The good: Affordable, 900MHz wireless headphones; surround-sound effect; very comfortable; base unit recharges batteries; built-in volume control.

The bad: Noise and hiss can intrude on the sound.

The bottom line: Panasonic's affordable wireless headphones feel comfortable and sound great.

With a list price of $99 and costing even less online, Panasonic's RP-WF930-S headphones are among the most affordable 900MHz wireless models we've seen. Inexpensive as they are, the WF930s still look and feel like more expensive headphones, thanks to their plush leatherette ear pads and comfortable headband. The headset weighs 9.2 ounces, which is about average for today's wireless models.

The WF930s' silver plastic charger base has a permanently attached, wall wart AC power supply and a stereo hook-up cable that you can plug into your receiver's headphone jack or the stereo output jacks on your TV, DVD player, or computer. The right ear cup houses the volume control.
