Question Bluetooth Headphones Recommendation?

Can someone recommend a set of Blue Tooth headphones? I'll be using them for watching TV and gaming at night. I'm looking for something that is comfortable, has great audio and costs less than £40.

Re: Blue Tooth Headphones Recommendation?

From what I've read on here, other sites and reviews, Bluetooth is not the route that you want to go down for what you want to do. Audio over Bluetooth requires conversion before broadcast which adds a small delay to the audio, which is fine if you're listening to music, but for movies or games where the picture and soundtrack need to be in sync this is not good. This is probably the reason that the PS3 does not support in game sounds over the a2dp protocol, chat only.

Thanks. In that case wireless headphones are the best solution? I have a satellite receiver, telephone, PC and wireless router in the same room. Is this likely to be an issue? Any recommendations on wireless headphones?
