Wonderful top-of-the-line wireless headphone that's great for both high fidelity music listening and TV or movie watching, the Sennheiser RS 180 uses proprietary KLEER digital wireless scheme to provide very high quality and noise-free audio transmission wirelessly from just about any audio source. Naturally, we know the job is only half-done with a seamless wireless link so Sennheiser Electronics finishes it up with amazing sound quality performance from these headphones. The RS 180 are an open-back earcup construction to get the very best quality audio reproduction possible; the open-back earcup design is vented meaning you can still hear what's going around you provided you're not turned up too loud. The RS 180 is a true open-back headphone; when watching TV or movies turn off your TV's main speakers to avoid "latency", an audio phenomenon in which the headphones are working correctly, but you're hearing two audio sources at slightly different times. Amongst the best-performing wireless headphones in the industry and an easy HeadRoom recommendation for quality wireless seekers.
The included RS 180 slim-profile base station looks pretty cool and doubles as the headphone charging bay. It provides a proprietary Auto-Leveling Control that tries to keep the audio at a similar dynamic volume level for all program material -- a VERY handy feature for controlling the booming commercials screeching between your favorite shows. This Sennheiser auto-compression technology also helps with speech intelligibility and clarity of dialogue as well. Also features balance control for right/left volume adjustment. The open back design puts you in the action by delivering the most natural sounding private wireless audio experience possible. It even includes a balance control for the ultimate in listening experience customization. The RS 180 luxurious velour earpads and headband cushions provide exceptional comfort for hours on end. The system will transmit up to about 120 feet on 2.4-2.8gHz, (smartly 'auto-selecting' the transmission channel for best sound quality) and running for about 24 hours on each full charge. A 2 year free manufacturer's warranty remains standard on Sennheiser headphones only when purchased from true authorized dealers -- like HeadRoom!
