Bluetooth headphones will work, if your bose are not the Bluetooth ones then look up and take a look at TaoTronics Bluetooth 4.1 Transmitter / Receiver, 2-in-1 Wireless 3.5mm Adapter. This will make your bose headphones Bluetooth compatible.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The TV has a Bluetooth transmitter that works great for Bluetooth headphones. The negative is that you must choose exactly one of the three ways to get sound: HDMI to or from the receiver Optical to the receiver Bluetooth. My Dad is hard of hearing and I wanted to set the system up so that he could listen to Bluetooth headphones while others listed to the surround speakers. This wouldn't work because when I activated the Bluetooth transmitted on the TV it somehow told the receiver to stop sending sound to all the speakers in the 7.1 surround system. This was strange because I had all inputs going to the receiver and then a single HDMI to the TV. Set-up this way the sound had already passed through the receiver to get to the TV, so the TV had to have sent the command to stop playing the surround system speakers back to the receiver via HDMI Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), I possibly could have shut down the CEC on the TV and/or receiver, but I’ve never messed with that before and mostly thought of that AFTER finding another solution. We ended up buying a Yamaha RX-V581 receiver which directly supports simultaneous surround sound and Bluetooth transmission to Bluetooth headphones. I believe that the RX-V481 and some other Yamaha receivers also support this. Almost all other AV receivers with Bluetooth ONLY support Bluetooth in (from your phone or tablet), not Bluetooth transmission out to Bluetooth headphones or speakers.
I would recommend:
