Good headphones, bad controls !

I work on my equipment out in the driveway, my RF signal is good for 105 feet.. I took whole unit to home depot & fitted it nice into a black hanging shower soap rack...now hung eye level on shop wall. Very well built, but I will mod.

A-1 Fit; Comfortable; Great Sound Quality

China Built; Control Buttons; Difficult To Use; No Wall Mounting With It

Sennheiser RS 170 headphones offer CD-quality sound, sans wires

The $279.95 Sennheiser RS 170 is a set of wireless headphones with a base unit that doubles as a transmitter and a battery charger. One of the nicest things a reviewer can say about wireless headphones is that they don't sound like wireless headphones, and the RS 170 certainly succeeds on that...

The; is a full-size set of headphones with Kleer wireless technology that delivers CD-quality sound

The awkward placement of the controls on the right earcup may require a longer learning curve for some users; and the transmitter/charger base lacks digital inputs

Sennheiser RS 170 review: Sennheiser RS 170

The $279.95 Sennheiser RS 170 is a set of wireless headphones with a base unit that doubles as a transmitter and a battery charger. One of the nicest things a reviewer can say about wireless headphones is that they don't sound like wireless headphones, and the RS 170 certainly succeeds on that score. Connectivity is limited to just one analog input, which might be a deal breaker for some potential buyers, but the idea is that you hook up the transmitter to your TV or AV receiver, and then run your sources, like your cable box, Blu-ray player, or games, etc., through the TV or receiver. If that's what you're looking to do, the RS 170 is definitely worthy of your consideration.

The RS 170 continues Sennheiser's unchanging dedication to sonic clarity and they're well worth the price for anyone looking to grab wireless sound from a TV, AV receiver, cable box, or game console.

The Sennheiser RS 170 is a full-size set of headphones with Kleer wireless technology that delivers CD-quality sound.

The awkward placement of the controls on the right earcup may require a longer learning curve for some users; and the transmitter/charger base lacks digital inputs.

A Wireless Headset : Sennheiser RS 170 WIreless Headset

The Sennheiser RS 170 is priced at £179.99 although by shopping around you should be able to purchase this product nearer £140.   For this price you get a good quality headset with wireless capability.

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...

Sound fairly decent

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.

Terrible ergonomics

i preffered my rs120s

i like wireless hedphones and these are ok, i preffered my rs 120s also bought from richersounds though. this is due to the fact i preffered the softer 120s cup and also the 120s turned off after a bit when sound signal lost ie tv turned off.

doesnt shut off auto

Half of a solution

You sell the HDR170 wireless headphones but don't list or sell the complete RS170 system on you website. Why offer the HDR170 when a new customer needs the whole thing. Now I have to return the HDR170 and find the RS170 somewhere else.

stupid marketing
