Works great with our new Samsung TV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great with our new Samsung TV. Our kids are able to sleep while I watch and listen to theTV without disturbing them or drawing their attention to the TV. Other than the light emitted from the TV, no one even knows I am watching TV! Great product, great price, great listening range.

Excellent wireless headphones at this price point
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.bought these as a Christmas gift for my father, who often gets into fights with my mother over conflicting TV sounds from different rooms in a loft-style condo. We set these headphones up for him upstairs, and the sound is amazing. Set-up was extremely easy, and the headphones initialized and synched with the TV immediately. Very comfortable ear caps, sits well on the head over long periods of time, and the best part of all is, he can't hear my mom yell at him anymore to turn the TV down, or anything else for that matter. Would absolutely recommend to anyone, specifically empty-nesters with differing TV program appetites and not enough separation between them.

good head phones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought these for the wife to watch / listen to TV in the other room while I watch / listen to tv and music in the main room. They work and sound well with some noise canceling abilities. For $100, I got what I expected quality wise.

Like all but having to unplug from TV when Done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like the headphones. They are comfortable and light. The only thing I don't like is that you have to unplug from the TV to get back to TV speakers. Kind of annoying when your TV is high or against a wall or not easy to access.

Just Not for Me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While these headphones have quality sound, they are not for me. As a senior citizen I was looking for headphones to enhance the sound from our amplifier 5.1 surround system. First, the ear cushion become uncomfortable building on body heat and sweat. Second, the top of the headphone where the recharge contacts are located become painful on a bald head (I said I was a senior!). Third, if someone else is listening to the surround sound while I am using the headphones, there is a slight delay/echo that make it hard to understand the dialog. When the amplifier is on mute, the headphones are good, but then the hot ear cushion and head pain come into play. So, I have to return the headphones to the store. And, I don't need a hearing aid yet as I understand conversation, just some TV and movies when there is a poor sound quality and/or when actors do not enunciate properly. Yes, there is CC, but then I don't need headphones.

Posted .HI OvertheHill, we apologize for any inconvenience you have gone through. It's sad to hear that these headphones failed to meet your expectation and decided to return the unit. Sony takes the voice of our customers very seriously and hearing all feedback - good and bad is important to us. I've forwarded your post to the proper department for future reference. Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Dave

Good sound quality.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are very nice if you live in a noisy environment, as you can watch TV and clearly hear dialog and other elements of the program you are watching. They enable the viewer to move around the house easily (no wires!) Interference occurs only when distance is increased or walls are in the way. Very easy to install and I am not very good at things like that. Had to purchase a cable which I would not have known except for the salesperson in the store. Headphones are not very substantial or adjustable and are rather large, but deliver good sound.

Very nice Christmas gift
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have trouble sleeping through the night and I am up while My wife is asleep, These headphones allow Me to set the volume loud enough to hear without the TV volume disturbing My wife. They are also great when I go in the kitchen to get a snack I can still hear my program.

Wonderful headphones for television viewing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While we have a fantastic TV sometimes the programming does not permit for the best sound quality. We decided to try the Sony - Wireless FM Over-the-Ear Headphones. This product works wonderful. Whether the TV sound is high or low you never miss a sound. There were three choices in Best Buy for the headphiones. One higher in price and one lower. We chose the Sony since we have a Sony TV and the Sony reputation--we have not regretted it. There is also a volume adjustment on the headphone. This headphone is outstanding.

Good quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this headset for my hearing impaired mother-in-law. A nice way to let her hear the TV without blasting the audio and annoying others around her. The sound quality is pretty good, very clear. Setup is easy and flexible with both a regular audio jack or RCA options for input/output. The headset volume adjustment is easy and recharging is just a matter of dropping the headset into the cradle. If my 85 year old mother-in-law can use this headset then most anyone can.

The best
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second pair I've bought. I bought the earphones for myself to hook up to TV because I am slightly hard of hearing & this way my spouse can keep the volume of the TV where she wants it. I don' need to use these all the time to hear the TV but the sound that comes out ot them is so fantastic & so much better than my TV speakers (great stereo sound) that I find myself using them quite a bit. I bought the first pair 3 years ago & they are still working great, just like new. Decided to now buy a second pair for the bedroom TV. These may seem a little pricey but definitely worth it!

Great Listening
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife got this for me for Christmas so she does not have to listen to TV while I am watching. I also have a hearing problem and these make the sound so much clearer that I find myself using them even if she isn't in the room. We both wish we would have purchased these earlier!

Great Product!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband and I love movies and have found the music sometimes over-ride the voices. These headphones prevent that. We like them very much. They are also stereo so you may hear some sounds in one ear while an entirely differ sound can be heard in the other. It is fun!

Wireless headphones work great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased for my dad who was hard of hearing. He loved that he could turn volume as loud as he needed and that we could still hear the tv at the volume we set on television. These are so lightweight that it was not tiring for him to use for hours.

great for people hard of hearing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.these are great for people who are hard of hearing. They allow the person wearing them to turn up the volume as high as they want without blasting the TV and everyon else has their ears bleeding. They allow the wearer to leave the room and still hear the show they are watching. They also great for taking out loud background noise or people talking , they make it so you can still hear your show and others can talk on .

Life Changing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife is hearing impaired so watching TV is a difficult thing for her, since she cannot hear. She needs the TV up so loud that I get concern about the speakers. Now she smiles as she hears in stereo while I maintain a comfortable level for me. That smile is priceless.

Everything I was told it was
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent for listening (while watching) to TV when others do not want the sound up (political debates or election returns) - also lets my spouse listen at her level (almost deaf) and not be too loud for me

Best replacement choice we made
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Husband has some hearing problems and this is great for enhancing his TV experience. When characters go softer with voices it doesn't give him a problem any more hearing the comments. Added feature is that he can walk out of the room on other side of walls and still hear the audio of his program. Very comfortable on the head. Makes us feel like we a theatre surround sound setup in the house without the cost and installation. We bought 2 and are very, very satisfied with these headphones. Note: these replaced same Brand purchased @ 10 yrs ago. We really got our monies worth!!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received these headphones for Christmas to replace an older pair of Sony headphones. These headphones have a larger range, the battery lasts longer, and they are more comfortable.

Good Wireless Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones solve a problem for me. Watching TV at night when others in the house are sleeping. The headphones work well. However, I would prefer ear buds or something less bulky. The headphones get sort of hot and sweaty when you wear them for a long time. The headphones do not have much size adjustment and the earpieces do not swivel from front to back and they don't have much clamping pressure, so they tend to slip off your head if you bend over to pick something up. I wish they were more adjustable. However, despite these design limitations, the headphones are fit for purpose and work as advertised. I like them.
