Good low priced wireless...

The Bottom Line: Definitely a good buy if you plan on staying in the house, but if not spend a few hundred more $ on something with more transmitter power.
Sennheiser makes headphones like nobody else, hands down! The problem with these headphones is interference. If the battery is not fully charged before each use, you may hear your cordless phone (if it is also 900 mhz) and yesterday I heard my neighbors cordless phone toward the end of my 3 hour listening session (but I was outside, and far from the transmitter. And when I hit TUNE, I got my music back).
The battery does easily last 4 hours, but only if charged overnight (the book actually recommends a 14 hour charge).
As far as sound goes, the music is crystal clear and perfectly crisp. These headphones are EXCELLENT if you plan to stay within a room or two of the transmitter. If you want to be out in the driveway/garage working on the car or in the garden, and the transmitter will be a few rooms away, you will get cracks/pops/interference occasionally.
I wear these while sitting in the same or next room as the transmitter and I have no problems/complaints at all!
I am very glad to have bought these... it's very nice to be able to clean the house without disturbing the rest of the house with my music.
