Good but not great.
The sound is louder with these, at least from my tv, than other wireless fm headphones I have purchased but you do still get a noticeable hiss unless you set the volume around low to medium on the headphones and then turn up the tv or other audio source volume.
They turn off after about a minute or so of no audio being fed to them and the batteries can be charged inside the headphones via a cable that connects to the main unit.
The audio is loud enough that you can eliminate the hiss and still have loud audio and although I am fussy about hiss, you cant notice hiss when watching something unless volume is full and its a silent scene. I just turned the headphones down a bit and use the tv volume to control the audio level and that way I don't get the hiss.
They are comfortable and easy to use. The controls are inset a bit into the headphones so take a few uses to get used to, and can be a bit fiddley at first but they work and do what they should.
You can choose one of two audio channels to help combat interference. I thought I had interference as the audio would cut out and then be back on but I changed my tv audio settings to output standard audio instead of digital and it was fine so if you have a similar issue try checking the settings of whatever the base unit is plugged into.
Overall a good buy, and worth a purchase, clear audio and comfortable to wear for hours at a time. The ear pieces do make a squeak sound if you move your head a lot but thats not really an issue unless you plan to exercise or dance etc with these on.Read full review

Excellent value for money!
The headphones did not disappoint! A well-made product, which can be used without noise interference, every time you turn your head. This is not always the case with cheaper headphones.
Batteries are rechargeable with the transmitter, eliminating extra battery costs!
The headphones are comfortable and light. All in all, a good quality item.Read full review

Very good earphones for the price.
I had an earlier model of these earphones & found them to be very good for my needs. Eventually the on/off switch failed to work so I needed a new set. I found that the model I wanted had been replaced so I went for the newer model as it was very similar. It turned out to be a great choice as earphones work very well, lightweight, great sound & great value for the price. I would not hesitate to buy them again if needed.Read full review

Great sound + value for money
Great headphones for the price. Very comfortable over-ear headphones, just the right weight and sound quality is superb. Two channels to choose from on base unit and headphones to eliminate any interference. To eliminate any hiss set the headphone volume fairly high on the TV and turn the volume down on the headphones. Rechargeable batteries with light on base unit indicating charging/fully charged. Read full review

Great with one minor gripe
We had the earlier model with silver panels, for the money they are great value after some years they broke (stopped working) we where so pleased with them so we bought the newer all black set these are as good but being all black it is more difficult to find the charging hole, thats my only gripe other wise work well all over the house unlike our broadband but thats another story, headphones recomended!Read full review

Same problem
Only problem is headphones tend to slip forward frequently when you lean forward ie. standing up from sitting. this was a problem with my other set which I had for several years and I thought would be corrected being a newer model but otherwise excellent.Read full review

Does the business!
Dead easy to set up, great sound quality and very comfortable.
They are an absolute boon for watching TV late at night or early morning as the neighbours won't hear a thing!
