Ready to get my second solid RS 160 in 8 years.
I am reconditioning my 8-year-old RS 160/HDR 160 headphones with new replacement earpads and headband cushions, while getting ready to purchase a new RS 160 before it is no longer available, in order to ensure many more years of enjoyment with this truly excellent product.
Excellent sonics; quality build; clever and flexible functionality; fantastic durability; and unsurpassed Sennheiser support for its legacy products
Like my HD414 headphones that I bought in 1975 and thoroughly enjoyed and reconditioned for decades before I finally retired them; thanks to Sennheiser's superior replacement parts business model; all great products like the RS 160 eventually must yield to an expiration date
