Sony MDR-RF811RK Wireless Headphones Black (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

First of prehistory:
I use 2 separate devices. Once a gaming computer, and on the other hand I have a home theater PC cobbled together. The reason for this: The PC Gaming brings difficulties the HD power and mucked like rum. The HTPC is equipped with a Creative Labs CT5803, and a Foxconn motherboard. In addition, the image and the sound via HDMI to an ATI Radeon 5400HD running a 32 "TV.
Since I'm a real night owl, and at night like to watch late movies, it all depends on problems with others. Since a bedroom is located directly behind the TV, and I always have the sound loud, it comes naturally to problems. Since the HTPC also 5 meters away from me, and I hate clutter, needed a wireless headphone.
These headphones were perfect for me. Black design, large stereo and HiFi. I bought it at the store, however.
The headphones are well packaged. The charging cable is located at the transmitting station, and is unfortunately very short. The supplied battery pack has, according to the manufacturer, 13-hour battery life. This can be just with me already. During the test run with music, it was a bit disappointing as it was very rushed. This was, however, to the dead zone, where I live. The noise you will also be true only when the movies is really quiet and calm.
At the bottom of the headset are buttons and switches to change the frequency, on and off, and volume control. Now and then it happened to me, that I caught the volume knob, remove the.
After a 2-hour movie my ears were quite sweaty, but I can not blame. My Sony on-ear headphones are also sweaty when I aufhabe long. Especially if a PC with 2 fans heated the whole room (heating was replaced so ..).
Unfortunately, my head is relatively small. Also on stage closest headphones are still too large. This is evident for a while but no longer at.

Conclusion:
For the price a very good headphones. For music not suitable because it is stereo sound. Music needs rather 5.1 or 7.1 surround. Dei processing seems high, it is good at and also does not hurt when wearing long. The "sound of the sea", although present, but it is not zuu extreme, therefore manageable.
But due to the rather short charging cable I subtract a star. It makes sense a separate charging cable with enough length would have been, so to let the headset charge in an emergency during Guckens. While there is then no longer to Wireless, but it's better than to wait several hours until you can watch his film over.
Still a Top headphones for this price range and the purpose!
