Bluetooth LE is developing a broadcast solution like this. Eventually, commodity headphones will be able to subscribe to such broadcasts.
Time to short the companies that make lecture hall assisted audio devices and museum audio guides.

I can’t wait to see what headphone manufacturers come up with in order to let a user subscribe to an LE Broadcast … maybe by jabbing two or three side-of-head hardware button combos, wait 30s, pair again, grr, now repeat x2 for the kids.

Because OFDM allows for multipath even if that's due to literally multiple separate transmitters just synced much tighter than the guard interval (which would probably be 400ns).
