    Easy to set up. I'm not sure if I had interference in my living room but they had a bit of static.

      Hi Bags, Make sure use the wireless headphone system is away from electrical appliances capable of
      generating electromagnetic fields. The transmitter should be placed away from on a metal instrument. For more tips on how to get a better reception, check out this page: https://docs.sony.com/release//Manual_4691893111.pdf

    I bought these Sony headphones to replace my six year old Sony headphones that would no longer hold a charge longer than 2 hours. After charging the phones for about seven hours, I used them for two hours with no problems. The sound was clear and there wasn't any static. The buttons are in different positions then my previous headphones so that will take a little getting used to. I guess my only complaint is the headphone jack which is 3.5mm and my older 5.1 surround sound receiver takes 1/4 inch jack. I had to rummage around in a junk drawer to find a converter. haha

    We had one before. We spent all afternoon on the phone with Sony and Samsung. They kept sending us back and forth. So frustrating they couldn’t help us to get it to work. I’ll take it back and see if the Best Buy folks can help us. Just don’t think it should be this hard.

    We got these for my husband whose hearing was affected in Vietnam. He can hear, but outside noise makes it difficult for him to hear the words, so we bought him these to hear the TV better. They were a mess of static and actually made it worse to hear anything on the TV

    I purchased these Sony - RF995RK Wireless Over-the-Ear Headphones to use while on my treadmill. They worked fine for the first 10 minutes, but then the sound would mute and I would have to restart whatever I was listening to.

    The battery on these headphones lasted about 14 months and now will not take a charge. And a replacement battery is about $60. Also, it seems as if Sony has outsourced any future support and parts for this item.

    This product does not live to[ to the Sony standards. I even contacted Them directly and their tech could not improve the performance or stop the moments of silence on this product. I wish I had never bought it. Can it be returned?

    Works with my Sony tv but the sound is very low quality. I only use it late at night if everyone is sleeping so I don’t wake anyone. But I prefer my Beats plug in headphones.
