug these
headphones into with the transmitter connected to the entertainment
system? Thanks!

Radio shack sells a thing called a video sender.
it sends audio and video to a remote location by radio transmitter.
putting a good headphone amp at the remote loc. would be required to drive
the headphones.
the other method would be to use the FM transmitters.and get a portable FM
radio.
the fidelity of the transmitter would compromise the quality of the sound.
