Default Question about IR headphones

Yes, I think I might try the refund route and maybe look
at a more expensive set. If the shop thinks this model
ought to be quieter, I'll be happy to try another pair in
store and have a listen. I don't mind a bit of noise, but
this level could get annoying. (I might get my head
examined again, I don't think the doctors checked for IR
emissions, I can change the channel on my TV by
concentrating and blinking, is that a bad sign?)


Can't everyone do that? Er...except Eeyore...


Indeed. My eyes only operate in the X-ray band.

About thirty years ago I changed channel on a TV by sneezing.
It had an ultrasonic remote control and I had the flu.
As the two channels both were showing a David Niven movie at the time
it took me a while to realize what had happened.

** Did you try twitching your nose like Samantha ??

Maybe that would increase or reduce the volume .....
