I use a set of wireless headphones in a studio environment with open
workspaces. A few people have since considered buying wireless
headphones to use while at studio as well and we're concerned about
how these multiple wireless units may interfere with each other. Does
anyone have any experience with multiple units working in the same
space? I'm guessing that, like most transmitting tech., these
manufacturers would set each unit to a different range of frequency
and then allow the receiver to tune to which ever transmitter you want
to tune into.

Thanks for your time and help.

I have two (infrared) pairs at home. One Philips and one noname. They
seem to transmit on exacly the same way, they DO interfere with
oneanother. I have one transmitter in one room connected to a TV and
one in the next room connected to the computer. If I walk between the
rooms with either of the headphones on, they shift as I pass the door
between the rooms. At the door, there is quite a horrible sound with a
lot of interference.
I think that you could experiment with the placement of your
transmitters to make it work, but I would not bet on it.

Likely even a worse problem than wireless microphones.
Because the headphones (particularly the cheaper ones) don't
do very well at documenting exactly what frequency they are
operating on.

That is the way the Advent AW770 headphones work. Both the
transmitter and the receiver (headset) are tunable. It would apper that
you could get upwards of 8-10(?) different "channels" across the
available tuning range. The Advents were recommended by a
studio owner either here or in rec.audio.pro. I bought a pair on
his advice (~$75 at Amazon) and am very pleased with them.
IMHO they are excellent for the price. Rechargable battery and
everything.

I have a set of Panasonic 'phones. Don't recall the model. The
transmitter has a 3-position switch to select one of 3 frequencies for
transmission. The 'phones have an adjustable tuning control to sweep the
frequency ranges the transmitter uses.

Seems a good system to me, as if you have three sets, you could use one
pair of phones to listen to all three sources as you choose.
