Emerson EHP1000 RF Wireless Stereo Headphone System

Rating:
Summary: Great value, Good concept - a little weak on the execution
Review: Decently Comfortable, very convenient, easy to set up and use aside from poorly placed and inconveniently designed battery compartment. It is exceedingly difficult to insert batteries into the half-battery height compartment which opens above left ear phone and to get them in place, but its worse to remove them despite presence of a ribbon in the compartment meant to ease the process. I write the following with the advisory that I evidently had a defective unit: thinking fresh batteries might cure the initially less than satisfactory sound volume, I (with extended effort) replaced the initial, presumeably weak batteries with a fresh pair. The batteries immediately overheated to the point of being untouchable and I feared the headphones might melt, and only finally removed the batteries after an insane amount of effort and prying with other objects, after which I decided the lower half of the battery compartment cover would likely break before long due to the force required to remove batteries, and decided to return the unit - therefore never getting opportunity to effectively judge the sound. I have been using the Emerson backphone headphones for years and find them a spectacular value with fine sound.

Summary: The greatest!
Review: These are awesome! You can listen to your tv, stereo, etc. from almost anywhere! Even if your outside or on a different floor. This thing transmits through doors, walls, floors, other people, anything! (I think it's range is about 100 feet) Plus, you control the volume. So, you can crank up the volume and be in your bedroom listing to the CD in the living room! You can move around, too, and there is no interruption.

Summary: Decent sound, quite comfortable, poor range
Review: These headphones fit well, and have decent sound. On the down side the 100-foot range is wishful thinking, at least indoors. I bought these headphones for use our treadmill. Unfortunately, the treadmill motor interfered with the headphones unless the transmitter was placed directly next to the treadmill, headphone volume was set low and T.V. volume was moderate. This worked out well in my house. I ran a headphone extension cord from Radio Shack from the T.V. to a table next to the treadmill and got good sound. If your T.V. doesn't have a headphone jack like mine this is a great improvement. If you are looking for a set of wireless headphones for use near the audio source, and don't need mind blowing sound, these headphones are well worth forty dollars.
