    Er. Nevermind. Won't work.

    Nah. There are lots of devices that hook to a stereo to receive bluetooth audio from devices. You need a device that sends bluetooth audio from a wired source. So, install a headphone jack on the pin, plug in bluetooth device, then pair headphones or whatever to that.

    Quoted from Whysnow:

    I am guessing I need some sort of microphone to pick up the sounds coming from the speaker and then a way to get those into my noise canceling headphones.

    I just have no idea what is the device in the middle?

    Some sort of poscket radio with an audio IN and audio OUT?

    I guess I'm not a good reader, I thought it was for his house.

    Quoted from ForceFlow:

    That's not practical for a game that you don't own at a show/tournament. Many games don't have a jack.

    No. The transmitter has a plug needed for a mic sized jack. I don't think you are going to be able to do what you want to do without it being really janky.

    Quoted from Whysnow:

    Could I use something like this?

    Is this for tournaments? If so, would they be against the rules?
