Am after some cordless headphones for using around the home.Solely for listening to the tv or music.
No specific budget,but either over the ear or ear pad types only.I've been a bit vague to allow for anything in those categories.

Sennhieser RS180 i own a pair they are brilliant, you can pick them up from www.richersounds.com for £169.And i assume you mean wireless headphones.

I've got a pair of wireless Sony's which I only use whilst watching tv in bed. They do the job. You can pick them up for under £40. The sound is actually better than what the tv produces, battery life is good. Depends how much you're in to sound quality vs cost.

+1 I've got them, sound quality is excellent, comfy too.

Wireless,yes!.I've been seriously looking at Sennheisers over the past few days or so..Particularly the new RS 220 and RS 180's.I think that the former may be wasted on me though if the other models are up to the job.
Will have a look at the 160's too.
What are the ranges like in real world use?If you could give me some examples if poss,that would be great.
I would also like them to work in the garden,with the transmitter being two rooms away-40-50 foot,2 walls-1 brick...
Cheers!

I don't know the range of the new model, however mine will easily do 65-70ft through two single brick walls, whilst sitting in the garden but no more than that i think.Hope that helps

Think I'll stick to either the RS 160/180 or 220 should the price of the latter drastically drop!
The tv specific headsets are like tape transcriber headphones that I sometimes use(and hate!) at work.
Thanks for your help guys but any other thoughts,post up.

Another thumbs up for RS180s, although I also have an old set of RS140's I loved so much I bought new ear pads for them to keep them going. I use them when i mow the rear lawn- the base is in the front of the house, reception can go fuzzy if you happen to get the wrong spot but otherwise they are spot on.

Am off to Richer sounds in a few days-Will probably by getting some RS 180's...and a Phillips sound bar that's been recommended in another thread!
Cheers all 👍
