djtOtago:

 

It is not clear from the OP but, does the TV have Bluetooth? Only mentions a "Standard stereo plug"

 

If not will also need a Bluetooth transmitter.

 

 

Good point. I am not up to date on a lot of things. The (Philips) unit I am replacing does use standard batteries and it comes with its own transmitter, which plugs into the audio jack of the TV. It is at least 25 years old but that is what I am trying to replace. I am not unwilling to use Bluetooth but it is not something I have ever used before and I don't really care about any of its features. I just want to replace the functionality I had, which is an FM transmitter that plugs into the audio jack and can be received by wireless headphones on the couch.

 

 

 

   

 

 

holy crap . . .  just get some Bluetooth headphones. The difference in sound quality will be like the difference between AM and FM radio. If your TV doesn't have Bluetooth there are plenty of adaptors around that you could plug into the audio out jack.

I will get something that works for me. If Bluetooth is the only option, so be it. I don't care if I use an adaptor (no, my TV doesn't have it) or an FM transmitter. I don't care about the quality difference. I just use it to view news programmes. AM quality is fine.
