I am looking for a solution to enjoy my TV and Movies after put kids on bed, and without interrupting neighbors. Sennheiser RS185 & RS175 seems pretty good choice.

I've been following on camelcamelcamel.com for the price range, pretty low prize on Amazon at the moment, but it doesn't ship to Australia unfortunately.

Then I saw this from JB Hi-Fi, acceptable price with local warranty.

I added an additional cross-pairing Headphone RS175 from http://www.scorptec.com.au/product/Headphones/Wireless/59102… with member discount $187 + $13 shipping

  Worth noting that they're having a 30% off all sennheiser headphones. And Sennheiser is offering a cashback for their Urbanite range.

    Seems smarter to buy these wireless nfc aptx codec senss and then an aptx compatible transceiver.

      seems pretty good,any recommendation about aptx transceiver for TV?

        @strayan: I saw this on Youtube reviews, seems not that good with the sound quality transfer. I am not expert in this area, could be the driver thing people talking about?

        @strayan: Do you know if the Urbanite XL Wireless supports the aptX Low Latency (LL) codec or just normal aptX? I am wondering whether its worth getting the aptX-LL enabled transmitter you have linked or not. Also the linked device is Bluetooth 4.1, would it matter if the Urbanites are Bluetooth 4.0 only? What is the benefit of the Priva II over say the Saturn Pro (besides the obvious multipoint): http://www.avantree.com/product-bluetooth-transmitter-and-re…

        @ozleb: I don't think the Urbanite XL wireless support LLC but I recommend you check with Sennheiser.

        There is a list of some low latency headphones here: http://www.aptx.com/category-low-latency/headphones

  Seems a wrong decision add HDR175, I properly will change RS175 instead, money saved.:P

  I have the RS170 with an additional set.. very happy with them for watching tv.

    For just tv you might also consider the rs120.

  I just let my neighbours have it with my subwoofer. It's fine, they let me have their dog's barking all day so I figure it's only fair :p

    My neighbor’s 3 favorite films of all time:

    3.) “10,000,000 Explosions”
    2.) “Army Guys Yelling At Each Other”
    1.) “Subwoofer:The Movie”

      Could be worse.

      I get to enjoy the sweet tunes of Chinese Satellite TV Dramas cranked to maximum volume on extremely cheap speakers that sound like the drivers are made of Doritos bags.

      The reverb sounds like the winds of another dimension have been unleashed in their living room; but an alternate dimension of modern-day China though, as once in a while, you can actually hear some Chinese dialogue. It's as if the actors are speaking to each other through the Large Hadron Collidor's tunnels.

  So this is $620 for 2 pairs of headphones.
  Is there a more affordable way to obtain a dual wireless headphone setup?

    You bet! You should be able to find these for about $99 in store though.

    They are an rf system also and I just got a set of sch5200's and I'm very happy with them. Super light and the sound is decent enough.

    Paying the $409 for a set of wireless cans just to watch TV is crazy. If some one is really keen on a decent set i recommend these:

    http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/TOP-Value-NEW-Sennheiser-RS-160-Dig…

    They are digital and offer better sound than rf which will suffer from a bit of interference. I use the rs 160's daily…got them a while back and work awesome! Also you can pair up to four headsets to one receiver.

      Thanks for the tips guys.
      I have 1 set of rs120.
      Does the rs160 and other models use the same RF frequency range? So, mix and match?

      • 

        Third_Gear on 26/12/2015 - 22:46

        Won't work. 120 is rf and 160 is digital which uses the ghz to xfr audio.

    Buy this http://www.telme2.com/webshop/index.php?id_product=16&contro…

    Plus two pair of aptx bluetooth headphones.

      futaris on 06/02/2016 - 21:33

      If you have two connected, they still do aptx?

        strayan on 07/02/2016 - 22:01

        I don't know you'll have to contact the manufacturer and hope that they're honest.
