For the price I can't fault these. I've had far more expensive wireless headphones before that didn't perform as well. In short, low noise (virtually no hiss), light weight, comfortable, decent sound reproduction and very good range. I use them mainly for TV and radio and can wander anywhere about the house (even going down the garden to feed the chickens) without loss of reception. Good battery life with the provided rechargables too.

I use these headphones for listening to TV (mostly news and music), listen to audio books and listening to Music, mostly black and doom metal. I also use them with my Roland electronic drums kit. They are fantastic; the clarity and quality you expect from Sony.

When I'm about half-a-meter away from the router (a BT crap) I hear some interference but otherwise they're absolutely clear and crisp.

I paid £35 for these on Amazon. If you're looking for wireless headphones in this range these are the ones to buy, forget Sennheiser and other expensive brands, they're unnecessarily expensive and they all have low levels of bass.

Before I received the headphones, I was expecting to return them to Amazon due to lot of negative reviews about wireless headphones in general but when they arrived I was impressed. I simply don't want to take them off.

Having read the reviews I bought these thinking Sony should be fine. I found these have been brilliant. Clear sound, of course they click a little if you are miles away but overall best value for the money.

When buying this item consider - "Do I really need wireless headphones ?"

For the price range however the wireless headphones are perfect but it is a lot of money, but a very reasonable price for the quality.
The headphones are very light weight, but are not very adjustable. I have many issues with the headband slipping from my head during use. The range however is the wow factor in this device. I could easily make 130 meters before interruption.

The sound quality is reasonable. The volume control certainly allows for "loud" music, however expect very limited bass replication.

All in all I am very happy with the product, easy to recharge and use, but not the best for comfort.

I was looking for some headphones to use with my computer and was fed up with wired headphones as they just got in the way. The Sony Basic was reasonably priced, a good brand name and looked as if it would do the job. Other reviews seemed to give the item a fairly good press. So I opted for this item. Arrived fairly promptly, easy to set up (when you finally read the instructions "It's a bloke thing"). Sound quality is generally good and the distance the headphones work is great. If you're looking for a no frills, quality named brand; you wouldn't go wrong with these headphones. I am overall Very pleased...
