Sennheiser RS120 926 MHz Wireless RF Headphones with Charging Cradle

Comment: After fighting with these headphones for a few hours tonight, I felt compelled to write my VERY FIRST review here on Amazon! That's how completely disappointed I am in this unit. Hopefully this will save others from making the mistake of purchasing these.

As the title says, the auto-off feature renders these headphones utterly useless. They work fine for awhile, then suddenly turn off, even though there is no break in the audio! When the unit shuts off, the resulting loud static through the headphones is jolting, to say the least. After the first time, the automatic shut-off seemed to become more frequent (every five minutes or so), even though there was plenty of sound. I'd give zero stars if I could.

Comment: Overall, I enjoy these headphones...they have a few major design flaws though.

GOOD
-Perfect weight, not too heavy not too light
-Actual sound is nice and rich
-Charging dock looks neat...and works just fine
-Charging dock uses swappable cables(the input is 3.5mm so you can use any cable)
-Includes accessories

BAD
-Auto shut off triggers after about 1 minute of silence....then HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
-Fair range, static begins after 13 feet.

Comment: Do not buy it! It says two years warranty, yet not return address was provided. Mine went dead after 2 months, changing batteries did not help, if you lost the check for this item you bought - you just lost over 60 $. By association, I am not gonna buy any products under Sennheiser name.

Comment: We live in a thirty two foot fifth wheel trailer, which allows us to stay where the weather is nicer and see some of our great country. We have two televisions and sometimes outside noise (planes and trains or construction) interfere with viewing pleasure. My wife and I thought this item would afford a way to assist her in hearing the television as well as allow the sound to be off on the livingroom TV so the bedroom TV could be viewed without dealing with the sound of another TV.
We feel the headphones are excellent in sound quality. The charging dock is convenient. Our problem is the fit for my wife. If you have a smaller head size (my wife wears size 6 1/4 hat) the headphones are loose and fall when she bends forward. They fit my size 7 1/8 head just fine. The information with the headphones cautions against storing them over anything which would spread them. From the day we received them they have been too wide as they are now. No instruction was given to cause them to be smaller or closer together. So if you are buying for a smaller head you might want to consider another brand or style.

Comment: If you can only spend $50, these'll do. They're not great but they're better than tripping over a headphone extension cord. Now...

My spot is 10-15 ft. away from the base unit. If I tilt my head the wrong way or something, I get "fuzz" along with the source material until I adjust how I'm sitting. Next, because these don't fit over your ear but rather rest entirely on your ear, they are uncomfortable after more than an hour or so. Lastly, the sound quality is less than ideal. I suspect those of you with iPods and Zunes get better audio quality from your stock ear buds.

Taking all of that into account... If you can't afford the $200 and up sets, these do work and I've been using mine for over a year. Regular headphones, like these, in a wireless model keep getting harder and harder to find.
