Got this to use while on my treadmill. I can listen to the TV- reduce out the treadmill noise and not disturb others with my volume. Works perfect. The 50' to 70' range lets me stop for breaks away from the TV without missing anything. The set is always charged. It took only a minute to connect and plug in. I did have to play around with the exact position on my head for max comfort, but I found it quickly. I love this product. Wish I'd found it sooner. As always, Amazon had the price, fast shipping and the best return policy out there.

Great sound quality, won't stay on my head if I move around or lean over which is a real irritation.

They don't interfere with my (behind the ear) hearing aids like my old ones from Radio Shack did.

I like the charging cradle, it is very easy to get the headphones lined up on it so that they charge.

I had some difficulty to get them to recognize the output from my TV. I finally connected them to my laptop (which has an adjustable volume output) and they recognized that at once, then I was able to move them back to the TV and they worked OK.

Occasionally caused the VCR to go blank until I moved the transmitter to the other side of the TV.

Now if I could just figure out how to keep them from falling off they would be perfect!

If you consider that this product is wireless and not compare it to a connected headphone than it is quite nice. The hardest part to adapting to wireless is tuning. If you want to listen to radio (AM or FM) or a TV, the tuning can be very hard because just moving the dial a trivial amount will bring in another station but once you finally "find it" the sound is excellent. There are occasions when you may turn in a certain direction and briefly lose the signal but it is not bothersome compared to the convience of wireless. The signal travels throughout my home and yard with no problem but I have not tried any further. All in all, a very good product.

The Sennheiser RS-120 wireless headphones have great sound. You will hear other people mention the hiss that is inherent in most wireless headphones however I have found this is minimal with the RS-120. It also depends on the station/channel that you are listening to. The surround sound is awesome that comes thru the headphones. You can hear everything much clearer with these headphones than without them. To me that is great listening. The only drawback I have is the comfort to the ears after an hour of listening.

This is an outstanding product!!! The sound is marvelous, the convenience and comfort great. The item didn't come with instructions and, after much e-mailing back and forth with the seller, finally connected with a techie at Sennheiser who led me thru the connection and set-up. The 'instructions' at the Sennheiser website are woefully inadequate but I just couldn't get that out of the seller -- was left to believe that there was more but, apparently, the seller wasn't aware that the website was lacking.

After talking to the technical person (who admitted that he spent much of his day helping people set up these devices), everything worked out great!! You'd think Sennheiser would update their instructions and let the technical person do other things!!!!

These headphones are my second Sennheiser product, and both are excellent quality.

The sound is very good, and I am using the wireless headphones some days for more than 8 (eight) hours, and they are still comfortable on the end of the day.
At first I connected the transmitter to a radio, that drives my computer speakers, and I heard only a lot of humming, than I remember in different reviews
was mentioned to have the volume all the way up for the input to the transmitter, and so I connected it directly to the computer sound (because I was suspicious of that radio).
This solved the problem and I heard very good sound without any humming at all, even at all different levels of volume. I can even go outside the house to the end of the Yard ( through many walls and over 100 feet distance) and it still works great.

I have a set of DVDs (Rumpole of the Baily, from England), I did not understand any of the words spoken by the actors, and invited a friend to listen with me, and the same result, he could not understand what it was all about. Now with these RS120 headphones by Sennheiser, I can understand everything very clearly, and do not miss anything any more.

I would recommend this set to anyone, the battery live seams to be endless.

Our living room is right above our young daughters bedroom and we had been watching movies at low volume and with subtitles to keep from waking her. We don't watch any television, just occasional movies so it was not a large problem. I finally decided to remedy the situation and after some research, decided to get two pairs of Sennheiser RS-120 wireless headphones. When I went to purchase them, I saw that there were remanufactured ones available and given my success with remanufactured products in the past, and the discount they afford ($49 at Amazon), I decided to buy them.
This product works exactly as I had hoped. The sound is great, they are comfortable, lightweight and very convenient. My wife has mentioned that with her glasses on the headphones press against the arms of her glasses a bit, but overall she is very happy with them. The set-up couldn't have been easier, I got two splitters for the RCA jacks in the back of the TV to run two headphones at a time, pluged the electical cords in, plugged the headphones into the splitter jacks, put one pair on channel 1 and the other on channel 2 and started watching TV. The range seems good, we watch TV from about 15 feet, but on trips to the kitchen with them on the sound stays the same in the 35 feet we travel.

I have bought this before also but this time around I tried a refurbished one and was pleasantly surprised that it looks brand new and works great...

I used it all over my apartment and it works just fine... no back ground hiss unless the volume is at MAX.

for the price I think it is best possible RF Headphones you can find.

I purchased these headphones to listen to music and radio while at work. They are great!! The old ones I had wouldn't send the signal past my workstation. These transmit while walking through the whole building!! Couldn't ask for better at the price.

I bought my 120's new, several years ago, before they added the capability of switching channels. I do have tuning capacity and volume capacity. I use these to listen to music off my computer when I'm wandering around the house, but they will work with any device having a standard 3.5mm jack. The sound quality is excellent, and the battery life is great. The only problem I could cite is that, as you get further from the base unit, or the more "stuff" between you and the base unit, the more likely you are to encounter "dead zones," where the signal will get weak. Sometimes a little tuning adjustment is needed, or you just have to shift your position a little. This is not a real issue for me, and these are my go-to headphones when I want to drown out external noises.
