Hello.
 
I currently have wired DT880, and I am getting bluetooth Plantronics Backbeat Pros.. Is there any way to connect both at same time to PC (Windows 7) and change which I use from day-to-day? Only alternative I can think of is to buy USB-based BT receiver and connect both headphones to different sockets, but it would take up multiple slots -- I have 4 USB sockets total, 3 of them already filled lol. That means an USB-based BT receiver would leave no open USBs anymore

I would hate to get Backbeat Pros and then never use my DT880 again.. Knowing me, if I were to unplug DT880 and put them on my table, I would probably never even use them again. Only way I can get use out of them is if they're already connected and ready to go.
 
I have extra auxiliary socket so perhaps a BT 4.0 receiver using aux cable would be the right approach. Any suggestions? I was considering getting the Avantree Saturn Pro but that is BT 3.0 (not sure how much of an advantage BT 4.0 has over BT 3.0).
