 Very good wireless for TV stereo listening October 30, 2005
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Not much to add to the other positive reviews of this headset. This is not a wireless headset for flawless signaling while listening to hi-fi stereo. This is an excellent wireless headset for listening to stereo TV, or casually listening to stereo music. If you turn up the volume on the headset you will hear background hissing. What I suggest for TV listening and extremely low background hiss, is to turn the volume on the headset quite low, and increase the volume on the television set accordingly. In doing this, I can get the background hiss to almost undetectable levels. This is a very very good pair of wireless headsets with the expectations set to those mentioned above. Highly recommended. Note that the battery charge on the headset is extremely good (35 hours with the supplied rechargeable and you can order a 60 hour rechargeable)
 Not for use on Treadmill November 9, 2006

I bought these headphones to watch TV while on the treadmill. They don't work at all for that purpose. Interference from the motor causes them to cut-out. They work great when I stop the treadmill.
 Wireless headphones November 10, 2006

These headphones do not possess the latest technology, but just work. You do need 'line of sight' to the transmitter, for them to work, but that is just about the only con I've found. They are really comfortable to wear, even after a few hours, but the best thing they have is the battery life.
With the supplied rechargeable batteries, they are supposed to last up to 40 hours on a single charge. The longest I've used them is for 12 hours straight and for another 8 hours the next day before recharging them and did not fail. Recharging them is a matter of leaving them on the cradle/transmitter overnight, and they will be ready for the next day. If you go with regular batteries (optional) they are supposed to last for over 60 hours before they need to be replaced, which is a great option, allowing you to use regular batteries after the rechargeable ones finally wear out and get another set.
I bought them to use with my computer to replace regular headphones, and installation was as simple as plugging in the connectors, and the transmitter power supply. They just worked. I've also hooked them up to my stereo and TV with the same ease, and am seriously thinking about purchasing another pair to save me from plugging and unplugging them from different appliances.
Just what I wanted November 10, 2006

I bought these as a gift for my husband to watch TV late at night without disturbing me. He loves them. The sound is fine and the headphones are comfortable.
Way above average November 10, 2006

I bought these for my elderly Father who doesn't hear very well. Lets just say, I'm the favorite Son once again.
