Wireless Headphones.......2007-02-02
Pros: Very comfortable for extended listening. Excellent to outstanding sound quality. Excellent operation, when in same area of transmitter. Spare battery, so a charged one is always ready. Excellent product support.
Cons: Rating of 100 - 300 ft reception (one important consideration in purchase) may be possible; however, in my situation it isn't there. With the transmitter located in my den (lower level) clipping occurs in the upper rooms less than 35 - 50 ft away. Reception is problematic, also, outdoors - again, less than 50 feet from the transmitter. Reception depends largely on your homes construction, obstacles between the transmitter and headphones, other devices operating on the same frequency - so, wearing these boys while mowing the lawn just isn't going to be a pleasant experience.
Construction is adequate, if the phones are handled somewhat carefully. The area where the ear pieces are attached and allow them to swivel is the weak link. This area is really small for the task and one broke from the simple act of putting them on and taking them off. That's why I can comment on the company's product support, they replaced them sans any charge.
Price. Fairly high, especially if the range is a primary factor. In my case, only able to use these phones while in the same area as the transmitter, I probably could have made a cheaper choice and received comparable results.
Not perfect but way better than many reviews!.......2005-12-08
Given the wide range of user review scores I was really anxious to see how well this product performed. I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality for wireless headphones. When you are in the same room there is no static and usually in close by rooms there is very little either. But the further you go the more you get static that sounds like someone saying "shhhh" which is not too annoying.
I made sure that I plugged the power supply into a good surge suppressor with EMI and RFI filtering and have found no interferance from other sources at all.
So far I mostly have used the headphones for listening to my PolkAudio XM component receiver which requires a south facing window for the antenna. What a great combo! Great sounding XM anywhere in the house.
Like so many reviewers have said, these headphones are to be treated carefully due to their lightweight plastic construction. And the over the ear cups are a bit small but serve to hold the phones on very securely and still comfortably. Overall, I am (so far) very pleased with this purchase.
Good enough to buy another!.......2005-10-11
I bought my first pair of these Sennheiser headphones so that I could watch HiDef/DVD in bed while my wife went to sleep. It's not my first experience with wireless, but the best to date.
Good enough that I've ordered a second pair for use in another room.
And it's actually my third set because the first pair I bought was a gift for someone who allowed me to try them out for a few days. That was enough to convince me.
I've previously used other Sennheiser professional gear. In some cases in the past I found the sound satisfying but the ergonomics less so, i.e. an earlier set of noise suppressors worked wonderfully but were awkward to carry on a plane. And I've tried a variety of other wireless headphones of assorted major brands. These are the best to date. No they don't quite measure up to wired very high end headsets, but they're pretty darned good. Signal carries from one room of a largish house to another with very few artifacts, also much superior to other wireless phones tried.
I can't explain people who cite almost immediate failure. They are well made.
Acceptable while it lasted, but..........2005-09-26
No wireless headphone is ever going to sound like a good direct wired headphone. I knew that going in, and I found the sound quality acceptable. Not up to a good direct wired headphone, but pretty good in the context of a wireless headphone. Wireless range is somewhat limited, I was not able to get a noise free signal in all the rooms of my house. All that would have satisfied my wireless expectations but...
The darn thing crapped out after a few months. This unit is not up to Sennheiser's usual quality. I'm sorry I wasted my money on it.
Didn't work for me.......2005-03-05
These headphones were defective and I had to return them. For the 10 minutes they worked, they sounded great.

Bush Furniture's Verona entertainment collection combines sleek shaping with inviting materials to offer a handsome style that nestles right into a den, living room, or bedroom. This audio tower holds stereo components on five spacious levels featuring black leatherette upholstery with stitched detailing. At each of the tower's corners stands a round metal post in a soft satin-steel finish for clean-lined, airy support. Keeping things tidy, the wide back spine is perforated with oval cutouts to allow cords and wires to tuck away inconspicuously. The tower measures 25-1/2 inches wide by 25 inches deep by 50-1/2 inches high and has been tested for tip-free safety. Assembly is required, and instructions and a toll-free customer help line are included. It comes with a one-year warranty. --Kara Karll
