(Unofficial) Wireless Headphones Review Thread

[awongus]

I know this borders on blasphemy in this forum, but I didn't know where else to put this, and these headphones literally saved my marriage.

I recently got a pair of Sennheiser RS160's, and they are simply WONDERFUL. I can now plug them in to my Denon AVR at nite and listen to my BD's or play my games in all their glory...w/out waking the wife and kids!

Now, I'm by no means an audiophile, but I can say that these sound pretty damn good. No interference, hissing or dropouts whatsoever. SUPER easy to setup (basically plug n play), comfortable, light, rechargeable and the range (20 meters?) is excellent. It's gotten to the point where I actually prefer to watch/play with these on, b/c I pick up so much more of the subtleties in the audio than I do when the sound is pumping thru my 5.1 setup.

All in all, I can't say enuff good things about these. Admittedly, they're a bit steep (@ $200), but worth every penny IMHO. If ur looking for a set of cans to use at nite, and don't want to deal with messy wires all over the place, look no further. U won't be sorry...and ur wife/GF/SO/roomates will thank u.

It is not blashphemy to talk about wireless headphones. However, this is the wrong place to start a thread about them. Headphones are discussed in a different section. I will move your thread there.

I wrote a review of the Sennheiser RS180 wireless headphones awhile back...

Here is a link to my short review:

Best Wireless Headphones! RS180 Review

I use a pair of Sennheiser RS120's, definitely great for watching TV at night when the wife is asleep...now if I could only convince her to wear them when I want to sleep!

So is $200 the best price on these? I really need to get something in my house to put over my ears when trying to watch a movie. Unlike my wife and son, I'm a bit of a night owl. So I'd like a nice, wireless head set. I've almost bought those cheapy one's that they advertise on tv, but I'm sure those are a headache if anything.

I am looking around and pricing something surround sound and wireless. I thank my 4 year old daughter for wanting these when it is time to relax...lol.
