Amazon.com Product Description Experience total audio immersion and freedom with the Sennheiser RS 130 wireless headphones. With an SRS surround sound mode that can be switched on or off, and a design that completely encases your ears, the RS 130s are ideal for kicking back on the couch with a DVD when the rest of the house is asleep. Or, maybe you want to dance to the music from your hi-fi system while doing some laundry. With the RS 130s you can move around freely while enjoying audiophile-class sound wherever you roam. While many wireless headphones suffer from poor reception, the RS 130s have the problem licked with intelligent auto tuning and a self-learning automatic signal level control that provides maximum signal reception and a range of up to 150 meters. The headphones are lightweight, too, making them very comfortable to wear. The included transmitter and stand makes recharging the headphone batteries easy; simply hang the headphones on the charging cradle and you're good to go. With an operating time of approximately 22 hours, though, plan on spending most of your time enjoying rich sound and maximum mobility. What's in the Box RS 130 headphones, rechargeable NiMH battery pack, transmitter and recharging stand, AC adapter, user's manual.
Product Description Wireless headphones are popular among home-theater devotees who like to indulge in uninhibited late night movies, as well as music lovers who don't want to be tied down to their receivers or computers. Sennheiser is one of Germany's leading headphone manufacturers and a major proponent of wireless technology, so we couldn't wait to try the RS130. The Sennheiser RS130s are very light, just 9.8 ounces, and we found them extremely comfortable over a long evening of watching DVDs. This set of Open-Air headphones comes with a stylish base station/charger that houses a 900MHz wireless transmitter. The newly revised system is fitted with Sennheiser's Intelligent Auto Tuning system, which automatically selects the best of three available base-to-headset channels to ensure the lowest-possible distortion and noise. To charge the headphones' two AAA nickel-metal-hydride batteries, just place the RS130s on the cradle of the transmitter base. Fully charged, the headphones will play for as long as 22 hours with built-in volume control. The base/charger can be mounted on the wall or placed near your components. All of the adapters and necessary cables are included for stereo output. The RS130 also features Sennheiser's SRS Headphone virtual-surround-sound system. SRS is compatible with two-channel audio sources such as CDs and DVDs. SRS opened up the sound a bit so that it was less stuck inside the listener's head, but it also made the sound more echo and reverberant. Some people will like the effect, others won't. We didn't and opted to switch it off.

Disappointingly faulty product July 26, 2010 S. Brandt (LA CA) Worked for one test period then ceased to power on ever again.
Better results after replacing with $20 no-name product.
Great headphones July 14, 2010 Matthew Beyer A fantastic pair of wireless headphones. Compared to cheap-o headphones I've tried, the sound quality is stellar. It tends to drop off as you get far away from the docking thing, but it should be perfectly sufficient to going around an average sized house as long as you keep the doors open.
Wireless headphones June 9, 2010 Sherrell L. Pizura (Prattsburgh, NY USA) These saved my sanity! He couldn't hear the tv...and I could hear it outside the house. Now, I can listen at a volume comfortable for me and he can listen as loud as he needs it. Great sound - I use them when he's not around because it sounds like a surround sound system. Really easy to hook up, great distance (he leaves them on to go get a snack or use the facilities and doesn't miss a word), light weight and comfortable and holds a charge for a long time (even though all you have to do to recharge is hang them up on their stand...so easy). Definitely a keeper!!! Great investment.
Hiss, pop and crackle June 1, 2010 Eswar Sundar (Brookline, Massachusetts USA) I bought these Headphones and Iam totally disappointed. I wanted these headphones as I workout in the wee hours of the morning and would like to watch TV at the same time without disturbing the kids. At low source volumes (TV sound volume) and me 20 feet away from it there is constant hissing and swishing sounds especially as my head moves while working out. Raising the TV volume reduces this, but then defeats the purpose of headphone completely (do not want to disturb the household!) Also i constantly lose reception every 10-15 min and get cut off and though sometimes it scans and reaquires. I often have to manually turn the headphones off and on.
I would certainly stay away from Sennheiser headphones. They are not worth the top dollar I paid for it.
Fantastic Choice May 22, 2010 D. Craig (Trinity, FL USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was suprised to get these last Christmas as I considered them fairly expensive but now that I have them I consider them an integral part of my TV room experience. They are so comfortable, I can fall asleep with them on and not notice it. The sound quality is excellent and there is certainly no problem with their power or audio levels.
The self-charging station is awesome and it will play for many hours on one charge.
I have no issues with the distance afforded by this unit as I have never reached the limit normally getting up to go in another room but, like any wireless product, it will get a little staticy when I turn my head in a specific way in the room. But that is the fault of other interferences I have in the house. Excellent product!
