Digital camera reviews of Sony MDR-IF240RK Wireless Headphone System
Digital camera Review: As expected
Summary: 5 Stars
The Headphones work very good. As stated they work in the room with the transmitter but have to have a clear path to the transmitter. Sound ia clear and volumn is adequate.Digital camera Review: Audio Assistance
Summary: 4 Stars
As we , husband and wife, differ in required TV audio volume, we both use the unit to assist us and have the TV audio volume moderate. This way we can each choice our required volume in the head unit and enjoy clear speech and music in stereo. Excellent product at a moderate price.Digital camera Review: Avoid.

There was no scenario in which I could get these headphones not to suck. Incredibly poor reception even in direct line of site at 10'. Painful static if you so much as turn your head even slightly. A complete waste of time and money.
I got the earphones to use wile on my treadmill at night. I tried everything possible get them to work. I replaced the batteries with known good batteries (even though it comes with its own rechargeable ones - which had charged for more than 24hours before I tried using the set). I put the transmitter high on a shelf so that it could be in direct line of site to the earphones. I turned off all other lights in the room.... nothing would get me a clear, quality signal. I could maybe keep the signal slightly static free for a few seconds, but any movement of my head to the right or left immediately left my ears ringing with painful static. I really gave these things a good try, I really wanted them to work. Oh well.
Digital camera Review: Awesome

Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these headphones for my hard-of-hearing father, who wanted to listen to TV without annoying my mother.
Though the distance between my dad's chair and his TV is only about ten feet, I could hear the signal in only one of the earphones, and the hiss coming from both sides of the headset was deafening and far outweighed any audible signal from the TV. They are completely unusable for this use case.
To add insult to injury, because these headphones were purchased through an Amazon partner instead of Amazon itself, I am apparently entitled to no refund.
I am a big fan of Sony electronics and have two pairs of their MDR-7506 cans which I use for audio recording. I was disappointed to discover that they don't work and disgusted that I won't be able to return them.
