"Great after you've figured out how to set it up."
This was my first set of wireless headphones. I thought that you just plugged it in and it would work. It actually took me a little while to figure out how to get it working. I have a Sony tv I'm using it with and it doesn't have a headphone jack so I plugged the base into the output RCA jack. Then I had to turn the speakers on my tv off in the menu. Then I had to switch the audio setting to fixed instead of variable. Then I turned the switch on the headphones and the base to off and it worked fine.
I think the sound quality is really good. The reason why I gave it four out of five stars is that there is a slight static sound when there is a quiet moment on the show I'm watching. Most of the time I don't even notice the static. My only warning is that this set of headphones won't work on every tv set. You need to make sure your tv has an audio out RCA jack or a headphone jack.

"Works great, most of the time..."
This is my first set of wireless headphones. I bought them so my kids can watch TV in the living room at night without bothering me in the next room. I am using them with an ONKYO receiver, Satellite, PS3, and HD tv set up. I have the headphones tied into the receiver.

First time I tried them, there was a noticeable amount of static. The second time, however there was none. What changed? The time of day. The manual says that direct sunlight can interfere with the signal, and sure enough it does. My AV rack is near a window that gets a lot of sun during the morning (the first time I tried them), later in the afternoon when the window was in the shade the static was gone.

I have a large living room that is adjacent to our kitchen. I get good reception within the full TV viewing range.

The headphones are comfortable, although they tend to make my ears sweat after a while. I like the recharge base, and the overall look of the headphones. I didn't like the short (about 3 feet) phone jack cable that the unit came supplied with. I had to rearrange my stereo components to allow the cord to reach the headphone jack. Also, don't like having to plug/unplug them when I go to use them, but other than these minor annoyances, they sound great and get the job done.

"Cordless Headphones, Sony MDR-IF540"
I bought these headphones for my 83 year old dad who wears hearing aids in both ears. He can't hear the new tv. The hook up was simple and they worked great right out of the box. The instructions were simple and easy to read. Sony gives you a couple of different ways to plug in, depending on what set-up you have. They play loud enough for him and they don't make the hearing aids buzz. I feel that they are outstanding for the money and Amazon always makes buying from them simple and once again, a very good value.

"Good while they lasted"
I've owned these headphones for almost 5 months now. A little over a month ago, the sound started cutting out in the right ear. I was able to play around with it and move the headphones around and it'd come back. Annoying, but at least I could get it working fairly easily. Unfortunately, those days seem to be over as that doesn't quite do the trick anymore. The warranty was only for 90 days and they now charge about $25 to repair them (not to mention return shipping). I wouldn't recommend them unless you buy an extended warranty. Even then, they weren't exactly the greatest headphones in terms of sound. I'd recommend avoiding them.

"Only get this if you don't like quality sound"
Well, I had high hopes for this product. I should have known better. Basically, you get a lot of static no matter how you adjust the knobs. Nuff said. Always that background noise, no matter what. This will work if you are watching TV in bed and don't want to wake the wife, but forget any sense of realism if you want immersive sound in a gamer environment or quality live music. I returned my set after about 40 minutes out of the box. Plus, you have to really aim the IR transmitter perfectly just to get a decent signal, and it cuts out any time you move around or place your hand in front of your face. Much better to suffer the wire than to purchase this. Don't do it.
