Sennheiser RS 185 RF HDR HEADPHONES

 

The Sennheiser RS 185 are comfortable, easy-to-use and have an improved sound over the and . Their open design enhances their sound quality, but it also makes them less versatile than the already limited use of the RS series. They're leaky, they barely...

Low latency connection. ; Good sound quality.

Poor isolation and high leakage, by design. ; Limited range and usability.

Sennheiser RS 185 Headphone Review

 

Performance Build Quality Comfort Value

I’ve auditioned a number of wireless Sennheiser models over the years and was always satisfied with the sound. Sennheiser claims their latest ’phones are better than ever, and the RS 185 is the best sounding of the twelve wireless models the company...

Sennheiser RS185

 

The Sennheiser RS185 are wireless headphones, but quite unlike the sea of wireless sets you'll see elsewhere. They don't use Bluetooth, but a bespoke RF system that offers much better range and an uncompressed audio stream.

Very comfortable ; Good sound quality ; Reliable wireless with good range

Lower frequencies could be a bit tauter

Good sound and great wireless makes this a top at-home wires-free set.

They can be as much as 23cm across at the base of the earpads and the same from the base of the earpads to the top of the headband. Each arm has 4.5cm of contraction from this point and the earpads will sit happily at half the mentioned spread. The...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Amazing!

 

- I would 100% get this, it is worth it!

- You can actually walk around your entire house and jam out to music (or whatever is playing) - Great for videogames (CSGO, Skyrim, etc.)

- If you want to use this for your computer you have to make sure you have the right optical ports. (Or get a soundcard with one)

High quality listening experience

 

I would recommend this product, the main drawing point being the individual left and right volume control, especially for one with differing hearing levels. I can listen to music in peace even in a noisy open plan office. The headphones are also very...
