Customer Reviews:

Good.......2007-06-12

It works well- no problems so far. Haven't had any problems with battery life, but we do charge it every night.

There is one thing I would watch out for:

keep in mind that it is made to fit most head sizes and doesn't necessarily fit the heads of all little old ladies.

Late night TV watching.......2007-06-08

I bougth this product to use it only at night when I'm watching the news or the days sports highlights and not have my wife nagging me about how loud I have the volume or that she is trying to sleep.

In that respect it works like a charm. And Im even finding my self reaching for it when I'm cooking and the kids have their cartoons on.

The battery charges quickly and last what I find is a long time, the reception distance is ok, but objects blocking the sender unit greatly reduce the clarity in the listening material.

good quality.......2007-05-19

i got one first and then bought a second one almost right away. the quality is very good. no noise. it works with component output as well as earphone output so you can hook it to anything. we use it 1~2 hours a night and it has been two weeks we do not need to charge the battery (the mannual says it should last 60 hours and it seems that it is true.) i guess you pay for the quality (i saw other products half the pricce with two sets of headphones on the web and dared not get them. these things you don't go cheap.)

Headphones That REALLY Work.......2007-05-14

These Headphones deserve a higher rating than five stars. We've bought, used and returned four or five other headphones that didn't meet their specs and our needs. These Headphones are so important to us that we take them with us when we go on vacation and are visiting with our kids at their house. The connectivity process is such that we've never had a problem hooking them up and using them wherever we are. But especially at home, they have more than proved their usefulness and value.

Not very good.......2007-05-13

Sound quality not very good, controls on headphones tiny and hard to operate while wearing them.Connection cord from source to transmitter too short. When I use headphones white watching TV there is a constant hiss.
