There's a transmitter which keeps getting mentioned which I of course 
always 
forget... But people talk of using Sony earbuds and this transmitter for a 
low 
budget system. Audience participation could be cool. With a system like

maybe you could use the earbuds for mid and high content and hit 'em in 
the gut 
with a subwoofer...
