Malcolm, Skipton

+ Good piece of it. I went for these, rather than the next model down, because they cover the ears. A wise choice I think.

Jeff, Blackwood

+ These headphones do exactly the job I intended. HiFi in Living room, I can sit in the conservantry and listen to my music without disturbing anyone else. Just to try them out I kept them on and put the bin out, no drop in sound quality from out side the house.

John-paul, Lincoln

+ Fantastic value for the money, no radio wave interference like you get from other cordless headphones, & the sound quality is great. The long range frequency means you are not limited as to how far you can move about with them on, your free to move all over the house & still listen to your sounds. I also the fact that they charge so qwickly as well.

- Hmmmmm???

+ The price was the best I found, it's great to finally be free of wires and the rechargable batteries have never let me down.

- The sound quality is good but there is definitely a little bit of an FM radio sound there...For the money I don't think you're going to do any better.

Rab, Cumbernauld

+ Great sound quality at a fair price, headset is comfortable even after several hours, low power usage means batteries never seem to need charged.

- Two niggles:
Autotune (Search) button is too close to - and feels the same as - the Volume control. The Automatic On function needs a certain signal/volume level to spark up the system - quiet intros are missed.

Henry, Bristol

+ Easy to use, and great build quality. Sounds good too. What more do you want from a pair of wireless head phones?

- In an office enviroment, you should be aware there are only 3 channels. That means as soon as someone else copies you and gets 1 too, only one other person can before the air waves are full.

Jon, Telford

+ Headphones are light and very comfortable to wear. The sound quality is as good as I expected, particularly in the room where I mainly intend to use them.

- A little interference/sound quality drop when I wore them downstairs, but I will try moving the sender unit further away from electrical cabling so help improve its transmission. This is a recommendation anyway in the manual.

Roger, Chichester , “Skip adverts, when viewing!!”

+ Wireless headphones are an easy and excellent way of not disturbing others yet having the freedom to wander around. They only work if the set-up is easy with the various channels etc. The set-up of these headphones is brilliant and the end product very good. The only downside is that one's ears get hot and sticky after a while!!!

- None really, though the "base station unit" does take up quite a bit of room but it is worth remembering that there are screw holes so that the unit can be hung off furniture, for instance.

+ No wires to get caught.
SRS Surround sound.
Good range (over 10m, through several walls).

- Can become uncomfortable to wear for very long periods of tine (over two or three hours).
Annoying beeping sound if no audio signal is detected for a few minutes.
Occassional static, especially when at relatively high distances from the receiver.

Lorraine, Edinburgh

+ Bought these headphones for my dad who watches a lot of tv during the night whilst in bed, they are very comfortable to wear even whilst lying down and he found them easy to use. Charging them is also very easy and the battery seems to last a while. They are quite light weight. Would definitely recommend!

- Not really a huge problem for us but they could maybe do with a little more sound proofing.
