Sennheiser Electronic WIRELESS HEADPHONE RS160

 (2 customer reviews)

Purchased RS 160 headphones for 90 year old father. Placed transmitter up high on top of furniture where the old 900 MHz transmitter was and cables already existed to A/V equipment in entertainment console. Headphones worked pretty well out of the box. Buttons are too close together and multifunction button is hard to locate by feeling and somewhat tricky for an older person to use. When the headpones are set down for the evening or for too long a period of time, they will not work the next morning or after too long a period of time. The transmitter will switch to standby mode and will not wake up unless you touch the button on the transmitter. If you have placed the transmitter in an inaccessible location to hide it and give good coverate, you are out of luck until you gain access to it. Multiple times a day. Another example of a product designed by somebody who doesn't have to use it. I would not buy these headphones again and I am attempting to return them.

I have had this headset for over two years and it has worked very well. Not sure why anybody would dislike this product. I use these headphones for work and have used various other wireless headphones e.g. Sony and these are much better set being that this headset is digital. They have a great wireless range. I would recommend a set of these to anyone. Buy them refurbished like me to try save on the hefty price tag.
