I wasn't expecting the world when I saw these advertised. I can't have my surround sound too loud or the neighbors will complain so I wanted something that had surround sound. Well the Sennheiser name is good in the headphone world so I went ahead and bought them. The headphones have a setting for the bass and a setting for the surround sound. The surround sound setting has two levels, moderate and full. Honestly it works pretty well. The vocals are forward so you can hear the dialogue while the ambient sound does surround you. It can be a little reverb heavy but all processed surround sound suffers from that. The headset is a bit heavy and bulky but not really to bad. You can go a whole movie without suffering from fatigue. Set up was easy, I used the digital connection since my tv had an optical port. It's a pass through so you do have to mute the volume on the tv or the receiver. It comes with a 3.5 MM port as well if you need to do analog. I haven't tested the range on the headphones but I really don't wander from the couch if I'm watching a movie. Overall I recommend these if you want to watch TV without rattling the windows and annoying the neighbors. Also if you're hard of hearing the headphones do a good job of isolating the dialogue so that would probably help. Is it a 5 star product.. no but a good solid 4 star. Read full review

These phones are clear and with sound and reception. They are a bit heavy and make my ears sweat. I was not thinking how they would work in New Orleans heat and humidity, which is even present in air conditioned homes. Live and learn.

These have excellent sound quality, they are comfortable to wear, easy to use, and easy to recharge. I use these to watch TV and because my hearing has deteriorated over the years they enable me to hear clearly without turning up the volume and adding a lot of noise to the house. I would recommend them to anyone.

I have tried several different brands and finally spent the money for these and I don’t know why I didn’t do it sooner! They are comfortable and sound great. With the different sound options you can choose from on the headphones you can get it to sound better where with others you don’t have that option. I like these so much I have purchased 3 sets. One for each room I have a tv in.

The sound quality is very good, the volume is easly controlled and the ear pads are nice and soft. It was also easy to set up. The only thing I didn't like was that it had to much tension and smashed my ears. I finally bent the fram a little and now it fit's great. This is the best one yet.

I HAVE BEEN USING A SENNHEISER RS175 IN MY LIVING ROOM FOR JUST OVER 2 YEARS AND ENJOYED THE SOUND QUALITY SO MUCH THAT I BOUGHT THIS NEW UNIT TO USE IN THE MASTER BEDROOM. I HAD BEEN USING A TV EARS PRODUCT AND DECIDED TO TRY AN OVER-THE-EAR SYSTEM. I WAS QUITE AMAZED WHEN I HEARD ALLTHE AUDIO CONTENT I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS MISSING! THE CONTROLS ARE CONVENIENT & EASY TO USE AND THE BATTERY LIFE IS EXCELLENT.

Works really well with movies, not as well with music. When playing music the sound goes in and out on the right earphone, very annoying. Tried several settings and I get the same result.
