She can not only hear the TV, and adjust volume and balance to one or the other ear, using simple controls on the headphones right ear piece, the headphones help muffle and protect her from the sound of the treadmill. We hoped to use the set both for watching TV and while exercising on our treadmill. At first, we could not figure out how to use it, because there is no 3.5 mm outlet on the TV. We got the set, and within 10 minutes I had it set up and connected using the 3.5 mm adapter into the aux sound output of the 19" digital TV at the treadmill.
We can now watch TV together without one or the other being able to either NOT hear it, or being DEAFENED by the volume. Manual instructions were clear, setup was a no-brainer. My wife is ecstatic, and has been using it while exercising for over two months or longer now. I originally bought a this wireless unit and headphone set hoping to find a solution for my wife, who over the past few years has suffered significant and progressive hearing loss in both ears. Or, my wife uses the headset, and I just use the remote control and no head set. But I love screening out the noise of the treadmill, as I walk for 1 1.5 hours at a time.But wait, there is more.We wanted to also use the set with our TV, a 42" LG.
Then I figured out you just locate the aux output, and find one video and two sound outputs, all three classic RCA connector types outlets. They may be red and black for sound instead of red and white, the classic coding, but you just plug red and white sound RCA plugs from the headphones into the red and black outputs on the TV, and presto, you have sound to the earphones.Two weeks ago I ordered a second wireless set with headphones, AND an additional third headset.
Be aware the only problem then is that if you have the TV un-muted and too loud, at some point, the person with the headset will become aware of the echo sound of the TV as an external sound conflicting with the headset sound.This unit has been not just all we hoped for, but more. We watch a small TV while walking on our treadmill, but the noise of the treadmill and the hearing loss had made this a nightmare for my wife.
Best of all, when she watches something like Top Model or Project Runway, I am able to stay in the room and read without having to listen to it. Take my word for it, this is a fantastic and helpful solution for the hearing impaired.
I even use the headphones now while on the treadmill, even though, fortunately, my hearing remains sharp and acute. That alone is worth the price of admission.If we both use the earphones, we simply mute the TV with the remote, and each control our sound volume and balance with our headsets.
I cannot recommend it highly enough if you are faced with the needs we were able to solve with this equipment.
Sound quality is very good. I have purchased two sets. Battery life is long enough for watching a couple of shows and then you can recharge it until the next time. During the several months since purchase I had no problems with these headphones. They work great for watching TV. The system allows for the use of two headphones on the same receiver which is a very nice feature. The headphones tend to be a bit heavy on the ears after a couple of hours but other than that, I have no complaints (not a big issue though).
There is simply too much background noise when there isn't any music playing, and even when there is music on, I could still hear the buzzing noise. If this is true of all wireless models, then I would rather stick to wired headphones.
great product. take this into consideration before you buy. if i had to buy em again. works out of the box. I just get a good set of headphones and a sandisk clip + with microsd card. no problems. sounds great. otherwise great product.
bought these for long range listening, i haven't tried them in a wood building, but in my concrete building i.e. work, they have a max 40ft range. i wouldn't. just my opinion.
it's not an open earphone so, the bass is good, but the sound always seems to be a little bit louder to normal ears. Received it for a month, sound quality is quite good, and solid built, recharge seat is easy to use. Battery life is also good. and after long time the ears may get very "tired".It's wireless so it's very convenience. I would recommend this earphone and it's worthy for the price around 100 bucks.
