Digital camera reviews of Koss HB60 Infrared Clip-On Wireless Headphones
Digital camera Review: "Wireless" - Well, technically, yes.
Summary: 2 Stars
I have a severe hearing problem and I use special "ear hooks", rather than headphones, that work with my hearing aids. I used to have a wireless setup that replaced the headphones with a receiver that you plugged your own headphones into. This worked great - I could even go outside my house and still get reception because these used a Radio Frequency (RF) signal. Unfortunately, and after many years, they bit the dust.
I did a lot of searching and finally found the Koss HB60. In my excitement at finding a replacement, I didn't think about the fact that these used an Infra-Red (IR) signal. The difference is frustrating.
When they say that IR is line-of-site, they ain't kidding. Wander too much to the right or left, go behind a door, turn your back on the transmitter, or slip the receiver into a pocket and you can kiss the signal goodbye - even standing within the tiny range (20-30ft.) of the receiver.
You might as well be connected with a wire, after all.
I know that this all is just the way it is with IR, and I suppose they work as they should within the confines set by IR.
My suggestion: stick with RF, if you can. I'm still searching for that perfect replacement.
