Connecting headphones to TV without an audio jack socket

[omega3111]

Hi,

We have a Samsung MU7400 TV and we need to connect headphones to it. The headphones use a standard audio jack. The TV does not seem to have this socket. The connection on the TV are listed as

* 2 USB (0.5A and 1A)
* Digital Audio Out (Optical)
* 3 HDMI (1 ARC and 2 regular(?))
* Component IN (Pb and Pr)
* AV IN (Y/video, L, R) this is the one in use from the cable box

What are my options to connect an audio jack? I'm looking into converters or some solution for this. Please list all options you know of.

Thanks

You will need a headphone amplifier with an optical audio input

You could also use an optical to analog converter with any analog headphone amp.

your tv has bluetooth on it use a set of good bluetooth speakers or sound bar.
