They are however vented so you can still hear load external noises like your wife yelling at you to turn the TV off. I've had these for a month or so now.
I bought a set of these a few weeks ago. I'm an overnight worker and try to keep my sleep pattern regular, so I'm often up all night on my nights off. But when you listen to piano sonata, you have narrow peaks at a few frequencies in the sound spectrum at any given time. The clear wireless transmission should have a certain threshold for "clipping" for any narrow frequency range. I often hear things the rest of the family does not. I would recommend the RS180 for anyone with hearing problems. They also make my head a tad warm, but I honestly think that's to be expected. Bottom line, I'm able to listen to the TV later at night as loud as I want without disturbing the rest of the family.
Well, even though I was expecting a good overall experience with the product, my expectations were more than satisfied. The wireless headphone system has excellent sound and reception. Plus, I have had since initial release and still don't know what the ALC button does, I'm sure it is some gimmick. Worst of all, the thing flashes the power light all the time whether on or off.
For active applications such as gaming or playing an instrument, however, these are out of the question. I am sure I have not even explored all this headphone set can do.
But day to day, incredible range and quality (I live in a townhouse and I can go between floors). It's much better than my older RS130. So, to adjust the volume or balance, I've typically needed to remove the headphones to find and work the buttons. That can become a bit annoying after a while.
These cans utilize Kleer technology and an open design. I always preferred open headphones for the more natural bass response and to my 50 year old ears these sound great. You can't go wrong with Sennheiser! We replaced a cheaper item with the Sennheiser RS 180 Digital Wireless Headphone System.
