Default Wireless phones?

No. Plenty of analogue systems around.


Have we forgotten how this discussion started? The original poster, for
whatever reason, wanted to be rid of the trailing headphone cable. Hence
the discussion about wireless.

Digital wireless headphone systems are relatively new and have many
advantages over analog systems that are of little or no value to a
single user who just doesn't want to have a cable dangling off his ear.

An old fashioned analog RF system, providing you can find one on a
frequency that hasn't been re-assigned to something that can interfere
with it, will give you near speed-of-light latency. The latency in
digital wireless headphone and microphone systems is all about the
digital part.
