Is there a cheap option for wireless headphones/earbuds with low latency for recording a take?

Bluetooth has way too much latency for recording- is there any other wireless option anyone has found to work? Doesn't have to be great sound quality, just be able to hear the drums. Not having wired headphones would save a lot of hassle for recording guitar!

Might be overkill but an IEM system? They do add a bit of latency though have to say I can't feel it when playing with the band.

No there isn’t.
Cheapest is probably the Yamahas at £300 which are specifically designed from low latency and don’t use Bluetooth.

What about using an IEM  combo cable where the headphones plug into the guitar cable ? That's what I use for tracking guitars.

Thanks for the info. Expensive enough alright. I guess low latency isn't really a consideration for most manufacturers. Might be something I'd consider if the sound quality is good enough for general mastering and mixing.
