Amazon.com Product Description
The Advent ADVW-791 wireless headphones let you walk unencumbered around the room while still watching a movie or listening to your favorite tunes--all without waking the kids or disturbing the neighbors. The system employs a 900 MHz wireless transmitter that broadcasts up to 150 feet away, including through walls, floors, or ceilings. Should you wander upstairs or outside, the headphones' rich, dynamic sound will still shine through, provided you stay within range of the transmitter. More importantly, the quality of the sound never falters thanks to the patented SRS technology, which creates a surround-like environment through the headphone drivers. Movies soundtracks will sound crisp and immersive, while music will retain the same elegant highs and powerful lows you've come to expect from your stereo system. Adding to the phones' value are the soft, form-fitting earpads and adjustable headband, which keep you listening in comfort throughout the evening. Your neck will thank you later. Advent also chose to integrate PLL technology within the receiver. PLL locks the frequency once it receives a good signal, so you won't hear static or lose the reception at the most critical moment. Additional features include auto tuning, which adjusts the frequency for the best possible reception, and an up-and-down volume control that lets you adjust the volume level without getting up off the sofa. The ADVW-791 headphones run on either rechargeable ni-cad batteries (included) or traditional AAAs. They're also backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor. What's in the Box

Summary: Works far better than expected 2007-02-11
Comment: After reading reviews of wireless headphones, it was very surprizing just how well these work. We use them on a treadmill, around 18 ft from the TV, and the sound is cristal clear. We have to wireless networks in the house and wireless phones, and cannot hear any major issues.
As to the overall quality of sound. The S/N ratio leaves a bit to be desired, but you can only notice it, if there is nothing being played.
Would buy then again.

Summary: Leaves much to be desired 2006-02-08
Comment: The sound quality is horrible. I don't have other products to compare this with. But I don't believe you'd expect so much static. I leave my reception "dock" only about 2' to 3' away from the headphones and there's static/noise.
There is no battery indicator, so after an hour or two of use, the sound will start to flicker out. The recharging cable (plugs in from the dock to the headset) is too short to plug in and use the headphones at the same time. Of course, it doesn't help that the battery life is very short as well.
The reason I gave it 2 stars is that when the headset is fully charged, even though there's some noise, it'll be a consistent low noise even if you're 20'-30' away.
I wouldn't recommend this product.
