Cut-Rate Product. Lots of Good Tracks Betrayed by Poor Production
2 of 3 found this helpful OK, the music is there, for better (Paradise Theatre) or worse (Kilroy Was Here). All well and good. You either like it or you don't. My issue is with the quality of this compilation, which comes nicely packaged in a cardboard case in which the discs are stored in paper sleeves bearing the original LP artwork. There are absolutely NO liner notes, which would have been a nice way to tie all the albums together. You can find reviews online, but including a historical perspective on the band and the concepts underlying the individual albums would have been a welcome addition. This 'bare bones' approach extends to the discs themselves, which are devoid of any unique artwork (why not have used the album art on each? guess they didn't want to waste the ink). I could live with that because it's all about the music, right? Well, therein lies another big let-down, as these are in no way 're-masters'. While the tracks are 'clean' in that there's no tape hiss or other sonic anomalies, the sound lacks any depth or texture. The music is so tinny that the wonderful soaring upper-range harmonies that fans of the band adore sound like they were over-dubbed by Alvin and the Chipmunks. You KNOW there's bass and drums playing somewhere, but that's only because you've heard the tracks elsewhere. This is nothing short of blasphemy. A grand opportunity lost to deliver a great-sounding compilation of some of the band's best work that falls flat on wanting ears due to either laziness, budget or both. Yeah, the package represents a 'good' value in that you get the music promised at a nice price, but it's so lacking in other areas it makes one wonder what the heck A&M was thinking, if they were at all. Sometimes you do get what you pay for. My system: Fully re-capped & restored 1977 Marantz 2285, Rotel RC-1055 changer, Sennheiser wireless RS-160 headphones. Simple but sweet :)

Excellent Sound, Easy to Fix Deficiencies. Well Worth the Money!
I wear my set for at least two hours a day and have had this model (I'm now on my second set) for over two years now. I LOVE THEM! Overall, this is an excellent wireless headphone for the money. It's light and comfortable for long-term use (particularly if you upgrade to the velour cushions, which is highly recommended). I also recommend swapping out the factory rechargeable batteries with high mAh name-brand batteries...I listen for hours (mainly Rock, but also New Age, Jazz and R&B) and have never run out of juice! The sound quality is quite good, very accurate, with crisp highs and mids and decent bass (it's a Sennheiser, after all, so something over-driven and bass-heavy, like, say, ZZ Top's 'Mescalero' will shred them if you're not careful...that said, they can easily handle metal like Dio without issue...go figure?). These really 'sing' if you have quality components going into them (in my case, a restored 1977 Marantz 2285 and a Rotel RCC-1055 changer). The range is 'OK'. I generally sit outside on my back porch with the signal going through glass and a brick wall and I've no issues. But if I move more than 20 feet away I get signal breakups. That's not an issue based on my usage, but it might be for some. The one deficiency that others often call out is the placement of the on/off/mute button. Thankfully, this issue's easy to overcome, and no, you don't have to perform microsurgery on the headset to get there. Since the issue is, simply put, the lack of tactile sensation on the center on/off/mute button (the ones on either side toggle the volume up or down) all you need to do is place a small, round 1/8" self-stick foam cushion (like you'd buy at a hardware store for cabinet doors) on the volume buttons, which makes them very easy to differentiate from one another by touch. Problem solved WITHOUT messing with the unit's delicate innards. So, don't let those problematic design issues dissuade you from buying these. They're excellent for the money.
