The RS 160 is a two-part headphone system, powered by a couple of NiMH batteries and a transmitter that connects to your output device. It's very simple to set up as the whole system is plug and play. This compact and portable transmitter utilizes Kleer's uncompressed digital wireless audio transmission. It offers an effective range of 20m (line of sight), and can serve up to four pairs of headphone.

Type of Listener:Casual listener
Most Important to Purchase:Sound quality
How Often Used:Daily
This is my third set of wireless RF headphones for use in the bedroom for my wife and I. We watch TV in the morning and at night, and listen to music on sleepless nights. The audio quality of the RS 160 is excellent, however, the controls lack any human factors for ease of use. To understand how to operate these headsets you have to read the users manual contained on the CD, as the multi-function power control is not intuitively obvious. To operate the headphone, one must remove them and directly look at the three switches (volume up, power, volume down). Otherwise, it is too easy to press the power button instead of the volume buttons. Once I installed adhesive backed, rubber pads on the volume up and volume down buttons, I was able to operate the headphone with it in place. The rubber pads allow me to feel the two volume control buttons and locate the power button in the middle. I am surprised that such a quality audio product did not include better printed material and tactile feel to the three control buttons.
What's great about it: Wireless RF performance and audio quality
What's not so great: Very poor tactile feel of the multi-function power control and volume adjustments
I would recommend this to a friend!
