Need Receiver or setup for headphone use with TV audio

Felauras

Hello guys,

 

I am trying to help my parent's out to get their tv setup so our father can actually listen to the audio of the TV without blowing out the eardrums of the rest of family

 

From what i can tell, the current TV that we have doesn't not have the ability to have multiple audio outputs so the family can listen while the headphones are on.

It only has a digital optical output? You are going to need a DAC of some kind then.

Budget option would probably be something like https://www.amazon.com/Converter-192kHz-Techole-Aluminum-Converter-Headphone/dp/B07MPF4F68/ref=asc_df_B07MPF4F68/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=322002184011&hvpos=1o3&hvnetw=g&hvrand=12991803085890933186&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9010330&hvtargid=pla-663747450891&psc=1

with a cheap sound bar with RCA input and some wireless headphones with 3.5mm input.

This is a smart TV, although when messing with menu and settings. I am unable to change settings to make it available to actually play through both the earbuds that i have attempted to use with bluetooth and the TV.
