General Description

The front-row seat to your favorite concert or movie just got a lot closer. The RS 180 wireless headphone system delivers uncanny realism yet-to-be seen in a pair of wireless headphones. The entire package includes a headphone (HDR 180) and a multi-purpose transmitter (TX 180) which also functions as an 'easy-charge' cradle and docking station. The RS 180 makes movie and HDTV marathons an amazing experience thanks to the Automatic Level Control that compensates for variances in the volume of program material to enhance speech intelligibility...just set your comfortable volume level and let ALC do the rest. The RS 180 utilizes KLEER's uncompressed digital wireless audio transmission (it sounds wired!), offering a range of up to 320 feet, audiophile-grade sound and reception to four optional pairs of Sennheiser KLEER headphones. Never fuss with tuning again thanks to automatic, interference-free pairing between the headphone and transmitter. The Open-Aire speaker system 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 headphones' luxurious velour earpads and headband cushions provide exceptional comfort for hours on end. If you want a font row seat, your ticket is the RS 180.

 Great product by Sennheiser coupled with outstanding service by Headphones.com!
 
Controls are terrible9/2/2011
 My feeling the same as other reviews. The controls are the worst. A nice wheel for volume and a slide switch for on/off - also a red or green light that lets you know the headphones are on or off - so not to drain the battery. Maybe I just have not figured it out as yet, but to sit down to watch TV only to find out I have to get up again to turn on the transmitter. I just got this a few days ago, but I have had less expensive wireless phones for some time. I am considering returning it. john
 
Peculiar4/11/2011
 Easy set up. Wonderful sound. But why did you allow the controls of off/on and each volume to be so hard to access? They all FEEL the same; spaced so close together. Really! You could have put somebody on that part of the design job who would relate to the customer: how to make each control FEEL different so you wouldn’t have to take the headphone off to find the one you want -- most anybody would have done a better job. Not so sure I understand the beeping that occurs some time. I know it’s volume related, but it doesn’t always make sense why it starts beeping.
