Sennheiser RS140 Wireless RF Headset

Only the other day I found myself staring at the Philips TV headset with a cable long enough to span the Great Wall of China. This would ordinarily have pleased me; only I wasn't really in the mood to deal with all the cabling. Then I noticed the Sennheiser wireless headset staring at me, and I found my answer. This is nothing we haven't seen before, but it's a neat wireless solution all the same.

Sennheiser has always made technology seem simple, but only from afar. This premium brand has generally been out of the common man's reach. This one doesn't come light on the pocket either. If you are the impatient sort, just skip right to the end for the price. But if you crave full details, read on.

The design is pretty, and the unit is surprisingly light. Add to that the weight of two AAA batteries needed to run the connection from the headset. Both the earcups can be unscrewed. The one on the right gives you access to the battery compartment. All you need to do is push the cushions slightly towards you and it comes out. I suppose this allows you to easily change the cushions – since these are the first things to wear out.
