The first thing that you need to do with your Oculus Quest to use wireless headphones is unlock developer mode. Using wireless headphones is technically possible, but you'll have to jump through a lot of hoops, and even then, it might not work with all types of headphones. But the wireless nature of the Oculus Quest does not extend to headphones.

You don't need a PC, phone, or any external sensors to use your Oculus Quest for VR. The Oculus Quest is a completely untethered headset when it comes to what powers the device. Using wireless headphones is an entirely different animal. Just like on a phone, PC, or any other device with an audio jack, you just need to plug in your headphones to use them. You can plug a pair of headphones into either side or plug a separate headphone into each side. There is an audio jack on both sides of the headset. Wired headphones are the way to go on the Oculus Quest.

#OCULUS SOUND THROUGH SPEAKERS UPDATE#
We'll update this guide as soon as we get our hands on the headset and can test the stops on the Oculus Quest 2. Please note that the Oculus Quest 2 doesn't ship until October 13, 2020. If you want to use wireless headphones, it's significantly more complicated. If your headphones of choice are wired, you're in luck because it's just plug and play to use any wired headset. Headphones will improve sound quality and allow you to enjoy VR without projecting sound to everyone around you. The Oculus Quest has built-in speakers that support spatial audio, and they work well, but you can get an even better sound experience by using a good pair of headphones.
