Sennheiser RS120

Add to my list Product summary

The good: Wireless headphones; lightweight and extremely comfy; excellent sound quality; transmitter base doubles as a battery charger; built-in volume control.

The bad: Noise and hiss sometimes intrude on the sound; volume and tuning controls are too close together.

The bottom line: Sennheiser's affordable, comfortable wireless headphones sound almost as good as corded 'phones.

Sennheiser's latest RF wireless-headphone set is that rare midrange model that outperforms its pricier sibling. The RS120s ($110, with a two-year warranty) look hip and offer home-theater and music performance that's considerably better than that of Sennheiser's more expensive RS65s. Were it not for the occasional interference, we'd think we were listening to corded headphones.

The RS120s weigh a slight 8.1 ounces and enclose and coddle your ears. They proved comfortable even after a long evening of listening to DVDs. A built-in volume control lets you crank up the action, while a transmitter control lets you fine-tune the reception. A minor annoyance is that these two controls are located next to each other on the right earcup, so we were sometimes treated to a blast of static when we just wanted to adjust the volume.
