Date: 2008-11-02 Exactly what I needed I have owned several sets of headphones for listening to my TV in the kitchen while my husband blasts another TV in the family room. These are the first rechargeable ones and by far the most expensive. They provide excellent sound (not that the TV is all that demanding) with no interference or static. They worked immediately - I plugged the adapter into the headphone jack on my TV, turned on the headphones, and had clear sound. They didn't even need tuning (usually for wireless you have to fiddle with the dials to get the base and headphones tuned exactly the same). The charger works great. The whole system takes a little more space than I'd hoped -- 9.5 inches tall and my shelf is 9.25 -- but the cords are generous so you can keep the base far from your tuner/TV. Finally, the headset is very comfortable; my ears don't hurt after a few hours. Headphones are highly recommended. Date: 2008-11-01 Should not even sell these These headphones are a complete waste of money. There is so much interference on these it's unbelievable. Please take these out of your store so that no one else falls victim to this scam. I'm serious. Date: 2008-10-31 Fantastic performance for the price. For less than $100, you can have wireless headphones that are RF rather than line-of-site IR, which means you can get up from the sofa, walk to the kitchen for a cool one, or even go relieve yourself from too many cool ones...while not missing any of the program audio. As with any over-the-ears full size headphones, they can make your ears sore if wearing them too long, but that's what commercials are for...when I take them off. I even use them when the entire family is watching something if I really want to listen and they're chatting about other things. My kids use them to play Rock Band without shaking the walls. My father-in-law used them during a visit, as he likes to stay up late watching movies. He absolutely loved them, so we ordered another set for his Christmas present. Date: 2008-10-30 DISAPPOINTING I puchased these so my wife can watch TV while I read. I'm in law school, so I read everyday for many many hours. Anyway, these headphones are horrible. I don't know if it's Sennheiser's problem, or if the technology for wireless headphones just isn't that great yet. In any case, here is a list of the problems we've had: 1)deafening static blares through them the second you push mute; basically, if no sound is going through them they start screaming at you so loud you almost throw them across the room. For instance, if my wife wants to tell me something, she pauses the tv and starts talking to me, but then the headphones send that horrible static through them within a few seconds so she has to pause the TV and turn the headphones off. This=annoying to her, and rightfully so. I'll take a long cord any day over that nonsense. 2) There seems to be a bit of static interference most of the time. Don't get me wrong, sometimes they sound great, but for the most part they do not. 3) We've also now had to replace the batteries, but we've only had them for about 1.5 mos. That=lame. Anyway, for the price these are not recommended. I thought I was buying my wife the Ferrari of headphones, but I ended up with something more like a Daewoo after suffering abuse for five years at a rental company. Again, I'm not sure if Sennheiser has anything to do with these problems; maybe the technology for these just isn't there yet. Date: 2008-10-29 Senny clear, crisp sound. No wires and I can walk around my entire apartment listening to TV or music, good range. Easy to use, just feels like very good quality item. Blocks out annoying neighbor and outside noises.
