RS 195-U Wireless Headset, Digital Technology, Black

I have to say I have other Sennheiser Products. A cheap light head set for the computer, and also an RS180 set, which are about ten years old and going strong. So I brought the RS195 on the strenth of my experence. I will admit my hearing is not good and my pride is not helping. My lovley daughter complained about the volume I had the TV at so these have worked. I now can under stand speach and music with out the subtitles, and the balance ajusts perfectly. Also the hearing ajustment bit which I don't truly understand but it works. The only thing for me is the ajustment on my head, but I will get that right and comfortable. Great Headphones for me, my hearing loss is about 50/10% and I have to wear aids, most of the time. But not with this setup. I have opitical out puts on my TV/DVD/BT Box so I have the best quality I can manage, and I can switch to the analog setting and notice the drop in quality, in fact its quite dramatic. The amazing thing for me is being able to hear all the sound track on a film, and injoy the sound of the music. I am looking forward to the proms this year, and also find Sky arts a joy. So I am a very satified person. I have tryed to think of a minus point but only come up with the fit on my silly head, and having to mind earrings, so I'm vain at my age!!! PS read the instructions on line at the Sinnheiser web site, it explaines the hearing ajustment.

Before I purchased this Sennheiser I had the HDR175 for about 5 years which was good and then I notice they had been updated to the HDR195 so I thought I’d give them a try having read all the comments. From the day I used them I’ve never looked back. Before these headphones I had a constant battle with my beloved wife on the volume of the T.V. I wonted it up she wonted down, some of you will understand what I mean. My wife s hearing is the equivalent to 20 20 vision mine at most 15 15 if that's a scale you get the gist. It’s very easy to set them up just follow the instruction and bob’s your uncle and you ready to go. The only criticism I have the ear pad cushions which do a great job disintegrated after about a couple of years meaning you have to get them replaced, no bid deal, replacement Ear Pads Cushions for Sennheiser HDR RS195 RS195 RS195. £19.66 So there you go great hearing experience and marriage saver and she who must be obeyed agrees.

Bought this product a couple of years ago for my music and found it to be first class regarding quality of reproduction - I hear things I've never heard before. The 1 downside to these phones is the transmission range, which frankly, for the cost, is POOR. Given IDENTICAL conditions within my house, an old pair of £15 Panasonic phones out-performs these Sennheisers hands down - hard to believe, but absolutely true!! Shame on you Sennheiser for this. Later however, needing a replacement set of phones for my TV, I have to admit that I turned to what I know - another set of RS195s. After all, one doesn't stray far from the TV so poor transmission range isn't an issue. These are costly but I would recommend them for good sound, tone adjustments, comfort of fit, and general build quality, and are perfect providing you stay close to the sound source

This is is the second one I have bought,the first one I got was eight years ago. I was delighted with that,better than blue tooth! . When I connected this one to my tv, I was pleased to find a few improvements namely clarity and ease of use.

Pieces of plastic coating have peeled of the ear pads, caused a problem by entering my ear. Found aftermarket leather replacements, but now the headband is peeling. Sonically really good, but construction cheap and nasty. Cannot recommend and a shock as not expecting a poor quality built Sennheiser product.

This headphone set is great for listening to the TV, especially when trying to hear US TV programs with actors drawling behind background music. The cups are larger than on my previous Sennheiser set (HDR 170) and fit much better. I am hoping that Sennheiser have used improved material on the ear pads and headband pads, as the HDR 170 pads flaked badly and I was on the second set before purchasing this higher spec. headphone set. I cannot comment on the efficiency of the volume control, as I connect the headphones to the TV via my amplifier. One of the good features of this set, is that with source sound on, once you lift the headphones off the transmitter, it auto-starts. Delighted with the upgrade.

We already have the same set for our lounge 49 inch Sony TV. This purchase is for my bedroom, where I have a 43 inch. Sony TV. (to watch my Sky Q, and soccer!). They are v. comfortable, with leather wrap around pads. Off charge they last for hours. Plug them into the optical outlet at the back of your smart TV. You can adjust the sound on the phones (or remote). If one of you has the slightest hearing impairment, they can use these super phones, whilst a partner/ husband/wife etc can listen via the tinny TV speakers, or best still a good soundbar, like the Sonos playbar/ soundbar (600pounds well spent - you will feel that you are at Old Trafford, or at the Grand Prix.They are guar. for 2yrs, but will last10! enjoy!!!

My wife did tons of research and told me these were the ones for me - specifically for people who wear hearing aids. I’ve found that music on the tv is really good, but normal speech is average. I can now watch films without subtitles, so they do the job they were brought for. But, having heard how good music sounded I was a little disappointed in voice sound. I can hear ok, but expected more for a very expensive product.
