Would be nice to have built-in Bluetooth in the future....I hate ripping my headphones out when I hit the wire when rocking too hard.
Built-in Bluetooth
-
If you would like something now, Bluetooth adapters have become very inexpensive. I bought one yesterday to use with the headphone jack in my wife’s car for $5.00.

I would guess the latency associated with BT would make for a less than stellar headphone playing experience...

It would be so nice to have a wireless solution for the headphones. I don´t know if it´s not possible due to latency but I just bought the X-vive U2 wireless system for my guitar at home and it´s great now to only have one cable from the headphones and not from my guitar.
Maybe some one already has a solution for this using other technology different from BT?

As far as I know you could use a Xvive U2 set up to feed your headphones too .

Yes of course. But remember that Xvive U2 is meant as a mono system for a instrument level signal. While the headphones is a stereo system with some amplification of the signal.

never though of using a Bluetooth adapter for headphones, time to go shopping.

Hi, as previously mentioned, you will find the latency pretty painful. BT for playing is not the best at all.
This is the reason why the In Ears Monitor systems are so expensive. The good ones have very small latency.

I've bee researching this for a while and the ONLY Bluetooth Headphones that could deliver acceptable latencies are the ones based on APTx. I go my eye on the SteelSeries Arctics Pro or the Siberia 840. Only they are a bit expensive.
They deliver 16ms latency and that is very low already for that tech. You can test if you can live with that latency by setting a delay with 16ms delay 100% wet.

I've looked into Bluetooth before. The best aptx I found claimed to clock in at around 40ms- good enough for lip sync watching TV. 16ms for Bluetooth is by far the best latency I've come across, guess the progress of technology marches ever onwards.
Thanks for pointing out the mono aspect Atlantic, never thought of that.

You thought about the latency?

Here you go: https://www.amazon.com/TROND-B…1&keywords=bluetooth+send
You will need APT-X low latency Headphones. Just plug that device into the headphone jack, DONE!

40ms I would say it is unacceptable as it would become very noticeable.
So far the SteelSeries Headphones and transmitters appear to offer the lowest latency 16ms!!

I would love bluetooth coupled with a mobile rig manager so I could easily manage rigs on my phone and send them to the kemper without having to mess around with a USB stick.
