Vixen,
   Have you tried switching both your aids to the T position and putting on 
a set of Radio Shack foam padded hi fidelity headphones?  This works great for
me.  I adjust the volume in both the aids and the stereo until everything is
nicely balanced.    I remember seeing an advertisement in the latest DAK
catalog for a wireless headphone system.  you can plug the 'jack' end
into  whatever sound source you have abailable and the headphones 
communicate with the jack via infra-red pickup.  Should be worth a try.
The range is limited.  I think they said something like 20 feet, but that might
be enough for your needs.
