Sennheiser RS180 Wireless Headphone Review

[DJHey20]

Nice video. I've been doing my research on finding a great pair of wireless headphones and have heard good things about Senhizer's wireless headphones.

Can you tell me if these wireless headphones will work with I-pod Nanos? I have the6th generation at the moment.

Thanks.

[DAngeloG12395]

can you plug these headpghohones directly into a 3.5mm jack?

just for general use with my iphone when i am on the bus and stuff

Hi mate,

I had the Sennheiser RS120. And now I bought the RS180. But I noticed that with RS120, in certain rooms of the house, behind walls etc., when the signal was weaker, never cut the sound completely, just made a little noise.

With RS180, so there is a slight loss of signal, it cuts through the sound, which makes their use a little annoying. Why this difference? When the RS180 cost three times more expensive than the RS120?

:/

[TheOrangeMyst]

I think it has to do with the type of frequency the headset uses. the rs120 uses the 926 mhz while the rs170 uses the 2.4 ghz. I think 900's generally are able to permeate walls better then 2.4's.

[TekBeatTV]

@freeworld789 You should be able to but the station will still need to be connected to your computer and you will need the connection ports as well. Hope this helps!

[Donatello97]

So the RS170's fix the sound leackage problem since they're closed design, but i'm guessing they don't sound quite as good as the RS180's. But what I'm really interested in 'wireless aside', is the simulated Surround sound feature for gaming....Just curious how it sounds since you never mentioned it in you review? Would love to use surround for Wii gaming. ;)

[TekBeatTV]

@Donatello97 The surround sound feature is pretty good actually. With regards to the sealed nature of the headphones, it really depends on preference. I personally tend to like sealed versus open headphones. Hope this helps!

[44445au]

What are better rs 170 or 180 please reply Thank you! Tell me wich version! Thanks

[TekBeatTV]

@44445au The RS170's are sealed while the RS180's are open. The RS170's also have a shorter effective range. Hope this helps!

[44445au]

@TekBeatTV By sealed and open what do you mean? sorry im a noob :[

[TekBeatTV]

@44445au Sealed versus not essentially is letting you know if the headphones themselves seal around the ears (closing out ambient sound) or more open allowing airflow and ambient noise to seap in. Hope this helps!

[shikakahh]

@TekBeatTV what does open ended exactly means? and how can people hear what your listening? Nice review btw!

[TekBeatTV]

@shikakahh Yea essentially they will be able to hear the music or audio you will be playing on the headphones. Hope this helps and thanks! :)

[shadowsmountin]

Hey man nice review it was really informative thanks for posting it!

[TekBeatTV]

@shadowsmountin No problem man, glad you like it :)

[JNelsonTeixeira]

Hello, good review. Can you tell me if they have 5.1 on movies and gaming?? Thanks

[TekBeatTV]

@JNelsonTeixeira They do have gaming headphones, however not sure about the 5.1. Hope this helps!

[misiobysio]

thanks so much! I finally know that it works under Mac OSX, do I need any adaptor?

[TekBeatTV]

@misiobysio No adapter really needed all should be included in the box. Hope this helps!

[pabsw]

aren't they supposed to be light? I mean if they were reassuringly heavy you'd end up resting your head on your lap?

[TekBeatTV]

@pabsw I do believe they were meant to be light however, I was really hoping they would have felt more durable. Hope that helps clarify things!

[yassinyou]

Hello! How di I connect it to my ps3?

[TekBeatTV]

@yassinyou They should have the directions in the manual, sorry I cannot help more as I cannot recall the exact steps. Sorry I could not help more!

[TheJayef]

do they sound as nice as beats?

[TekBeatTV]

@TheJayef They sound good, would I say better? Not so much I would say they are differently tuned (not leaning towards the bass but more neutral). Hope this helps!

[TheMusicandlyricz]

i brought this headphone awhile ago and it is awesome i mean it doesn't feel like they're wireless at all...it sort of feels like the HD600 series if you ever try them before.

Again if you're going for high end wireless headphones this is probly the best choice you can get for it's price and sure you could try RS170/160 but the sound quaitly are hells different i mean you can hear the difference very quickly once you tried them on.

[TekBeatTV]

@TheMusicandlyricz Nice, glad you enjoy them! :)

[fabioadias]

Wireless pants!!!!! EVERYTHING WIRELESS!

Awesome review... I should get a wireless headset someday... sounds cool.

They should use rechargeable batteries instead. Once again, awesome review.

[TekBeatTV]

@fabioadias haha thanks man, and the batteries are rechargeable these just do not have lithium ion ones :(.

[mohd4325]

bit confused here, if the headphones charge on the base, what are the batteries in each ear for?

[TekBeatTV]

@mohd4325 Those batteries are the rechargeable ones. It does not have a built in lithium ion battery. Hope this helps!

[MacintoshUser1986]

Nice, I would love a pair of those for my Xbox 360! Giveaway? ;)

Good review as always Wil. 

[TekBeatTV]

@MacintoshUser1986 Haha I would love to, but I cannot :(. As always thanks for the support man!

[TDHReviews]

You can hook these up and use them as wireless headphones for a ipod right?

[TekBeatTV]

@TDHReviews Hmmm that I am unsure, theoretically I do not see why not as long as you have them powered (the wireless base) and the 3.5mm jack plugged into the iPod.

[TDHReviews]

@TekBeatTV COol i just bought some wireless sonys like this i hope when they get here it will work like this one

[ZeTutorials]

[shawn963741]

@legoman6000 are they realy $329 you can buy a set of beats for that much

[legoman6000]

@shawn963741 I have beats :)

[TekBeatTV]

@legoman6000 Nice!

[TekBeatTV]

@shawn963741 You can get them on the web for cheaper. That is just the retail price. Hope this helps!

[TekBeatTV]

@legoman6000 Yea they are plasticy and because they are open having other people hear is not that great :(.

[techdude6693]

wow they look great! kinda out of my budget though :P

[TekBeatTV]
