Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sennheiser HDR120 Supplemental HiFi Wireless Headphone for RS-120 System (charging/transmitter base not included)Customer Review: Nice to be wireless Summary: 4 Stars
My wife and I have a small child and we are always afraid to wake him up by watching TV at night. It's great to be able to put these on and each set the volume to our liking (we got the extra set of headphones along with the base station) and know that we won't wake him up.
The range seems great. I can use them all over my house while getting up to go to the kitchen for a snack during a movie or to the bathroom and still hear everything. Battery life is also good, I've used them on and off for a few days without recharging and had no issues. The only thing is that you can only charge one at a time, so if you have two like we do, make sure you alternate which one you are charging so you don't end up with a dead pair when you want to watch something.
Tuning them in can be an issue, and there is almost always a very faint hissing sound, but when you are actually watching a movie or playing a game, you don't notice it. I have tons of wireless stuff in my house with phones, routers, other wireless devices, etc and haven't had any exceptional problems with interference. The hissing isn't loud enough to be a distraction to me or my wife, but audiophiles or picky listeners may find it more distracting than we do.
One thing to be aware of is that a lot of newer TVs and even home theaters do not have headphone jacks anymore. I plug the headphones into my Mac Mini computer which we have hooked up to the TV as a media center, but I can't plug them directly into our TV or into our Sony "Soundbar" speaker system, as neither one of them have headphone jacks or RCA Audio Out (the red and white connectors). So, make sure they'll actually work for you with your setup. If you only have optical audio out on your home theater system or TV, you may have to find headphones that support that type of connection, and they are quite a bit more expensive.
Setup is as easy as plugging the base up to the power outlet and into your audio source. You may have to adjust the tuning knob to get a good signal as well. Like I said it can take some fine-tuning to get it just right, but after I had it setup I haven't had to mess with it since.
The headphones are very comfortable for my wife and I both. I've worn them for some marathon gaming sessions and never found them to be uncomfortable.
I'd recommend these headphones to anyone looking for some wireless headphones. I think they are a reasonable price and good quality for the money.
