Excellent

Very good sounding headphones. 3D logic is very balanced, not overpowering or sounding artificial. Bass boost has a very good balance without sounding boomy. There is absolutely no hiss during quiet passages, during music or movies. RS 170 is great for watching TV or movies.

I'm using these to listen to our TV; they are connected to the headphone out. I bought them to replace my failed Sony MDR-RF4000K, but I'm not too sure if it was worth it. Compared to Sony, I can't really say there is *any* improvement, maybe only when playing GT5 - Sony had a very weird problem...
Pros:
  • Sound fairly decent
Cons:
  • Cut out when input volume is low
  • cups are too shallow for my ears, manual switch on

Good and Bad

Great sound quality but the buttons on the headset are very difficult (virtually impossible) to use. In addition, the buttons on the control button can't be pressed with one hand - must use one hand to hold the base while the other presses the button.
Cons:
  • Terrible ergonomics

REMARKABLE

These are the finest headphones I have ever used including 'wired'Only slight negative is the very small buttons for volume etc but am getting used to using them.
