    I had an earlier model of these headphones. A foam pad on the ear. These are a lot heavier. The sound is good, they are totally over the ear and the vinyl surrounding the ears get sweaty in warm weather... I have not had the issues with sound dropping off as others mentioned. When hanging back on the docking transmitter / charger after using you have to make sure it clicks in the right place in order to charge . Not as easy as the earlier model

    Purchased these for my husband for Christmas. He works second shift and arrives home after midnight. There has been a few times I have been woken up when he was watching movies. He was using his old plug in headphones on his older plasma tv. We decided to move that tv into our son’s room so we took our LG OLED and moved it into our family room. Needless to say, those old headphones were not compatible with newer Smart TVs. He’s been very happy with them. The sounds are crystal clear. He enjoys watching concerts on dvds and you can really hear the different instruments. Holds a charge for days.

    Fantastic Headphones

    I bought these to replace my Rocketfish RF-WHP01 headphones that finally quit after 12 years. Set up was simple I just plugged them into the headphone jack on my tv. I am amazed by the quality of the sound. All the tv channels sound good but programs broadcast in 5.1ch which you find on CBS, ABC, FOX, NBC and the CW will let you hear sounds that you have never heard before. I find that listening with the bass boost on and the surround set to low gives the best result. If you want to be immersed in the audio of your programs these headphones will get you there! The only downside I found was they seemed a bit tight at first, but after wearing them for a while they have loosened up and are much more comfortable.

    All is good except distance you can be from the TV. The range is disappointing. You can only be a very few feet from it or you get no sound.

    RS 175 Headphone. Great Sound! Comfortable

    These are great sounding headphones. They do a very good job of canceling ambient noise due to the ear cushions. I compared these to Sony WH-L600 and I felt the Sennheiser HS 175s sounded better. The HS 175 have simulated Surround Sound which sounds fine to me. The Sony's have true 5.1 but they didn't sound nearly as good. Two things I like about the Sennheiser phones is they use two AAA NiMH batteries that are easily changed if needed. Also OEM replacement ear cushions and headband cushions are readily available from Sennheiser and other retailers. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend the HS 175 headphones to anyone looking for true to life sound.

    Headphones For The Elderly Who Don't Hear Well

    I use this Sennheiser wireless headphone when watching TV with my wife and others. My hearing has declined to such a degree that without the headphones I have to increase the volume so much that others with normal hearing object to the volume level. These headphones provide me with a volume level that allows me to hear the program without annoying others.

    TOP NOTCH! Why are gamers not using these more often? Audio quality is excellent. Wireless 24 bit 196kz! Seriously! Great battery life, and pros for having the ability to change batteries out whenever you need. Comfy and easy to use. No brainer. I game with these, work audio master with them, everything sounds great and accurate! And the range on the headphones is insane. Crazy Insane. Cons? 1. Charging takes a while. DEF CHARGE TO FULL first time! I know you want to try but it does take 16 hours lol. 2. I had one time it was cutting out. They change RF channels everytime they shut down. So if it cuts out? Shut it down and turn it on.

    Very pleased with this setup. I have other Sennheiser products and they never disappoint. The RF connectivity is much more stable than Bluetooth. Sound quality lives up to the Sennheiser brand.

    Great headphone purchase

    These headphones performed as advertised. They were easy to set up with analog and optical connections. Unfortunantly my pre-amp did not have the capability of using these connections, so I used the third possibility of plugging the system into the headphone jack. My only warning about optical is that you must be able to change the setting on your optical out to PCM stereo. They will not work if left in digital surround. However the manual does state that fact. I wear hearing aids and these are perfect for me fitting over the entire ear very comfortably. Easy to operate the volume and surround functions after just a few minutes of acclimation to the unit. Great buy for me.

    Is totally amazing. My husband loves them wears them around the house and everywhere to listen to a movie when he’s not sitting in front of the TV. We now have a pair for every TV set.

    These headphones blow me away. I watch almost all my tv shows, games, and movies with headphones on. Keeps me in my own world and I don't have to worry about the sound bothering someone......my wife. :) The build seems a little flimsy for the price and they are not the most comfortable, though not uncomfortable. My only real gripe is the small power button in the back. It's difficult to press for two seconds at times. All of these are minor. Overall I love the headset. Easy to hook up. Easy to use. And did I say they sound amazing? Clear, deep, and immersive. Best sounding headset I've bought. If sound is important to you, it's worth the higher price tag.

    Fragile RS175 Sennheiser Earphones

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Great phones terrific sound. They're reliable and have a long run time. BUT the ear pads are way to fragile. The 3 retaining tabs that secure the pads to the earphone are plastic and break very easily. What's even worse, although Sennheiser claims to sell replacement pads it's impossible to get them!! No one carries them and the international site really can't take an order even though they appear to accept an order. Added to all the above, I bought two (2) of these so I'm really in a "fix". I guess I'll tape the pads on and when friends ask about that I'll relate the reason. It's really too bad as these could be really outstanding earphones. I guess the vaunted German quality is not all it's thought to be.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
