Digital camera reviews of Sennheiser RS120 926 MHz Wireless RF Headphones with Charging Cradle
Digital camera Review: A little more than I expected
Summary: 5 Stars
Doing a excellent job, as advertised. Can't find any faults at this point. Items purchased on Amazon have been OK by me.Digital camera Review: A little whiney
Summary: 3 Stars
I usually don't get more than about 10 feet from the base station, but sometimes I get some high-pitched whining noise, very annoying. There's nothing I can do to make it stop, except take off the headphones. Which pretty much defeats the purpose of having headphones, don't you think? Otherwise, when that whine isn't present, I enjoy using them.Digital camera Review: A reasonable value with decent performance. Great for late nite TV.
Summary: 3 Stars
I live in a retirement community and after 8PM, it has the sound of a graveyard. No noise is allowed. And one of my neighbors has complained about some of my music. He told me to stand in the street between his house and mine, and if I could hear my TV or stereo, it was too loud.
He likes telling me off since I'm a General and he's a Navy Master Chief (we are both retired.) And so I ordered these headphones to mollify the Master Chief.
Well, it does exactly that. And they aren't too uncomfortable considering it's Florida and somewhat hot in summer. So I don't use them during the day. If I sit in front of the Stereo or TV, I get excellent reception.
If I wander about the house, I either get no reception or poor reception at times with static and noise. You have to adjust the Radio Frequency (RF) tuner to eliminate ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) and other interferences, kind of like you would adjust a military communications radio, a wide-band or VHF radio, or one of those Citizen's band radios (I think it functions like a squelch knob.) In modern radios, the squelch knob is gone, so why not on these headphones. I only wish the RF tuner would stay tuned, but I seem to have to adjust it with each wearing.
All in all, I think I got what I paid for, and the Master Chief has begun to complain about other things. Oh well, someday I'll sick a Sargent Major on him who will teach him proper military etiquette. In the meantime, I will wear the headphones.
Digital camera Review: A review
Summary: 4 Stars
Received the product sooner thanexpected. Installation was easy. Works well. I was a little dissapointed at the sound coming from of the unit. I guess I expected it to be better than the sound from my TV. It is not. Would I buy it now that I have some experience with it? - Yes.Digital camera Review: A shockingly bad design...
Summary: 1 Stars
I read the positive reviews for this product and made my purchase based on those reviews. But this is a poorly designed product. The overall look and feel of it is fine, but there is an "auto-shutoff" feature that is incredibly annoying. I use this product at my computer, and if the sound turns off for a minute (or if the sound becomes low, like you've turned down the volume so that the music is playing softly) the transmitter automatically turns off and you're greeted with a din of static into your ears at full volume. There appears to be no away around this. And, as others commented on, there is constantly a hiss in the background. Was this product ever tested? And what philistine thought the auto shut-off feature was a good idea? Not worth your money. If I had to buy again, I'd get one with cables.
