Wireless for sound

Someone come across a number of wireless headphones in the past, but have rarely been impressed by the sound quality they offer. However, Hauppage’s new XFones claim to offer cinema quality sound for just below $100.

The XFones come with a small USB transmitter that plugs into your computer, allowing it to transmit music or sound straight to the headphones. Installation is plug-and-play with no software required. Unfortunately, the Dolby Headphone feature that aims to reproduce surround sound DVD soundtracks on the headphones doesn’t work on the Mac.
