    These headphones have made things in our house much easier. My wife goes to sleep early and I'm often a night owl. With the headphones on I can hear everything on TV easily and not disturb her sleep. Yaay!

    I love Sennheiser headphones. I have two different pairs, including the lauded HD6XXs. These just didn't cut the mustard. The sound was constantly cutting in and out, which is absolutely unacceptable. It's possible that I got a bad set, but I returned these the very next day.

    We were unable to get it to work with our home media configuration. We even bought a new optical cable. Even more we had Geek Squad come over to try to get it to work. The rep. was also unable to get it to work. We tried to return it to Best Buy but was told it was beyond the 30 day return period. This is the first time I have been unhappy with Best Buy!!

    I got what I was looking for, great surround sound, and as much volume as I wanted, without annoying the neighbors! However, the dropouts were frequent enough, without any clear reason - to be annoying

    These make it so convenient to listen to television without disturbing the rest of the household. I love them. Also great for grabbing a workout and watching an episode on tv without having to blast the volume.

    These are my favorite wireless headphones for watching t.v. and I've tried plenty. There are other models by Sennheiser that I've had in the past that were also great buy this model is my favorite because of the listening options.

    My father-in-law was hard hearing and when he moved in he turned the tv up so load that it was hard to remain in the room. I purchased the RS-175 for him and he loved them. He adjusted the volume on the headphones and I adjusted the tv volume. Was great.

    Bought these as a gift for my mother-in-law who has a difficult time hearing the TV unless volume is up too high. She said these help her to listen and more clearly hear spoken words on TV without disturbing everyone else.

    RS175 operated great just that my ears got too hot fue to the plastic ear covers. RS185 has felt material which are more comfortable and less prone to getting hot. My RS185 is hooked to my Samsung un65JS9000 and is now perfect after using it for over a month.

    I would have liked more volume for me. I wear hearing aids. I can hear but one channel (NBC) well without hearing aids. So NBC I need to wear aids. All others channels my wireless headphones are great.

    The sales person who recommended these headphones to me did a very good job and should be commended. They are great headphones and have worked flawlessly since I purchased them.

    Doesn't work on internet movies, DVD player or streaming. Charge runs out really fast. Sound is fantastic. Great product despite the few flaws. Which Maybe user error.

    Lots of hissing, I might not have set them up correctly. Will be returning for something else at Best Buy.
