You get what you pay for
I took a chance on these having broken my previous set which were double the price when new. I have found these too small for a comfortable fit, there is not a lot of adjustment with the head band and the cups are just a fit, I do not have above average size ears? The plasic quality is made down to a price, the rear of the battery container is very flimsey and needs to be handled with care. The charging system is very slow as it seems to take 4 h... Show More

What a great prezzie
These headphones were a present and at first I thought my hubby was trying to tell me he doesn't like my taste in music (heavy metal and rock have to be listened to with a certain amount of volume or the effect is lost). I love listening to music while the rest of the clan prefer the television which in the past meant I was attached to my laptop via the tiny, thin headphone cable and unable to do anything else. With the new headphones I am finall... Show More

Best on offer - but not the cheapest
My elderly father who is hard of hearing has had a succession of such types of wireless headphones which he uses for watching television. I needed mine for other purposes but have had chance to compare others. This set is the best overall. Wireless headphones are better than infra-red because they are not restricted to one room if you wish to wander around while listening - or even go down the garden - you need the 100m transmission range.

Straight Replacement.
My old pair of these gave up the ghost and as I was perfectly satisfied with those I did not consider going for another brand or model. This should say enough. No 5 star rating however for the following reasons; The previous pair were no more than 3 years old and I'm disappointed that they went kapput with no obvious explanation. The way the headphones sit on the charging mount seems to me slightly awkward, though only a very minor irritation. I... Show More

Great Earphones
I tried several other earphones, including more expensive names. I finally decided on these ones having weighed up several things. The sound quality is excellent, with decent bass and crisp high notes. I am a bit of a music nut so I am hard to please. The reception is fantastic.... I can still hear my music perfectly in the shop across the road! The closed back is good for if you want to listen to music or TV when in bed and you don't want to kee... Show More

Happy with product
Plugged it in and it worked straight away!! The batteries were already charged and the headphones and base unit talked to each other automatically. I have only used this when plugged into the computer for music and film audio over the past month. Head phones are comfortable to wear, sound quality is good, volume control is good with a good range (I have no hearing problems) and the volume is easy to control. The range is good although it did st... Show More

BRILLIANT !!!!!!
Bought these for my hubby at Christmas as he is slightly hard of hearing and drives me mad with the volume on the television too high and my hearing is very sensitive.No more arguing that it is either too loud for me or too quiet for him. Heaven! He wears them and I turn the volume down on TV. These headphones have a volume control which is great and also when he goes into the kitchen to put kettle on during ads he can hear when his programme. co... Show More

A good buy
These are not the best quality headphones in terms of construction, some may find them a bit uncomfortable and the power supply cable is not very long. For the price I am OK with this and the quality of sound production is more than acceptable, especially with surround sound switched on. In terms of operation I did have a problem at first - they wouldn't work despite the clear instructions. Eventually I used just the single jack input, and not wi... Show More

Excellent value product - recommended
I bought these for my wife who is suffering temporary hearing loss and was unable to enjoy television. The transmitter was easy to connect to the line out connections of the TV enabling me to use the volume normally. They will do about 4 evenings on a full charge and luckily the batteries appear to come pre-charged allowing the phones to work straight from the box. An adaptor is also included to allow connection to a 3.5mm headphone socket. All t... Show More

Excellent
Headphones are comfortable to wear - very adjustable. Sound quality is excellent. There is a volume control on the headphones. The lead from the charging base to the floor could be a bit longer i.e. if you place the base/transmitter on a cabinet to improve reception the plug does not reach the electric socket on the floor/wall and the base does have to be plugged in when in use. Overall these headphones are an excellent purchase - in fact I have two sets for use in different places as I like them so much. They are the best and I have done a lot of research and comparisons.

Pretty good, really
Got these for my (60+) Dad's Christmas present. I had some difficulties setting them up - at first it seemed like they weren't working, but eventually got the right channel and the base and phones synched. But since then has been absolutely fine. I don't know if it's because my parents' TV is also Panasonic, but I've managed to set them up so that the TV and headphones volumes are independent i.e. Mum can mute the TV when the football's on and Dad can still listen! The instruction manual's not great and it can be a bit fiddly to recharge, but overall, a good product.

A bit disappointed
I found the sound quality very good. However I was disappointed in the quality of the headset and the fit. I expected the headset to be made of plastic but the cover to the batteries seemed very flimsy and after a few uses I would expect it to break. Regarding the fit, I found the strap across the head to be very tight and this made the ear pieces also tight to my head. It has now relaxed a bit but not much. This has meant when the headphones are "parked" in the charger one side is now outside! Remember once purchased this item cannot be returned for hygiene reasons.

Excellent
The sound quality on these headphones is crisp and clear. The base is excellent too. I use these to listen to music and watch movies. When watching a movie, i turn on the surround sound. Absolutely amazing. Only negatives would be the placing of headphones on the charging base. Fiddly. Also tend to hurt my ears a bit if wearing for long periods. I had a fault with my first set, but Argos replaced them without hesitation, as always. Fantastic retailer. The best, in my opinion. On the whole i am very impressed , also got them with a great saving. Thanx Argos

Great buy
These wireless headphones are a great buy for the price. I bought these based on the 5 star rating from customer reviews, so that was a great guide for choosing which headphones to go for. They are a great fit and comfortable to wear. I had a bit of interference on the sound to start with but when I increase the volume on the appliance they are plugged in to and adjusted the sound on the headphones accordingly they are perfect. I would recommend these for anyone wishing to buy wireless headphones in this price range as they are great.

Reasonable sound quality, good build and simple.
Sounds quality is adequate, there is back ground hiss still where we use it regardless of chancel selection (there are 3). The headphones are plenty loud enough for an elderly listener who these where purchase for. The build is good and comfort it okay as well. Headphone cups could be a bit larger for those with bigger ears though. The functionality is very simple though which is perfect. You can leave the power switch on and docking them will start charging and switch them off automatically

Wireless Headphone Heaven
The headphones were bought as a replacement for a pair of wireless sennheiser headphones that became unreliable after a few years sterling service. The headphones are very comfortable to wear, the sound is excellent and I am very satisfied with them. They are nice and tight and don't fall off easily. They have auto-tuning and do not exhibit an audible "hiss" after a while when the sound from the TV is muted. Panasonic is a well known brand name and this product enhances the brand reputation.

Convenient and easy to use
The headphones are very convenient, simply put them on the base unit to charge them. When no longer using the headphones and the TV is switched off, the base unit is not receiving a sound signal from the TV and it switches itself off automatically, which is good. My only criticism is that the sound has a little too much bass and can seem overpowering at first, till you get used to it. There is no way to adjust the bass or treble. I would recommend these headphones, considering the price.

Excellent Product
The product is exactly what I purchased. Have noticed however the headphones do not work in conjunction with my tv, but looking at other reviews, that appears to just be my problem. Occasionally you do hear a form of feedback being picked up, especially when used with my phone and when im near a source of electric (like a light switch that is on etc.) But its nothing terrible. one thing I wish I had read however was the space it takes up, but other than whats stated its a perfect product.

Good Product
Good cordless headphones that tune in almost instantaneously using an "FM" radio signal as opposed to an "Infared" signal, which is much better as "Infared" signals cut out if there is a wall in the way etc! Highly reccomended if you like to hear the TV or Music at your own volume level ! The only tiny "Gripe" I have is that the headphones do feel a little tight after a while but this is easily remedied by removing them for a few seconds and rubbing your Ears. Overall well worth the money!

Lovely pair of heaphones.
I think these headphones are very good. They are very light and comfortable so they can be worn for hours without discomfort. Sound quality is great! While it does have surround sound at all times, there is a switch that makes the surround more exaggerated. I find this actually messes with subtle sounds so that they cannot be heard, so I leave it off. Charging on the dock can take a long time and a high pitched noise comes from it when charging. Other than the charging I love them!

Best quality headphones I've ever owned
These headphones were purchased for me by my partner as my old ones had just about had it, these headphones are brilliant the sound is crystal clear and really loud and the surround sound button gives a great sound when watching films, they even stay connected and crystal clear while walking around the house or garden as I have used these while cleaning my car outside and tuned in to the music channel on my tv and there is no difference in the sound quality or connectivity,
