does anyone have information on sennheiser's wireless headphone systems for the hearing impared in movie theaters? i found these two products:
http://www.sennheiser.ca/rfwirelesshtml/ek3053.html
http://www.lexiconusa.com/Equipment/.../IR/hdi452.htm
the first is an rf receiver and the second is an ir headphone/receiver. would either of these work in a movie theater with sennheiser's wireless system?
my thinking here is you could wear ety's at the movies, getting the soundtrack from a wireless receiver. this way you can concentrate on the movie without being bothered by people talking, cell phones, crying babies, etc. if the receiver had some sort of line out, you might even be able to use an amp or surround simulator. if not, you could use good earbuds like the mx400/500 or e888, and pick up surround sounds from the theater speakers. you wouldn't have to worry about sound leaking from the earbuds because everyone is hearing the same thing.
i read on a dvd forum that luxury movie theaters are being built with comfy leather chairs, drink service, and headphone jacks built into the chairs!
