Great option for hearing-impaired
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this for my Mom, who has some hearing loss. We originally bought her TV Ears, which were effective, but not very sturdy. These have turned-out to be a great upgrade for her, and for not much more than the "Ears". We havevtwo set, one for the family room TV, and one for her bedroom, but she can also invite a friend to watch, as the headphones can be set to either work on different channels or the same. We are very pleased.

Decent Bluetooth Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They pair nicely with my iPhone and while listening to music if a phone call comes in I can take it handsfree via the built in speaker. With the iPhone I can use the volume control on the phone and/or headphones. For the TV I am connected via the audio out: i put the TV on mute and adjust the sound level with the head phones. The headphones keep my ears warm on cold winter days.

Works great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my headphones. I use them to watch tv after my wife is asleep. I had another pair years ago that didn't work well, so I was skeptical of these. However, I have been pleasantly surprised.

Less than expected
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm normally a fan of Sony products. I have two Sony Blu-ray DVD players, a Sony audio-video receiver and a digital camera. The wireless headphones have been a big let down. My GF bought me Bose wireless Bluetooth headphones for Christmas but I was big time disappointed with them; they wouldn't work with hardly any of my Bluetooth devices, including the Sony receiver, although supposedly Bluetooth enabled. I return those and bought the Sony wireless headphones, mostly to watch TV late at night so I could watch TV and not bother others. The sound quality is barely acceptable. On all channels there are noticeable clicks and breaks in the sound. I seriously thought about returning these too but I've watched a couple movies and got used to the lack of decent quality and use these only late at night when I'm tired and don't really care, so I'll probably keep them. Plus I hurt my GF's feeling once with the Bose ones and don't want to do that again. But I will add that being said, I wouldn't touch these if you want a quality product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi PropMan, thank you for taking the time to write a review. We apologize for the disappointment this has caused you. If you experiencing distorted or intermittent sound (sometimes with noise), please check out the troubleshooting steps below:
-Charge the headphones. If the power indicator is still off after charging, take the headphones to a Sony dealer.
-Use the headphones near the transmitter, or change the position of the transmitter.
-Do not place the transmitter on a metallic table.
-If you connect the transmitter to an A/V component using the headphone jack, lower the volume level on the connected A/V component within the range where the sound is not distorted.
-Change the radio frequency with the CHANNEL selector switch on the transmitter, then set to the same radio frequency with the AUTO TUNING button on the right housing of the
headphones.
I hope this helps, Dave

Overall good.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They were a little hard to set up at first (hard time finding out where to plug it into the TV). But once that was taken care of, all was good. THANKS!!!

Great for people with hearing issues!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My dad is in the beginning stages of losing his hearing from years on the job as a diesel mechanic. He hates hearing aids!! He can put these bad boys on and turn it up while allowing the volume for other viewers to remain at a normal level. These headphones were not only recommended by the Best Buy team but also online reviews were excellent! Better than Bose and Beats!!! We are all happy and able to enjoy television together!!!

EXCELLENT SOUND QUALITY AT A AFFORDABLE PRICE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had my doubts that at such cheap price - these headphones would be like the ones I returned - full of static and of limited range. What a surprise - clear with a long range away from sound source. Only complaint is after using for more than an hour - ears get hot and squashed against my head. Perhaps Sony can loosen the over-the-head strap to give less pressure?

Makes it much easier to understand what is said.

Perfect
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I replaced my older version of the Sony wireless headphones with these and was amazed at the improvement in quality. The audio is clear and crisp, the fit and finish of the device is greatly improved also. They sit nicely on the ear. I wear these while walking on my treadmill for 30-40 minutes 6 days a week, so they get used quite a bit. Music or television, the sound quality remains consistent. I'd highly recommend these headphones.

great if you don't wear glasses
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.sets up quick nd easy. Was previously using tv ears. They were uncomfortable in ears for long periods of time. Bought these to replace. Cheaper than tv ears. More comfortable. Blocks out more noise. Drawback is if you wear glasses they were not so comfortable, especially if you wear bi-focals. Tended to move glasses.

Excellent sound

Great product.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My wife bought this for me so I can watch TV while the rest of the house tries to sleep. Works great, comfortable even after a few hours of wear, and the price was good. The only problem I've noticed is it will occasionally lose connectivity and shut down. The TV volume has to be turned way up to ensure it registers input sound but still has moments when it doesn't register and shuts down.
