Really Great Headphones - Infrared Wireless Headphones Review

By Elizabeth Stewart


I will experiment with them soon and update this review. Range can severely suffer if you start walking around corners or have too much between the headphones and the transmitter. So, that's probably an unavoidable issue. However, all my complaints combined don't add up to the loss of a full star.

This was entirely the fault of the Sony. Having said that, the sheer ability of this set to reproduce sound simply overcame the shortcomings.

So, I'm very happy to rate these headphones at an Excellent 5 stars out of 5. It took me a long time to pull the trigger on these headphones, but believe me it was well worth the money. I have read almost all of the reviews prior to buying this product. I have used a "FEW" electronic products in my 53 years of being in the electronics industry.

I've had the privilege of hearing some the best headphones on the market both wired and wireless and I can honestly say when it comes to sound quality. Noteworthy Features- These headphones provide great sound quality (to be expected from Sennheiser), and very easy to set-up. It may not have the high quality of the digital systems, but it has enhanced my quality time with my family. I have several brands of wireless headphones including the Senheiser models 110, 120, and now the 180. I finally ended up with the Blu ray of Transformers. Now again I have to mention that my Sony receiver was found lacking.

I'm impressed by the clarity and 'crispness' of the sound and good reproduction of lower frequencies. Comfortable to wear even for an extended time - easy to set up and use Cons: - power button on base station difficult to operate with one hand.

I have even stepped outside in the backyard with no problems. All in all great stuff, I would get them again. I red some comments before I bought them that they are difficult to pair - I didn't find that at all. In fact, as soon as powered up the transmitter and put the batteries in, they came right on! Very good sound quality for an audiophile ear, but they won't be your best headphone if you're an audiophile. They are light, non-fatiguing and immensely enjoyable.

On the RS140s, the volume was just a scroll wheel that could be easily located and adjusted quickly, for instance, when you want to shut up "Crazy Larry's" TV commercial. The sound is not well-suited to TV listening either. The only thing coming through the headphones is a beautiful reproduction of the source material. The sound coming through these FAR surpasses anything coming out of my VIZIO Class XVT Series TruLED XVT472SV 47-Inch 240 Hz SPS LCD HDTV (Black). The sound is really great quality, and because they are so lightweight, you can probably wear them for hours without any discomfort. I highly recommend these headphones, especially for couples who don't have the exact same sleep schedule.
