Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Sound quality, battery life, and benefits of listening to what I want however loud I want too.
Cons: Makes my ears hot after 30mns or so.
Love these headphones. The sound quality, wireless signal, and battery life is great. The only setbacks were having to purchasing an adaptor for my tv and they make my head hot after about 30mns of use. The headphones also fit perfectly.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Comfort Comfort Comfort!! And super clear sound
Cons: No thumping bass like I like it
First of all, let me begin by saying that I'm no spoiled brat that just buys the hottest electronics. I'm a broke college student working to pay my way through, so it took me a long time to decide to make this purchase (I got a bonus at work haha!!) and I have not been disappointed! Additionally, this review is coming after I've had the headphones for four months.<br />Okay, well I will say I have bit of an addiction to headphones/speakers and I have some sort of sound going on while I shower, in my bedroom, a pair (headphones) for working out, travelling, and I was looking for a pair that I could go wireless while I do things around my apartment. I've tried both sets of Sony wireless headphones (the ones that hook up using bluetooth as well as the ones with a setup similar to this one) and I wasn't satisfied until I ran across these. Overall I love the sound quality and it cancels noise like no other! I can't even hear my terrible singing over the music and I don't even have to blast the music to achieve it! I've been able to pick out little things in the beats of the songs that I haven't been able to enjoy with other headphones/speakers and the ear cups make them extremely comfortable to wear for a long period of time (rather than having your ears smashed by the other flat types). They're ergonomic (I have a big head lol) and I only felt uncomfortable for the first few times I wore them and then they relaxed a bit like a pair of new shoes.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Sound, sound, sound!
Cons: Recharging/Transmitter base is a bit cheap
After much research about the Kleer wireless technology, I took a shot at these cans due to the sale of $122.99. Kicked them on a few minutes ago, set up was very easy (the packaging is a pain for $100 headphones). Put on some AC DC...WOW! Sound quality is fantastic! Whoever said that these cans don't have bass must be deaf! The bass is clean and tight, vocals are very clear and not tinny or muffled. The highs are very sharp and clean. Very, very happy with the purchase. I've tried Bose, Beats, etc., but for the price, these kick it! Buy them now before the sale ends. The only bummer is the transmitter base is kinda flimsy, but what do I expect for $122! Sennheiser does it again!

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Sound, comfort
Cons: we gave no cons
After searching the internet we decided the Sennheiser - 160 was what we were looking for. We have not been disappointed in the least, in fact wished we gotten them a lot sooner.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Sound quality, bass, value for price, comfortable, relatively easy to use, long battery life
Cons: Nothing
When I got these headphones, they sounded great. Good bass, but I wasn't careful with them. I dropped them from 10ft, and they still worked, but barely. So I received a replacement pair from Sennheiser. Very high quality headphones.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Sound quality, comfort and transmission area
Cons: to save battery life you have to turn off the headset and resync with the transmitter after turning it on
I bought over the ear because I have hearing aids. I do get some feedback from time to time, but it is not too bad. Even without the hearing aids I hear things that you don't typically hear in a normal room. There is so much ambient noise in a normal household that under normal listening you don't hear the subtle sounds of the source. Once you turn off the headset it requires you to go to the transmitter and resync it with the headset. It is only a push of a button but I typically forget and have to get up and walk across the room. However, the headset is comfortable and I can walk almost anywhere in the house and still hear the program.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: No headphone stand. No place to keep them in the RV. Love cell phone type charger.
Cons: nothing yet
We purchased this system several weeks ago with an extra set of headphones. The instructions for syncing two or more headsets was a little confusing so I called their help line. What was happening was that the volume contol on either set was controlling both. They answered immediately and gave me simple, easy to understand instructions on how to sync them properly. We full time in our RV and we like to have the volume up when we watch a movie. We have watched a dozen movies since we bought these. They are awesome. Great sound quality; good bass response, and of course seperate volume controls make these a must have for anyone that wants to keep the noise down for their neighbors.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Comfort and range
Cons: Online Manual
Purchased on sale after reading reviews on Sony and Rockfish, glad I spent the few extra dollars. No issues with the range, good sound, light and comfortable. Easy setup; though operation manual only available online. Needed different connector than one provided for this unit but fortunately had one available in my old audio/video connectors stash. Uses regular AA or rechargable AA batteries [included].

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
This is my third set of head phones I have purchased from Best Buy and I am finally satisfied. They are so comfortable I forget I have them on. I can walk around the house and no distortion. I would recommend them to anyone seeking good quality sound.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Price, sound quality, ease of use.
Cons: Squeezes your head a little bit.
From the reviews that I read, I was a little worried about the comfort of these headphones and the only complaint that I have is that they squeeze your head a little bit. Besides that, these are an awesome pair of headphones. The sound quality is superb (especially on a song that has great bass) and the ease of connectivity is even better. One of the good things about it is that there is an option for rechargeable batteries for both the transmitter and the headphones. The portability is a good feature. Definitely a great pair and I am glad I made the investment.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Sound, interchangeable with older equipment, Great wireless distance
Cons: Heavy, CD Manual, need to purchase re-chargeable batteries for transmitter
It would have been nice to have a written manual as it was a gift to our mom who has no computer. It would have been nice to have re-chargeable batteries for the transmitter since there is an adapter jack to recharge both the transmitter and headphones at the same time. Good sound, good wireless distance, but a little heavy after a while. My kudos to the folks at Best Buy Store #209 for their great help and directing us to the right jack for the older equipment.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Wireless RF performance and audio quality
Cons: Very poor tactile feel of the multi-function power control and volume adjustments
This is my third set of wireless RF headphones for use in the bedroom for my wife and I. We watch TV in the morning and at night, and listen to music on sleepless nights. The audio quality of the RS 160 is excellent, however, the controls lack any human factors for ease of use. To understand how to operate these headsets you have to read the users manual contained on the CD, as the multi-function power control is not intuitively obvious. To operate the headphone, one must remove them and directly look at the three switches (volume up, power, volume down). Otherwise, it is too easy to press the power button instead of the volume buttons. Once I installed adhesive backed, rubber pads on the volume up and volume down buttons, I was able to operate the headphone with it in place. The rubber pads allow me to feel the two volume control buttons and locate the power button in the middle. I am surprised that such a quality audio product did not include better printed material and tactile feel to the three control buttons.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight
Pros would have to be, good range,good through the wall reception,clear sound,no hissing,and comfortable.Cons? Unless your good at reading braille you have to take the headset off to find and adjust volume buttons.It comes with 4 adapters to plug in to foreign power but none to plug into the standard RCA's on your TV.(sold separately)Also,very little bass.

Sennheiser RS 160 Digital Wireless Headphone System
Pros: wireless capabilities comfort sound quality
Cons: takes a bit to charge but not too long
These headphones by Senheiser are quite comfortable, deliver excellent bass response and treble response, are an overall excellent choice in wireless headphones, especially for a home theatre system. They isolate exterior ambient noise quite well. A great value for your money!
