Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got these to replace my Sony MX3s. They sound amazing and the bass boost is not over bearing. The surround option is pretty decent, but overall great headphones. The distance you can go from the receiver is pretty good as well with no drops.

Finally a high quality digital capable wireless head set at a reasonable price point. Now I don't get in trouble with the wife for waking the baby when watching the home theater. This system allows you to have up to 2 headphones connected to the same transmitter. The problem is that BB does not sell the head set only, you have to get from factory. I purchased two systems with transmitters so now I have a spare and can charge both headsets at once. Programming the headset is a snap, just place the headset on the charging station for a few seconds and your golden. Take time to down load the manual from the manufacturer website, what in the box is just a quick set up guide that doesn't give you much info. Installation only takes 2 minutes once you know how you will connect. I suggest using the optical connection if you want surround sound quality vs the analog 3mm plug. If your gonna spend the money on these headphone, go digital, if you want analog buy some cheap wireless units. Sound quality on these unit are fantastic! I like them better than my last set of Bose wired noise canceling set at a fraction of the cost!

Love RS 175 RF because I use it to listen to TV all the time. And if my wife wants to listen she can as the sound bar and the wireless headphone works in lue of or with the sound bar. The headset makes up for my hearing loss!

I wanted some good headphones so I can watch TV (especially movies) late at night when others are in bed. Took a chance on these after looking at reviews on various websites and I must say, I am very happy with this purchase. Does just what I wanted and the sound is great!

I have been using Sennheiser Wireless Headphones for over twenty years due to severe loss of hearing. One of my headphones finally quit working after 20 years plus, so obviously I wanted to replace with a Sennheiser product. So far, I like the new product, but I do miss being able to adjust volume for each ear. I am counting on this product being one of those "they still make them like they used to", and not the opposite.

Wow I can finally hear my tv shows and movie Blurays. These headphoones let me hear the presentation regardless of how much noise is being generated in the room from other sources. I also notice background sounds in the programs like for instance a scene inside a car which on the tv speaker only allows the dialog to be heard with these headphones I can hear the background music. I liked them so much I stopped by the store the other day to let the saleman know how plased I was with the purchase. The only drawback is during motion the sound will some times cut in and out but most of the time I can walk outside for an errand and still hear the show while outside.

I love these headphones. They were easy to set up and are comfortable to wear. The sound is great and love being able to get up and walk out of the room without having to take them off. Completely satisfied with this purchase.

Worked exactly as described. I use it strictly for movies but would work well for music too in a pinch.

Was an open box purchase and they work great. My husband can hear the TV without the volume turned up to the maximum level.

Great headphones with exceptional sound quality and bass. However, audio drops off randomly. Also, the rechargeable batteries don't last for 5 hours without recharging.

Bought these for my dad who hearing is going and causing a lot of conflict in the house over TV volume. The volume range is excellent and the "bass" button really works well. In addition, the 3 level "surround sound" works awesome. Comfort is good but due to the leather ear cup material, they tend to build up warmth due to constrained body heat though I've worn these for hours and felt comfortable in them. Be aware that these are definitely isolating headphones and you may not hear the phone ring when watching or be able to get the attention of someone who is. . These are pricey, but IMHO, worth the investment. -1/2 star for comfort -1/2 star for price. Overall a solid 4 star /5

I have always struggled with getting good headphones audio that captures a cinema feel with booming bass and clear speech. I also happen to live in a major city in an apartment building, so blasting a surround sound set up is a no-go. While I have the excellent Sony WHXM4s that pair with bluetooth to my tv, the audio delay and lip syncing issues that come with bluetooth are horrendous and really breaks immersion. These headphones were exactly what I wanted. First, the overall sound quality right out of the box is already amazing. I would have been perfectly happy even if there were no effects to choose. The bass is already boomy without being overpowered. Speech is crystal clear. I seriously have picked up on dialogue that used to be garbled. You can toggle a bass booster or a virtual surround sound effect. I use the bass booster on certain content that needs a bit more oomph, but I found the virtual surround effect to just make things sound tinny and leave it off. They already have an immersive sound without it. They also get LOUD. Almost every pair of bluetooth headphones have had disappointing max volumes. I love that I can crank it and never even get up to the max volume. Next, there is absolutely no audio delay or lip syncing issues I can perceive. The radiofrequency signal is vastly superior to bluetooth in this regard. Other pros include easy charging (just plop it on the stand when done) and solid battery life (Have binged for about 6 hours without charging and no issues). The range is also ridiculous. I went to the other end of my apartment and on the porch with no signal loss. They are also very comfortable. Absolutely no issues wearing for hours at a time. I have very few cons with this as I think this is arguably the best way to watch movies with headphones. The virtual surround effect is not great though, as mentioned. You also may run into interference because it is radiofrequency. I had a disconnect once, but this was solved by turning off my 2.4 ghz channel on my wifi router. Also, you will get interference if you run a microwave (but only if it is close by). I will also say that charging stand, while functional, is a little cheap-feeling. Lastly, a very minor thing, but I wish there were audio prompts when you turn it on or when the battery is low. Overall, these are just nit-picks and I am beyond satisfied with these headphones.

I've had Bose, Sony, the works and not one of those brands competes or compares to the Sennheiser Headphones. At times it sounds better than a complete 9.2 system and yes the .2 makes a difference. The ability to adjust the bass makes all the difference in the world. Thank you

This unit is so comfortable with incredible sound and bass. Has a great range and very easy to set up.

Sounds great fits like a glove very comfortable. Works well when kids or loud people are around so you can still hear the T.V. I like it very much.

Finally, my Bob can hear TV. He has severe hearing loss and could not hear the TV, even with it on full volume. He is si happy now.

We have tried Sony, RCA, Panasonic and a couple of others. These are so much better. You can hear every word and note. Easy to set up and use.

This is my second set of wireless Sennheiser headphones. I got about eight years of useful life out of my first set, until the (non-removable) battery in the headset stopped working. Therefore, the first thing I noticed in a positive way about this model (RS 175) was the fact that it runs on two (rechargeable) AAA-sized batteries. Not only can you replace AAA batteries as needed, you can have your headphones ready for use at all times—since, obviously, you can switch between sets of batteries. These aren’t noise-canceling headphones, but the over-the-ear design naturally does a bit to muffle the noise coming from your surroundings. I use the headphones to stay connected to what I’m listening to as I move around the house. If you—like me—use a device that has a 6.3mm headphone jack, note that the RS 175 transmitter station comes with a 3.5mm plug, and there is no adapter included. (In my case, that was no big deal; I did have an adapter handy.) The wireless range is specified at 328 feet. I haven’t been more than 30 feet away from the transmitter, but I can say this: Standing close to a microwave oven in operation can cause slight interferences, and slight dropouts may result from a lot of steel and concrete in the path. Okay, that was to be expected, and other than that, transmission/reception has been working very well. The transmitter sits about 3 feet away from the Wi-Fi router, and so far I have never noticed one interfering with the other. The controls on the headset are easy to get used to. The buttons are set up in a 4x4 array that is easy to “feel out.” It is also easy to learn what each button is for (volume up; volume down; surround sound; and bass boost). I don’t use the bass boost much; the sound coming from my stereo is just fine, and the headphones reproduce it well. The surround-sound options do make a difference, and there is that one option I have been keeping the phones set to, because it makes the sound “spatial” without making it feel artificial. The phones are adjustable three ways: up and down; tilt; and swivel. That part of the design works well for me, if the sideways pressure/grip is a little tight for my liking (my previous Sennheiser phones sat over my ears more loosely). The fact that I wear glasses is not the issue here, but the pressure does get a bit uncomfortable after some time, and it does get warm underneath these phones. Okay, that drawback is relatively minor; I only need the headphones for maybe up to 30 minutes at a time. All in all, this seems like a reliable gizmo that does what I need it to do, and does it well.

These earphones have absolutely wonderful sound qualities; everything the sales person said, beautiful deep bass qualities and multiple methods of sound projections to the ears. Only drawback is paucity of directions.

Great option for anyone needing volume too high for everyone else’s comfort…They work very well and were simple to connect. The rechargeable base is perfect and easy to charge each night.
