Recently acquired these for my 40th (:-() birthday and very pleased!
Very comfortable (and adjustable) with plenty of padding on the ears.
The sound quality is excellent - particularly on vocals and bass guitar.
I'm very into Symphonic/Progressive Metal as well as Classical so good sound is a MUST!
The headphones are completeley wireless and powered by rechargeable batteries (present in the box) and there's a small wireless transmitter with a DC adaptor that stays connected to the mains. You simply use the cable to attach the transmitter to your audio source; DVD, HiFi etc and the signal is sent to the headset - really simple. You also charge the headphones, via a lead, off the transmitter unit. You get a Jack adaptor so the transmitter cable will fit every socket. Don't worry about leaving the DC adaptor connected to the mains - It only powers up (red light indicator) when it's connected to a stereo or DVD player etc that is switched ON. When you turn the audio/video appliance OFF, after a minute or so, the red light fades and the transmitter powers off - so you don't need to pull the plug out when not in use. The headphones have their own on/off button, and a volume setting that works in conjunction with the audio source.
The wireless range is excellent - even when leaving the bedroom, the sound was excellent all around the house. I even sat outside on the patio the other night at the back of the house and got a reasonable reception! And bear in mind, the stereo connected to the wireless transmitter was in a bedroom at the FRONT of the house! Yes, there was a reduced quality BUT it was still good enough to allow me the joy of the night air!
Very happy with them - Excellent for good quality music.....

I received these as a Christmas gift a few years back, and the quality was, and still is top quality. The battery lasts a long time, and I can walk around the house with them without interference.
There are 2 frequencies too, so if 1 has interference in your home, you can always switch to another. The padding provides great comfort when listening too.
All in all, a great purchase - I highly recommend them!

Like any normal person I like to spend the last hour of my day watching telly in bed. This irrates my wife some what and she constantly maons about the volume and how it keeps her awake. since i have brought these headphones my life of constant nagging has stop the headphones are easy to use and the sound is prefect. I can be next to my wife in bed and she can not hear any sound. This has been my saviour!
