Amazon.com Product Description
The Sennheiser RS 140 Wireless Balanced Headphones use a switchable dynamic compression system for excellent sound accuracy and balance control for optimum right/left volume adjustment. The adjustable high output level can compensate for minor hearing loss, and the auto-tuning mechanism with memory function finds crisp, clear music. The self-learning automatic level control provides optimum signal reception. Power comes from NiMH batteries that are recharged by simply putting the headphones on their transmitter base that can be mounted to a wall. A charge lasts for 23 hours. The RS 140 is backed by a two-year warranty.
RS 140 Headphones (2008-11-16)
As an avid work-out enthusiast in my garage gym I thought I would try wireless headphones so I could listen to music or watch movies while I exercised, which spares my family the sound of loud music coming from the garage and enables me to hear all the sounds over the noise of a teadmill. Thus far the RS140's have performed admirably without any glitches. They sound OK though as an audiophile I could wish for a higher end performance. But for the money, getting wireless capability with what is at the least quite decent sound works for me.
Best I've tried. (2008-11-09)
I tried the RS-130's, but didn't like the open-air design, since I was trying to shut out some of the machinery noise in my shop. I also tried the SoundOn ones from Costco.com, but their range and battery life were terrible. The range of these is excellent. I can get clear reception even in adjacent buildings as long as I stay clear of large metal objects. The farthest point is about 160' away, through several walls! The sound isn't as good as some headphones I've tried, but it's good enough to keep. I mostly listen to talk radio through the internet, so the compression feature actually makes the spoken words easier to understand, however, it makes music sound like crap, so I turn it off for music. Definitely a good buy for the price.

I just got these headphones a week back.I am very happy with it.I would recommend it any one.
Very disappointing (2008-10-09)
Most reviews of wireless headphones I've read say that a little "fuzz" is in every brand. This set seemed the most promising, but it was extremely disappointing. The main reason for purchasing this set was to be able to work in my kitchen and office, each one room away from the source. I had to turn my head and/or switch channels constantly in an attempt to get good reception. When I got a clear signal, the sound was good, but even then it wasn't $130+ worth of good.
RS-140 (2008-10-03)
I was pleased from the very start with my purchase of the RS-140 wireless headset. I have a slight hearing impairment at higher frequencies due to turbine engines. I learned very quickly the first time I used the RS-140 that I was missing a lot of sounds such as cricket and birds as well as in music. Chamber music is a whole new world for me since using this product. I recommend the RS-140 to anyone that may have a slight hearing loss.
