Title: These are fantastic but I’m not retiring my 120’s.
Review: First let me say that I suffer a serious hearing loss which makes it difficult to watch television with my wife because I have to have the volume up so loud and even then I can’t hear everything. I have had two sets of sennheiser RS 120’s for a few years now and loved them. My wife wanted to get me these for Christmas this year because they were apparently capable of surround sound. Now I’m not an audiophile but I will try to point out some pro’s and con’s here.The 175’s are an over the ear fit as opposed to the 120’s being an on the ear fit. The 175’s fit much tighter which is very nice when up and moving about yet the tight fit makes it difficult to hear when my wife is speaking to me during a show which she does quite often. I’ll let you decide if that’s is a pro or a con. The 120’s were loose enough that I could hear her speak even though I still had to remove the headset to understand her. The looseness had a downside though in that if I went to the fridge for a drink or snack and bent down the headset fell off. Not so with the 175’s. Both sets have excellent sound reproduction even though the 120’s are analog. The 175’s can be digital or analog which can be decided by a switch on the back of the transmitter. You have the option of connecting to the sound source by optical cable or 3.5 jack which in my case required a y adapter converting to RCA jacks. I was amazed to find that there is a very noticeable difference between digital and analog, digital being the best by far. With the digital you don’t hear any static or interference noises in non-dialog or silent spots. At least I couldn’t hear any and my wife said in her words “this is fantastic”.sound with the 175’s:You can switch between regular stereo, low SRS, and High SRS by clicking a button on the side of the headset. This can also be controlled at the transmitter. There is a very noticeable difference between each setting. I have noticed that on low SRS the background recordings seem to be moved back and reduced in volume while the main dialog remains at regular volume. Ever had one of those instances where the main character is talking in a whisper voice, which seems to be in vogue these days, and is suddenly overrun by the background noise, which also seems to be a problem these days. Well, low SRS helps to overcome that problem for me. I can hear the dialog very clearly and if you’ve lived for a while having to constantly asked “what did he/she say?” then you can really appreciate that fact.In High SRS there is a distinct surround sound quality. I’ve never been able to experience this before due to my hearing loss so to me it is awesome. I love Paul Simons music, especially “Graceland”, “father and daughter” and “late in the evening”. I just thought I liked them before but after listening to them through the 175’s I have heard notes and instruments that I didn’t realize were there. Now I love the songs. Having discovered that I went back and watched a couple of my favorite movies and discovered background sounds that I had been missing and they add so much more to the entertainment value. Keep in mind that I have experienced all this with the 120’s also and there is a large difference.continued pros sound aside:I like that the controls are on the side of the 175 headset because I often recline when watching television and this keeps the controls from contacting anything and changing the settings unintentionally.This was a problem with the 120 sets because the controls were behind the headset.The 175 set, to me, is much more comfortable because of the padding and because possibly of the tighter fit which keeps them in place verses the loose fit of the 120 set.cons (maybe):The 175 set is only capable of employing two headsets.The 120 can employ several at one time. I’m not sure how many but certainly more than four because I have that many headsets.The 120 has an option of three channels selectable on the transmitter and the headset which means you can use more than one in a household without interfering with each other. This is the situation at my house. I have one set in the bedroom and one in the living room and we can use them separately on separate channels at the same time. My grandkids love the headsets so this settles a problem when they come to visit and want cartoons while I want news.The 175 has only one channel so this setup would probably not be possible.The 175 power button has to be held down for about three seconds to activate while the 120 has a slide switch. The 175 has a very slight delay between activation and transmitter connection. The 120 is instant. This caused a rather humorous incident early on. My wife was watching a movie on Netflix and I picked up the headset, turned it on, placed it on my head and thought I was waiting on a connection when in reality I was in a very quite point in the movie just before an explosion and massive gunfire. I was on my way to my recliner when all hell broke loose and it was so realistic I almost wet my pants and overran the recliner. It was apparently the highlight of my wife’s day. She still laughs about it. Her lack of concern about my bruised shins and ego aside…after the fact it was funny.I know this was lengthy but I hope it helps someone in my situation to make an informed decision.In short I would never had purchased the 175’s for myself due to the cost because I wouldn’t have believed they would make this much difference. Now that I’ve experienced them I would buy them in a heartbeat.Now a word about sennheiser’s customer service. I had a situation early on where I lost the optical connection with my TV. I was quick to blame the new headset simply because they were new. I sent an email to sennheiser in hopes they could find a solution before I had to send the set back. I had a return mail in about 45 minutes telling me what to do. Turns out the problem was with the television and not the sennheiser transmitter. Quick response, great customer service.

Title: 10 Years Strong – Still Going Perfectly
Review: I’ve had the Sennheiser RS 175 RF headphones for almost 10 years, and they still work just as well as the day I bought them. The sound quality has never changed — clear, balanced, and consistent every time I use them. I did have to replace the ear cushions over the years due to normal wear and tear, but replacement pads are easy to find and swap out. The wireless range is excellent; I can move freely around the house with zero interference or dropouts. These have held up to constant daily use and continue to deliver reliable, high-quality sound. Truly one of the best purchases I’ve ever made.

Title: One of my favorite electronic dad toys.
Review: StrengthsSound quality really good for wireless, the best i have heard in fact for wireless. Better than a lot of wired too, to my ears these sound wonderful. I have a lot of headphones and am into audio as well. I think the sound would suit the tastes of 90% of people. For movies these kill, got me though when my daughter was in infant 🙂 They extremely conformable with easily replaceable pads. i upgraded to the felt pads you can buy the 185 pads and they work fine. They are better than the stock ones that come with these for those of us that like the feel of felt.Simply fun to listen to. Close as you will get to a 2k home theater on a budget.Really just want to cut to the chase these are fun to listen to, and i feel they sound wonderful for movies. I can honestly say i don’t think they could be any better for this usage.Also love having replaceable batteries. I have had this for a couple years now, and a buddy has has his a previous model for more than 10 years old (180) so i know they hold up fairly well.WeaknessesThey don’t leak sound, but the sound isolation isn’t the best as compared to some other over year phones i have tried. It isn’t bad, just don’t expect super isolation.The head band pad is not the best. Fake leather feels a little thin there too. The build is also not the most robust. I haven’t had any issues but i am also really careful with my things. I wouldn’t drop it. I’d be surprised if it could sustain a fall from 4-5 feet on a hard surface with out breaking.The price i paid for the full unit with the base station was 171. It is a buy at that price, no regrets, in fact i like the sound so much if i could find it for that price or lower i’d consider picking up a second done for work since i like it better than Bluetooth. while it isn’t quite as flexible as bluetooth since you need this station, it performs better, and there are no hiccups with either lag, or bluetooth issues like jitter etc. In fact in all the years of owning this i have never had any issue audio or otherwise. I think 270 which i see from time to time is asking way too much though they are good but let’s not be crazy. The mark up on head phones is absurd. I’d wait for a sale. For what these do they are wonderful. If you want a pair of cans for your home theater system or computer, and don’t need as much flexibility as bluetooth provides and have a scenario where audio performance is paramount, you’ll totally love these.It really is significant in terms of quality it is a rich sound, with a nice sound stage and imaging which helps for movies and games.While not perfect if I am being picky, after years of owning this i am giving it 5 starts because i still use it, and it has served me really well, and i have been totally satisfied with my purchase. In fact i used this and my Bluetooth cans more than any of the corded ones i have these days, and i have some nice ones. This sound just about as good as some of my high end cabled head phones especially for things like movies. They are particularly tuned for that. My main gripes are I would love to see 1.) more isolation, 2.) more robust build quality 3.) this quality of sound on Bluetooth if it is possible. I mean i feel like i have to treat these things like fine china which they are 🙂 I can honestly say these’d would by far be my go to head phones in all scenarios if i could get this sound quality on Bluetooth and not paying 500 dollars.Here is hoping. These have great imaging and are almost as good as open back headphones in sound stage. there is almost a surround sound nature to them, but they just sound great. If you want uncompromising high end sounds for your movies in a head phones these are the ones to get.

Review: only had these headphones for a few weeks. very impressed with the option that seduces background sounds/music when dialogue is spoken but unsure whether this applies to all program formats. headset is a little heavier and tighter on the head than my old TR160 phones. all very good ,so far.
