Legal, or illegal?
I say illegal.
Headphones are not appropriate equipment for the game of basketball.
3-5-1: The referee shall not permit any team member to wear equipment or apparel which, in his/her judgment, is dangerous or confusing to other players or is not appropriate.
3-5-4-E: Head decorations and headwear, except those specified above, are prohibited.
3.5 SITUATION A RULING: The third criterion provides that equipment used must be appropriate for basketball and not be confusing.

Illegal. If the item cannot be worn during the game, then it cannot be worn during the warm-up time.
