Experiment.I would prefer less wt, bulk, and an adjustment for head width. By fiddling with placement of the ear covering pads this can be mostly controlled. Pushing the tone button (sometimes) adds clarity. I use the RS140 exclusively for watching tv. Having said that, I agree with most objective comments by others.Sennheiser RS 140 Wireless Balanced Headphones This is where many consonants are and clarity is needed.This unit's ability to individually adjust sound level for each ear, the compression feature do help. On a hearing graph I have a steep loss slope between 3000cps and 3500cps. The closed back isolation also helps but could be better.Annoyingly, I sometimes hear something like an echo.
I would say, compare to HD 650 it has some distance, but for a wireless headphone, I believe this is the best. It does not have the expected static noise from my other wireless headphone and some of the reviews of this product from Amazon, and the sound quality is excellent. Honestly, I read some of the review about this product, and I have another less expensive wireless headphone, so I didn't expect outstanding performance for this one. However, after I receive it, I have to say it is outstanding.
I can understand the voices much better. They help a lot. I would purchase them again. I purchased these headphones to watch TV. My hearing is very poor so I have trouble understanding what is being said on the TV.
I'm protesting.Dennis, in Marysville WA I got my headphones 10 days ago, but they didn't pass the test, specifically going outdoors and working in the yard while listening to the ballgame.I had line of sight between the transmitter and the headphones, but I couldn't do more than 60 ft before the signal got choppy, and if I put my head under the car hood, or went around a house corner, I had more blank time than ballgame time.The vendor says I have to pay $18 shipping and $27 restocking fee.
We all love having the flexibility with both Balance and Volume controls. But I find if I rotate my head I can get the signal back usually.
The re-chargable batteries work a long time between charges. The audio quality is great, as expected from Sennheiser (I am happy with 2 of my Sennheiser corded headphones).
I love these. Depending on the antenna location and how many stucco walls are in the way the distance can be limited.
These are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I had one set, helped my neighbor buy one and my Dad buy one too.
I mostly use for TV, either as my wife is falling asleep so I can still listen to the TV, or to go to the garage and outside for chores while keeping an ear on my shows.
