Acoustic Research Wireless Stereo Headphones with Auto Tuning

 (38 customer reviews)

In July 2006 I purchased a set of aw771 headphones. After using them for 3 weeks I had to return them as the charger would not charge the batteries that came with the headphones. On August 20, 2006, I returned the AW771 headphones and purchased AW772 headphones. I used the new headphones until October 10th. I removed the batteries and unplugged the set as I did not have a need for them until early December. When I was ready to use the headphones again I plugged them in, recharged the batteries and sat down to use them only they wouldn't work. I tried 3 other sets of rechargable batteries to no avail. For both sets of headphones I had to turn my TV volume to maximum to get them to work. I have tried contacting Acoustic Research via Email but have not received an answer. Based on my experience with two different sets of headphones I could not recommend them.

Saw the negative reviews on these and felt compelled to write this. Build quality for the dollar is excellent. Sound quality is very good compared to even wired headphones. Better than Sony's wireless and the best in wireless unless you want to spend over $150 for Sennheisers. The auto-tune works perfectly. Batteries are better NIMH and easily replaceable if needed.

The only slight con....could sit better in charging cradle....must make sure they don't shift and charge light is on.

Quality for this wireless headphones is great. Compare with the cord one, there is not much different. Easy to setup and great deal to purchase in Amazon. I did the research in most popular companies, you cannot find any great deal like here.
