Sennheiser RS 180 Digital Wireless Headphone System Review
This wireless headphones review is on the Sennheiser RS 180. Its full product name includes Digital Wireless Headphone System with Automatic Level Control and Adjustable Balance Control. Sennheiser has been a trusted name over the past few decades when it comes to audio and music equipment used in entertainment production sets. In the last decade, Sennheiser headphones for home and work use have become available as well.
My overall rating: 
Full Product Description
The Sennheiser RS 180 is a digital wireless headphone with open circumaural design. The circumaural type had been initially used for music recording studios, sets, and shows. Items with this description mean they are able to fully encompass the ears.
The digital wireless headphones use Kleer’s audio transmission. Kleer is also another industry leader when it comes to audio technology. It uses uncompressed audio transmission which is recommended by digital experts.
This Sennheiser model uses dynamic headphones which function similarly as two mini speakers. These feature audio reproduction which is clear and detailed. Audio level and balance can be adjusted with automatic controls for that maximum or optimum audio experience.
It comes with a multipurpose transmitter which also functions as a dock and as a charger. The transmitter is also used for multi receiver transmission which allows up to four people to listen to the same music source.
The RS 180 Sennheiser measures 7 x 9 x 9.1 inches and weighs 1.2 pounds. Purchasing the product comes with 2 AAA batteries and is currently available over Amazon at $279.00. That’s more than 28% off from the original price of $389.95.
The Good:
- The use of Kleer’s audio technology on the RS 180 makes it possible to provide excellent stereo sound.
- Radio frequency or RF transmission technology also applied on this item makes advanced music and audio functionality readily available for everyday use.
- Automatic level control allows the user to change the volume, bass, and even power which can be conveniently done without having to remove the headphones.
- Those who have purchased earlier models of Sennheiser wireless headphones can best compare the difference between analog and digital technology even in headphones. The clear sound with no static background noise is evident in this unit. The item is also best used with other HD or high definition technology devices such as television and other home entertainment sets.
The Bad:
- The base or docking station (multipurpose transmitter) only has a standard jack and does not have any optical audio input capacity.
- May not be aesthetically a choice for those who look at design when choosing items to buy.
The Sennheiser RS 180 is a new generation wireless headphone. Everything else is being transformed into digital technology. This includes equipments such as the television, video and audio players, speakers, computers, mobile phones, and many other devices. This headphone is no exception to the digital bandwagon.
Let this wireless headphones review be concluded with a recommendation. Anyone who wants a complete digital experience in home and personal entertainment should purchase this product.
