 Painful to wear March 1, 2003
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
The headphones work pretty well. I bought them because I already had Advent wireless speakers, and I wouldn't have to set up another transmitter. The sound quality if fine, and I don't have much of a problem tuning the headphones to receive the signal from the stereo. But, after wearing them for few minutes it gets to be painful. They hurt too much to wear them for more than a few minutes at a time, and there is no way to adjust them so that they don't cause pain!
 Very happy with my Advent AW720 headphones! February 24, 2006

Very happy with this product. I am able to walk through my whole 4 room apartment without missing a word or a song on these quite clear sounding headphones.It took a couple of minutes to tune the transmitter, but after that I never had to retune .

This is a good product for less money and it works but remember to tune it in right and fool with it!!! Takes maybe a week but once you get it tuned right I got over 150 ft reception. Now here is my tip...the headphones are just OK so I got a new Sony wireless 900 MHz RF 945RK hoping it would be better the headphones are but the Sony base does not work as well as the Advent so I just tuned my Sony headphones to the Advent base I get over 300 feet reception and have driven off with headphones on down the street..and they still receive over 300-500 feet amazing.Go with Advent base and Sony headphones ... or at least try it somehow they match well...go figure.

Hurt my head! February 10, 2003

I tested the Advent AW770, Advent AW720 and the RCA WHP160 headphones. The audio quality was comparable on all 3--not bad for a [money]set of headphones, but the Advent phones each had drawbacks. The Advent phones had to be manually tuned to the right frequency. That was just too big a pain in the xxx for me. These, the AW720, were so tight on my head that they hurt! I couldn't find a way to adjust the tension. Unless you have a really tiny head, don't buy these phones! I recommend the RCA WHP160 phones in this price range.
inexpensive and lightweight, with some room for improvement. November 24, 2003

the fit is rather comfortable, though the earcups only rotate around 1 axis, versus 2 as in better headphones.the sound is loud and bright, but reception is not ideal. its not that it ever loses the signal, but rather the noise is often audible, even when used in same room as transmitter. certainly NOT for music buffs, but i bought it for use with television for which this is sufficient. also tuning is manual, and though you theoretically only need to set it once, it would still make for a sleeker product if it automatically locked to the correct frequency, after all, you don't need to tune your cordless phone do you? battery indicator would be another useful feature that was ommited, the way you find out that battery died is when you suddenly lose reception for no reason, it comes back after you replace the batteries. this unit features a built in charger, but i use my microprocessor-controlled MAHA charger, and NI-MH batteries. all in all, you can't ask for more at this price, but you can definitely ask for more :)
