Lets talk wireless headphones

[WV Hillbilly]

I am sure that many of you would like to do away with that wire . I know I would . I've been checking out wireless phones on e-bay . I kind of like the looks of the bluetooth . Does anyone know if those will work with my md . All help greatly appreciated . Thanks in advance . HH Paul

Without getting into a heated debate...

I would think wireless headphones would be unable to provide the necessary frequency response between 200 and 3200 Hz that all metal detectors use. Not to mention the 100ohms you need to hear tones and signals clearly.

I'm sure there is someone out there who knows a little more then I do.. This is just my rule of thumb.
Who knows what you might be missing?

Here's an intresting link.. http://www.detectorpro.com/Compatibility.htm with more information.

Bluetooth will send and receive, but not from a detector, yet. How are you going to control any extra bluetooth frequencies broadcast from the guy on his cell phone or another detectorist. It might be better not to gum up the works with more plumping.

I have a set that I won at a treasure hunt. I believe they were made by D-Tex. They work, but are rather heavy because they have a built-in FM radio in the headphones. There is a receiver that plugs into the detector with a wire that wraps around the detector shaft. You have to tune the FM radio in the head phone to a certain setting on the FM dial.
I tested the range on them and was very impressed. I threw them on and had a friend go over a coin with the detector and could hear the signal a block away. Don't know what the benefit to that would be though.

You can get a lot better price on Ebay. Less than 1/2 or maybe even less.

Just velcro doggle to detector or arm cuff. What is great is they are rechargable.
