Can you use a wireless headphones as a wired one?

Demiqas · February 3, 2017

I was looking for a headphone with good noise cancelling capabilities without being too expensive, so I stumbled upon the Sony MDR-100ABN. Now I have little experience when it comes to headphones, so I'm confused in regards to the whole wireless thing. These headphones are wireless, but I intend on using them on my desktop PC. I don't want to go through the hassle of getting a bluetooth dongle and was wondering if in general, you can connect wireless headphones with a wire and have them work properly. Does any have any experience with this?

Depends on the set you buy. The ones you mentioned have a cable length listed at 1.2m on the specs, so probably, yes.

If you're not planning on using the wireless, why not just find a comparable wired one. It will be cheaper for you, or you can step up to a better pair and probably pay the same price since it doesn't have wireless. As for your question, there are some headphones which allow you to use wireless and wired.
