Short answer: yes. Normal headphones, including most Bluetooth ones, are not made for a group silent disco.
Why normal headphones fall short
- One-to-one only: Bluetooth pairs one device with one source. It cannot broadcast to a whole crowd.
- Delay: separate connections can drift out of sync.
- No channels: guests cannot switch between DJs.
What silent disco headsets do
They receive one shared RF/UHF signal from a transmitter, so every guest hears the same beat at the same moment, and can switch between 2 to 3 channels.
