As the title says, I'm looking for a pair of cordless/wireless headphones, mainly to watch tv/xbox late at night.

I've had a pair of Sennheiser RS110 for the past year, but there is a problem with signal drop out, which is undesireable to say the least. The sound was fine, but the reliability wasn't.

I ahve trawled through 30 pages and not found anything that relates to my needs. Can anyone in the know reccommend me a decent product.

Thank you
Cad

Does it HAVE to be cordless? You'll get a lot more for your money if you get a wired pair.

And budget? Top end is the AKG K840 KL.

Yes, they have to be cordless.
I'm prepared to pay, if they're a great product.

In that case it's either the RS170/RS180 (depending on whether closed or open back) or the AKG. My money would be with the Sennheiser cans, the signal range is much improved compared to the older models. The AKG is on-ear which might be a little uncomfortable.

Get them at a place that does a 14/30 day guarantee so you can try em out properly.
