Sennheiser RS160 Reviews

CNET UK Reviews RS160 Digital kleer Headset - Best-Sounding!

"The Sennheiser RS 160 wireless headphones aim to please with their outright sound quality, rather than trying to woo you with fancy gimmicks. They succeed admirably, and are probably the best-sounding wireless cans we've come across."

What HiFi? Evaluates Sennheiser kleer RS160 Headset - Excellent!

"Portability isn't something you usually expect from RF headphones, yet that's what the Sennheiser RS 160s offer. The presentation is extremely crisp and clean all round, but there's also lots of taut, deep bass."

TechRadar.com Examines Sennheiser RS160 Wireless System - Very Good!

"The difference between the Kleer-powered set and traditional cordless headphones was dramatic. You get superb, crystal-clear sound without the slightest hint of the hissing and pulsing that affects FM models."
