When group classes dominate the floor

Maybe I misunderstood, but isn't the whole point of the FM transmitter/radio system so that the partners aren't attached by any wires?

Or maybe I misunderstood. He said he'd found out that wireless didn't work, so I assumed that meant it was all connected by wires. (I'm not much of a techie!) If not, then it sounds like a great idea.
 
I believe its the difference between some of the "wireless" headphones that and the "real" FM transmitter/receiver set described here.

The range on most wireless headphone sets I've tried is only 2-3 feet. This would probably work in standard (but then again, so would a simple y-splitter. In Latin/Rhythm/Smooth any open, but still connected figure (Fan for instance tends to kill them) would probably fail, let along any completely separated figure.

The FM transmitter/receiver I tried (quite a while ago) was probably closer to 15 feet, typically more than enough for most routines (theatre arts/showdance probably would still have issues unless you had a very strong base station)

Got it. I didn't know the difference. If I ever want to set it up, I'm definitely going to be asking for advice here!
 
When I practice alone I often use an mp3 player and headphones. I find that the headphones affect my balance slightly. I feel I miss spatial clues from ambient sound when my ears are covered.

Anyone else who's worn headphones while dancing experience this?
