I checked this model number on the official TV Ears site and there is a separate port for 2 headsets. Is that necessary & why isn't it pictured here?

Don't know what you mean by port.There is a transmitter that has two cradles that serve to charge and store two wireless "TV EARS" headsets that can be purchased separately or as a bundle.The wireless receiver/speaker has two headphone jacks that can be used to plug in regular headphones.ORThe wireless receiver/speaker can be used without any headsets.The wireless speaker

On the picture (and on the unit that I have), there is a "black dot" to the upper left and upper right of the volume dial. The volume dial is the silver/blue circle in the silver square. Those "dots are the ports for the headsets. Head sets are not included.

Glad to help.I purchased this for my wife. She doesn't like having to wear ear plugs. We just use the speakers and it satisfies her needs. I thought it would be annoying for me to hear the combination of the TV and the wireless speakers, but it also helps me to understand the dialog.

Actually you shouldn't need both bases hooked up too the TV if they are the very same brand. The base will send out a signal that both sets should pick up. The other base will need to be plugged into an electrical outlet too keep the headset charged.

Just checked there is a protected port on the side of the hand set. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Let me know what you're able to pick up as a headset.

This is worded kind of difficult for me to understand, but if you are talking about the simple headset that plugs into the controller, there is no need for an adapter. But if your wanting to use Turtle Beaches or other fancy ones, you'll need to buy the adapter from their company.

No, just the one. The port on the transmitter is a small square with two pins (about the size of a mini USB).It doesn't look familiar to me, don't know whether you could find other connections that would fit it. If you look at the online manual it might give the name of the port so you could search for connectors. Barring that you might use an adapter at the RCA end (into the television). For what it's worth, we've been very happy with our Sennheiser set.

Two headsets can receive the same signal from one transmitter when switched to the same channel. I have 3 headset at home and switch any pair to the tv I'm watching.

Both, and you can use just one, but I think I recall that both works better (I'm currently using a different headset).

I purchased mine in 2013 from a different seller on Amazon. Their listing also indicated a box of two but I figured their translation was confused. Sure enough, I only received one set, a headset and a charger, (I guess their translation meant - two "things" in the box) but that is what I expected as I paid less than half of what your seller is charging. I still see this item listed on Amazon at the price I paid, so if I were you I'd keep shopping. And yes they have volume controls and I am very happy with mine.

no, you need a base to plug into the TV. The base is also a charger that usually has two slots. You would buy this if you want more than one person to listen with TV ears or your old headset stopped working.

Unknown, I dont own that headset. Good luck in your quest to find that one person who owns both!

That is correct. This headset comes with two (2) 1/8 inch connectors -- one for mic input and one for headphones out. Which is ideal since that frees up an extra USB port for something else. What else would you use those 1/8th in. jacks for anyway if not headphones? There is an adaptor available on Amazon if you absolutely must use the USB.

No Donald. This is a replacement headset. You must also have the base unit which charges the headset. The base unit plugs into your tv and then communicates with the headset. Hope this helps. Purchase the entire set first.......they work extremely well for the hearing impaired.

By the way, H251N is a single-earpiece (not "dual") headset, as displayed. We have 2 earpiece headset if also interested, at:http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00427TMWE/ref=dp_olp_used?ie=UTF8&condition;=used

If you want to use the headset as described above it will not work for the 2 pin choice. The 1 pin operates both mic and earpiece

I have 2 of these types of headsets and connecting to a TV is not trivial. At least one trip to Radio Shack will be required. If you send your TV make and model to me, I can review output connection type and recommend best solution. My email address is derek_dwyer2@msn.com, Cheers,

I believe the question should be can you use 2 headsets from the same transmitter. The headset itself is a receiver and the unit that plugs into the audio of the TV is a transmitter. That being said, I don't know how you might obtain a headphone without buying the entire set. Also be aware that Sony has developed a very bad reputation as far backing up their product warranty.

Yes, you can get 2 headsets and one receiver but not from our company. We don't offer the option because it would create a lot of unnecessary inventory and the headset is about $250 all by itself. In other words it doesn't make any sense for us to carry extra headsets when you can purchase the entire unit for $300. Keep in mind that our units are not only designed for standard use but also include adaptations so that they can be used for speech recognition. This is actually the worlds most accurate and most noise filtering speech recognition microphone besides being excellent with vocals and speech. PS: If you do decide to purchase, you might want to contact us privately at sales at knowbrainer dot comand we can make you a better deal. We have to pay Amazon and outrageous 15 points on the dollar
