Yeah, so my Aunt bought me some headphones to use on my 4K TV for Christmas. I have a 55" Samsung 4K TV (Not sure the model) and they didn't work as I didn't have the right AV jacks. She took them back and got me a different pair and they STILL don't work with my TV.

I have a single yellow AV jack for the red/white AV In plugs and a blue jack for blue/red Component In. I also have an Optical Audio Jack.

So, my question is this... What kind of Bluetooth headphones would work with my 4K TV? I am completely clueless when it comes to this and I really need aome help with this one.

Thanks, guys.

Bluetooth means it's wireless already. Anything bluetooth should work. There's no issue of having the wrong audio jacks, because audio jacks aren't used.

Well, my TV doesn't seem to have an option for pairing Bluetooth devices or not that I seem to be able to locate. The headset I have right now has a Bluetooth Transmitter that has to be plugged up with either the AV cords or the 3.5mm jack and I don't think my TV has the right ones.

I was looking on Amazon at a pair of headphones and it said you could need a digital to analog converter. I found this one:

Would that be the answer to my problems?

Too much lag to consider it for gaming. If you're using a PS4, the headphone jack in the DS4 is a much nicer option if you can handle the wire.

Well any 'IN' jacks on the TV are not what you want. You should have some kind of audio out, either a regular headphone jack or an optical out or both. Check your TV, my Samsung came with a bunch of special cables that plug in to the TV and then your other cables plug in to the those cables.
