Summary: Nice, but not perfect 2008-08-06
Comment: When my wife gave me these as a replacement for the worn out Sony's I had been using, I was actually a little disappointed. I liked what I was using.
For the record, these are my computer headphones. I'd guess that I wear them at least two hours every day. I've had the 140's for at least a year now.
The sound is nice. Not audiophile quality, and not as nice as the old $100 Sony's these replaced.
The fit is not *quite* right for me. I have a large head and fully extended these are just barely large enough. I frequently wear a thin wool cap in the winter and that little bit of difference makes them uncomfortable.
Range is not important to me, but they do pick up fine throughout my house if I get up and walk around. Oddly though, they are the most temperamental when sitting right in front of the computer. Every so often I will start hearing static and will have to reach back and move the base slightly. I'm not sure what causes this. I'm bad about leaving the headset off the charger, so it could be a battery going low.
Again, these aren't perfect, but at this point I'm not sure if I could go back to a wired headset now that I'm used to these.

Summary: Excellent Product (Once Properly Setup) 2006-08-31
Comment: This is the best headset I have ever owned. It has superior quality sound and blocks almost 100% of external noise, an invaluable feature for folks who live in apartments or otherwise noisy neighborhoods as I do. It also allows you to change the balance of Right and Left and use a Compression feature should you be suffering from some hearing loss. Further, the Amazon price, especially on the refurbished unit, simply can not be beat. However, I have to confess that I almost returned the headset at first for a very foolish reason. It kept shutting off on me so I thought it had to do with interference from aircraft that regularly fly near my location, or my crazy neighbor's wireless equipment, etc. The refurbished products do not come with a manual so I contacted Sennheiser by e-mail and received a prompt response, a user manual, and a phone number to call with any additional questions. It ultimately turned out that I had simply failed to properly charge the complimentary NiMh batteries! :-) I felt like a colossal fool! :-) I also discovered that if you connect it to the audio connectors on the back of your TV or, even better, a receiver if you have one, you get much better results; the output of "Headphone" jacks is not anywhere as good and most are monaural anyway.
I have my headset connected to my Home Theater Receiver now and it works like a charm. Anyway, I am glad I did not return it. It is an excellent product from a company that seems to provide outstanding service. If you buy this, and I would most definitely recommend that you do, just e-mail them and get a user guide .
