Sennheiser RS175 Surround Sound Wireless Headphones by Sennheiser

Product Information

These Sennheiser headphones have such clarity and definition, the experience is cinema like. Although they do not claim to have any particular frequency range, I have previously had wired Sennheisers and these sound similar. Earlier models claimed 20 - 20,000 Hz and I think these would get there too. The richness of sound is so impressive, and there's so much depth in the bottom end (20 Hz). If I can only hear to say 12 or 13 KHz, then I don't know what I'm missing out on, do I. The last time I had a hearing test, it wasn't even that good, but, the most important aspect for me is that I can now hear the TV clearly and enjoy all the shows. The volume range is enormous and would suit near deaf people I'm sure. Importantly, they do not distort if you do turn them up fairly high. The new and more responsive wireless technology delivers a clear and precise signal even when you move from one room to another. These headphones are also very user-friendly as the controls are located on the headset itself. You won't need an extra remote, just adjust the sound right there where you are. The transmitter included with this model serves multiple purposes. You can connect your headphones to it for wired sound and also use it to charge up the battery. This transmitter supports two pairs of headphones simultaneously, so you can be extra flexible and share your music with a friend.

This headphone has an ideal frequency response that is suitable for all genres of music and audio contents.

What Makes Us Different?

Coming complete with a separate wireless transmitter (TR175), the headphones (HDR175) enjoy a range around ten times further standard Bluetooth headphones. This lets you use them all around your home and even out into the garden.

Now I will describe the controlling system so that you can handle them without any hassle. How to Control RS 175 Headphones? The build quality of RS 175 is decently strong. The headband is made with a thin metal frame and is moderately flexible. And if you are a hardcore audiophile, you should not buy this as it won’t meet the standard or need you are looking for.However, before using them for the first time, you should charge the battery for at least 16 hours without any interruption to improve the battery performance.

I think you already have a massive idea about Sennheiser 175 by now. Are you confused about whether to buy it or not? If you insert a non-rechargeable battery into the compartment, it may leak during charging and damage the headphone. I watched ‘Spider-Man: Far From Home’ with it and felt like I was hanging around with Spiderman in person. Nevertheless , both of these headphones have stereo speakers. 6. Sennheiser RS 175 vs. Sharper Image OWN ZONE Wireless Rechargeable TV Headphones First things first let’s talk about the wireless transmission itself. Opting for a type of digital wireless transmission instead of the traditional Radio Frequency means that they can send a higher quality of signal and keep things even more crisp and spatially accurate whilst still maintaining the allure of being able to move from room to room. Confusingly, digital wireless transmission is considered “Line of Sight” meaning that technically the sender should be able to see the headphones. In practice though not only does Sennheiser state you can move from room to room but I’ve even tried them and had no issue, so I’m not really sure why they’ve stated it.This system needs a whole setup. So taking the transmitter and headset with you outside on a walk will look funny and awkward too. Well, it’s time to talk about the battery details as they are famous for long battery life. Battery Details

The supplied transmitter has the ability to support two pairs of headphones simultaneously. It's also flexible in terms of music sources. With both optical and analogue inputs you can connect it to all types of hi-fi and AV products, from digital AV receivers to more traditional hi-fi amps. The RS 175's digital transmission quality, which uses frequency modulation over 2.4-2.8GHz to transmit audio fed to the charging base to the headphones, is nearly flawless, and it's easy to forget you're listening to wireless headphones. The actual sound signature of the drivers is very crisp and bright, and when Bass mode is activated, quite rich and powerful in the lows, as well. The transmission strength is also solid; Sennheiser estimates the range at roughly 330 feet, which is both insanely good and very hard to confirm in New York City. I had no problem walking into different rooms of my apartment, closing the door, and receiving audio with no disruption. The signal played flawlessly through walls, which means you can expect few, if any, interruptions in your living room. Decrease the volume of the analog audio source to at least a medium level if the volume is set too high. It's also possible the problem is also with your satellite box instead. Can you try connecting the headphones using the analog (3.5mm) cable instead to test? Film dialogue was crisp through the RS 175, and with Bass mode on or off, the headphones pumped out plenty of rumble when watching modern TV and movies. Surround mode can make dialogue sound pretty unnatural, though—voices outdoors in the middle of fields got the same ambient-sounding reverb as if they were in a room. I recommend leaving the Surround mode off, but there's no reason you can't test it out and see if you personally like the effect.Coming complete with a separate wireless transmitter (TR175), the RS175-U headphones enjoy a range around ten times further standard Bluetooth headphones. This lets you use them all around your home and even out into the garden. The Sennheiser RS 175 features analogue and digital audio inputs, allowing you to switch between these options easily. The box includes the HDR 175 headphones plus the TR 175 transmitter. You also get an optical and audio cable as well as a power supply adapter for the UK, two AAA rechargeable batteries and an instruction manual on CD. You’ve got high-performance travel speakers designed to withstand exposure to dust and moisture, party box systems to bring the house down at your next event, and endless wireless headsets. In case, you are looking for a headphone for studio use, then you can go for Sennheiser HD280Pro. Customer Support If you’ve ever wanted to transform your home entertainment system with a sensational next-level experience, Sennheiser has you covered. On channels and movies with a lot of sub-bass content, the RS 175 delivers plenty of depth. With bass mode on, high-bass solutions can get a little distorted at the top-end – so be careful.
