Wireless Surround Headphones for Movie

Recommended Posts

Hope to get the above but they dont feature 5.1ch, do they? I google around, all i come across are using effect to provide virtual surround.

 

Is there any which uses a true 5.1ch?

 

If there is, will there a big diff for 5.1ch & virtual headphone?

 

how good is wireless nowadays, will the transmission be interfered by other wireless microwave, digital cordless or handphone?

True 5.1 = 2 main speakers, 1 centre, 2 surrounds, 1 sub. So there's no such thing as true 5.1 for headphone, all are virtual surround.

 

The best wireless now is using Kleer technology. I've using the Senn MX-W1 which works very well, feel like wired earphone.

 

They do have two model of headphone to choose from.

I've got a pair of Sennheiser RS160 from Stereo recently, its by far the best wireless I've owned. If isolation is a concern, get the RS140.

how good is the transmission? any interference or distortion when digital cordless phone or microwave oven is in use?

Yup... the sennheiser wireless using Kleer technology is really impressive. Considering the fact that it's wireless... performance was too good to be true. Not that I had tried any wireless headphones that sounds like that. So I added the RS180 to my collection ... too good of a wireless headset to resist. :cans:
