Remanufactured Sennheiser Customer Review(s):
Summary: GREAT product ESPECIALLY at this price Rating: 5 (out of 5) Comment: We bought TWO of these they were so good. Only took a couple of minutes to 'dial them in' to the right frequency and then they gave CRYSTAL CLEAR sound. Perfect solution to teenagers staying up late watching TV and keeping working dad awake 8-) Also work great while working out on Precor (eliptical trainer) and watching DirecTV in HD or listening to CD quality DirecTV music. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! .........................................................................................................................................................................
Summary: The best wireless headphones I've ever used Rating: 5 (out of 5) Comment: I've owned a couple of different types of wireless headphones and listened to a couple of other brands owned by other people. Every other one I have ever tried has had some static noise, especially when you move around the room with them. I had returned a pair of the infrared headphones after being completely disgusted with the high-pitched noise generated by the computer, etc... I had pretty much given up on wireless, that is until now. These are utterly quiet and the sound quality is outstanding. I am completely satisfied with them. I recommend them without any hesitation or reservations. I won't even look at another brand now. .........................................................................................................................................................................
Summary: Good, except for auto on/off and ear pads Rating: 4 (out of 5) Comment: These are some pretty decent RF headphones. Very little hiss in the background, great range - the only thing I don't like is the auto onoff feature. For those who don't know what this is, the transmitter on the base doesn't start transmitting unless it 'hears' enough sound for it to go. When the sound source is turned off and it doesn't 'hear' anything anymore, it stops transmitting after a few minutes and you hear static in the headphones. It's basically a good idea, but not practical ifwhen working with different types of audio sources.
This feature can be difficult if (in my case) you are working with the headphones on a computer, where sounds come and go at different intervals (IM noises, prompts, pausing a DVD, etc.). I also use the headphones with a 15' television (no cable) that has headphone port for private viewing. While watching the TV with the headphones (the included LR-116 adapter is very nice) the headphone transition cuts out every 5 minutes for a few seconds then starts again. This is probably because of the low audio strength coming from the cable-less TV, but it's just another reason why there should be a manual ONOFF TRANSMIT switch on the base unit.
The only other drawback is that, unlike many other headphone types, Sennheiser has chosen to make very flat ear pieces. Most other headphones have the 'can' type, which have a thick outer rim, allowing your ears to be closer to their natural position. With these Sennheisers my ears are frequently squished against my head, sometimes for many hours - which anyone will tell you has its own definition of pain. I'll point out that the pain only happens when I wear glasses and have the headphones on for a long time. If I have contacts in (which is mostly the case) or place the legs of the glasses above my ears, it rarely hurts to have the headphones on for the same time.
All in all, pretty good wireless headphones for consistent audio listeners, and people without glasses. .........................................................................................................................................................................
