Summary: review of the wireless headphones MDR-RF950RK
Review: The sound is very good. I can hear everywhere: in my basement, outside and so on. The only comment is that sometimes when I turned my head, the sound disappeared for a 1/10 of second. But it is possible that I did not tune them well. I compared this product to another, which you can by in RADIOSHAK. SONY is much better. Especially I like their headphones, because they are very comfortable.

Summary: Okay, but not great.
Review: Virtually every product I've bought from SONY has worked flawlessly. And these headphones do exactly what SONY says they will -- i.e., they transmit sounds from my amp wirelessly. Unfortunately, the sound that is transmitted leaves A LOT to be desired. Hiss, pop, flutter, and various other distortions happen all the time. Of course, the AM/FM tuner on my receiver has similar problems. But my wireless (802.11) AirPort base station and card work quite well. I guess we just need packet-based error-correction for human ears! When is SONY going to put a DSP in these headphones to correct for poor wireless reception, anyway? Sign me up for those!

Summary: Very disappointed in Sony
Review: Wish that I had checked these out at Amazon before I bought them elsewhere. Extremely lo-fi, popped, noisy, spent several hours moving the base and tuning them , got the sound quality all the way up to pretty poor. I never return anything, but these went back, I am here looking for some headphones with a cord. (Tried to edit the above, but could not without redoing it, forgot to metion flimsy feel and poor fit.) Remember when Sony was a name you could be sure of? I'm not sure anymore. Buy something else and save yourself some time and trouble.
