This is assuming the receiver has enough output to drive headphones. Apologies if this has been covered already, I have just caught up with this thread after a few weeks absence and it is a bit late here to go back and read through it again. Thanks.


This device wasn't really conceived as a portable solution- more of an unobstrusive semi-permanent one. It certainly can run off of batteries via the power jack but with such a high power radio, I wouldn't expect you would get over 10 hours from 8 AAs. As for driving headphones, it's not designed for that but it has a pretty high quality DAC with a high voltage output so you may have success with many headphones.

It this answers your questions!
