Neither RF or Bluetooth require line of sight. You're probably thinking
of infrared, and I doubt you'll find a wireless headset using infrared.
Bluetooth is digital, so you should get better quality and no static,
but only a range of 30 feet or less. RF will give you much more range,
but maybe not the same sound quality, although there are some pretty
good wireless headsets out there using RF.
Hopefully someone else can weigh in with some more specifics. I have a
pretty cheap pair of wireless RF headphone that I just use to listen to
football games when I'm doing chores around the house. I used to have a
pair of bluetooth Technologies headphones that were very nice, and had a
range of up to 120 feet, but they were poorly designed and ended up
breaking before too long. They aren't made any more, and I haven't seen
another pair of headphones using the same technology.
Good luck ,and sorry I wasn't more help!

I'm thinking about buying a wireless stereo headset to work with the
computer as well as other devices. So it doesn't need to connect via
a USB
port, but through the sound card, or to a headset jack on other
devices. I
can't recall whether it is bluetooth or RF that is restricted to line of
sight to work well. Any recommendations will be appreciated.
Thank you.
