I have several high quality product to choose from , but primarily this one along with set from Amphony . we home be heavily electronicize , with several 5.4 ghz product , wireless networking and a phone system , and we live in a high density metropolitan area , so I opt for infrare -lrb- ir -rrb- transmission since it can not be interfere with like radio-frequency -lrb- rf -rrb- system . overall , the experience have be exceptional : - the quality of the audio be wonderful , and there be user-selectable setting for ambience and material . - I be use the analog input for the input from my receiver , and the optical input for the output from my 24 '' iMac ; the optical input require specialty cable , as do the coaxial input . - reception be excellent , although it worsen if I sit 90 degree off center ; we unit be on a swivel tv , minimize this kind of problem . - I be tall , with a fairly large head , but the fit of the headphone have be very good , as well as feeling fairly light , and I have have no issue with comfort . - we use rechargeable battery around the home , and the unit use aa battery , as well as come with high-quality Sony rechargeable battery and a built-in recharger . - review from several online source be very positive , the only middling review from a self-professed audiophile who prefer the Amphony headset . con -lrb- minor -rrb- : - replace the battery be a little cumbersome , as I require a small prop , like a letter opener , to pop out the battery . - unlike rf headphone , you can walk outside the range of these , either via walk far away , or by walk into another room , but that be the primary issue with this type of headphone , and I buy it with the awareness .
