Sound Baths Where Every Guest Hears Every Overtone

Mic your crystal bowls and gongs into wireless headphones — so the person at the back hears exactly what the person at the front hears, even outdoors.

From $35 USD/headset 350+ headphones in our fleet 500m wireless range

A sound bath is only as good as what your guests can hear. In large venues, outdoor spaces, or rooms with poor acoustics, the delicate overtones of crystal bowls and gongs get lost — the guests nearest the instruments get a completely different experience to those at the back. Silent disco headphones fix this: mic your instruments into the transmitter, and every guest receives the full, detailed sound at identical volume, wherever they're lying. It also unlocks sound baths in places they were never possible before — beaches, parks, rooftops, and noisy urban venues.

Why Silent Disco Headphones Are Perfect for Sound Baths

Every guest hears the full detail of your bowls and gongs — no dead spots at the back

Take sound baths outdoors — wind and background noise no longer wash out the subtle frequencies

Host in venues with bad acoustics or noise restrictions that would normally rule out a sound bath

Layer recorded frequencies or binaural tracks under your live instruments

Scale beyond small rooms — serve 50-100 guests with the intimacy of a private session

How to Set Up Silent Disco for Sound Baths

1

Place one or two condenser microphones close to your bowls and gongs, running into a small mixer, then into the transmitter

2

Do a soundcheck lying down with a headphone on — balance the instruments the way a guest will hear them

3

Keep guests in the room with the instruments where possible — they'll still feel the physical vibrations while hearing the miked detail

4

Use Channel 2 for a pure recorded frequency journey so you can take breaks during long events

5

For beach or sunset sound baths, the 500m range and 10+ hour battery mean location is never a constraint

Frequently Asked Questions: Silent Disco for Sound Baths

Doesn't using headphones defeat the purpose of a sound bath?

It's a fair question — and the answer is the opposite. Guests still feel the physical vibration of the instruments in the room; the headphones add what most guests were missing: the full harmonic detail. Practitioners tell us guests at the back of the room finally experience what the front row always got. And for outdoor or large-venue events, headphones are the only way a sound bath works at all.

How do I mic crystal bowls and gongs for silent disco headphones?

Use one or two condenser microphones positioned near your instruments, run them through a small mixer into the transmitter's 3.5mm or RCA input. The sound broadcasts to every headphone in real time. Setup takes about ten minutes and works with any standard mic and mixer.

Can I run a sound bath outdoors with headphones?

Yes — this is where headphones truly shine. Outdoors, delicate bowl overtones are normally lost to open air and wind within a few metres. With headphones, guests hear studio-quality sound on a beach at sunset. The 500m wireless range covers any outdoor setup.

How many headphones do I need for a sound bath event?

One per guest, since everyone listens for the entire session. Most studio sound baths run 15-30 guests, so 20-40 headphones covers regular events with spares. For festival or retreat sound journeys, 50-100 headphones lets you scale without losing intimacy.
