these should work with a samsung smart tv with optical audio and pc with a jack, right? i presume for audio/movies should be flawless, but how about games on a console connected to tv through hdmi? also, wifi modem interference?
have you tried Yamaha headphones with 3d sound ?
Can you buy surround sound Bluetooth headphones?
Are you related to someone called Norman by any chance?
aa battery in 2023 is a joke
i had Sony L600 Wireless for few months. I had to sell them. Little did I know that they would be impossible to buy again ((( THose are Incredable!
tank you
Can’t do this voice.
The deal breaker is the independent battery. Why not just make the headphones rechargeble?
I’ve been using a pair of Sennheiser RS 180 wireless headphones for years. Great addition to my PC setup for nighttime listening. Spatial audio works well, as do various DTS and Dolby formats with apps/extensions to Windows 10/11. I’ve compared them to Apple Airpods Max headphones and have a hard time telling the difference for most audio tracks. The Apple headphones are much heavier and use Bluetooth instead of RF.
I’ve been waiting for this review as I thought only specific Apple / Beats products were capable of spatial audio through the Apple TV 4K?
I often listen after hours with wired headphones and would like the best audio experience possible. I already have a pair of Sennheiser Momentum II and was thinking I’d need to "upgrade" to enjoy spatial audio with my streaming services . Will a compatible pair of Air Pods or these specific Sennheiser’s offer me something I’m not currently getting……
Is there a way I can use on a laptop? How can I do that?
I like the fact that they have a user-replaceable battery in a standard rechargeable AA size.
I thought optical can’t transmit Dolby Atmos? Only up to 5.1
no bueno haha i think i gonna get uno per moi, muchos dankes!
exactly what batteries come with this headphone? Since batteries are consumables, I’m worried if I can just replace them with our regular rechargeable batteries these days…
Thank you for this video.
Thanks for review
Man…your TV placement just hurts my soul. OVER the fireplace!? ICANT! Your eyes should be level with 2/3 of the TV
Ealan are you related to Clint Eastwood? Top YT video! Merry Christmas..
I feel like I am watching a review of a 1996 headset.
Aw great review, if you are looking for binge watching (Hierarchy all 7 episodes) with comfort, try the PHILIPS Fidelio X2HR albeit they are wired you forget you are wearing.
Man I was this close to buying a pair of these but all the digging in my TV settings only shows Digital Dolby or DTS using ARC/eARC and couldn’t find whatever PCM is.
I have paired on RF 175 to my audio receiver/tuner connected to various things (Apple TV, TV Cable Box, etc etc). I bought another one before I saw this video its not a 175 HDR. Can I make the second one work or do I have to return the other and purchase a 175 HDR?
Sounds like Jenson fro Deus ex
Hey i hv a doubt while keeping the atmos spkrs in frnt heights and rear height what should be the distance btw the two to experience the good atmos effect!?! As u said this was the bttr configuration than anyother 4 atmos spkrs set up!!?
Why you whispering…..
Never buying Sennheiser wifi headphones again. I’m replacing RS165 – whenever there’s something very loud the limiter kicks in reducing volume drastically, it then takes up to a minute to return to previous level. Plus bass distortion.
Hi, just purchased. My power button will not turn on . ( It did once very quickly and turned off). Does that have something to do with not being fully charged??
Hey, I watch UHD Blu Rays on my Panasonic 4K player as well as play games on the PS5.
Are these headphones a good option for the above? As opposed to say Bluetooth headphones connected to the TVs Bluetooth?
I hate lag. I have tried headsets that people say have no lag, only for them to have output lag out the ass. For some reason when I tell people the headset they like have lag, they get mad. Does this headset have output lag? Is it comparable to a wired headset?
Does the audio output on the TV need to be switched to PCM every time you use the headphones? That seems a little annoying…
I’ve bought these amazing headphones back in 2018 and have been using them since, why did they suddenly get a resurgence in reviews in 2023?
I have skullkandy crush I’m wondering if sunheiser are better
Can one person have the headphones on and another not, and be able to hear the external sound equipment or does it cancel?
Nice review. I’ve had these for over 6 years and they are still as good as the day I got them. Nice thing about these is you can buy replacement ear cups for relatively low cost
I thought I was the only one with trouble wearing headphones !! Also I’m tempted to try using my JBL quantum 800’s on my tv and see if it does the spatial audio? 🤔
Useful and straight to the point information. Liked and subscribed! Thank you for the great review.
I liked what my Senn HD800 did for movies, but that was just a PCM stereo signal – no idea where the tech is at with these wireless wunderkind from Apple and Sony.
how are these compared to airpod max spatial audio ?
Like you, I cannot wear over the ear headphones for a very long period of time, certainly not enough to get through even the shortest of movie. I do better with on ear or in the ear headphones though.
In my opinion nothing beats the movie experience like a good set of headphones. I won’t watch TV any other way and haven’t for many years.
Can anyone let me know about sound insulation? Not from inside to outside, but from outside to inside 😅. I live in a flatshare, and watching a movie when your flatmate is cooking can get pretty annoying from the kitchen noise.
I just bought these and I wanna know can the person sitting next to you still hear the tv??
This is the first time I’ve spent more than 150 on a headset so I hope it’s worth it, im primarily getting it for music purposes, also I’m just excited to finally have sennheisers 🔥
I’ve owned these headphones for about 8 years. They’re hooked up to my TV via optical cable, and I use them for watching movies and playing video games. They’re great for when you want it loud, but you don’t want to disturb anyone else.
I absolutely love that the sound controls are right there on the headset, I can just reach up and adjust as needed.
If I wear them for over an hour, it does start to hurt on the top of my head and I need to adjust them slightly.
I am completely satisfied with the sound quality. I’ve used them regularly for all these years, so the sound quality has gone way down. The quality lasted well beyond the 2 year warranty though. I may have sped up their deterioration with such regular use, and I often had it turned up louder than I should have (bad for the ears!).
The padding on the ear pieces has also deteriorated. I find little black flecks on my ears now.
I’m satisfied overall with this item. In fact, I just ordered a new pair. I can’t wait to get it so I can experience the quality again at its best. I would recommend these to anyone.
EDIT: Important thing to know if you’re using these for the first time – you have to hold down the power button on the headphones for several seconds to turn them on. It didn’t tell me this anywhere in the instructions, so I thought they were defective. Hold the button down for 3 seconds, otherwise they won’t turn on.
Can you pair two of them together
What headphones would you recommend in 2023 for the tv and movies
the creepiest review ever
These or the xm5 for a Sony tv??
My local FOX station started processing their audio in some weird manner about a year ago. The center channel information is thinly stretched across the front three channels, added some echo effect to the whole sound, and added a lot of bass punch to bring out more punch on $20 subwoofers. I’ve corresponded with them and they say they’re doing nothing to their signal. Yet the local commercials and news all sound this way as well. It sounds like one of the "gimmicky" surround effects like "hall, stadium, etc.". Why would they do this? EVERY other channel sounds normal (prime time TV and news) as do streaming channels such as Netflix, HBO Max, Disney +, etc. Anyone have any ideas if a network affiliate in their area is doing something stupid with their audio as well? This is OTA on two TiVo Bolts. I also have DirecTV and the local FOX sounds just as stupid as OTA. I’m hoping DirecTV will let me get the west coast feeds of FOX so that I can record the shows I enjoy on FOX and hopefully have better sound that way. If anyone out there has more information on this, I’d be highly appreciative to know. I hope it is a fad that doesn’t grow any further. Thanks!
