FOURTH Generation RF - Wireless Headphones

Your car radio has auto-tuning, now your headphones can too. Just switch on one of Sennheiser's new 5 series wireless headphones and the one-touch 'Centre Lock' button instantly tunes the headset into its matching transmitter. Smart styling and a transmitter base which stores and charges the headset complete the picture.

The RS45 combines excellent quality sound with modern design
The RS65 adds extra comfort, performance & SRS Surround Sound

Sennheiser RS45

• Centre-Lock auto-tune
• Transmitter/charging stand
• On ear capsules with fabric pads

The RS45 delivers a balanced analytical sound, a wide
frequency response and a strong bass. Volume and channel can be adjusted on the headset, the transmitter is fitted with a filter to eliminate TV interference and of course, many headphones can feed off one transmitter.

Sennheiser RS65 as 45 plus

• SRS Surround Sound Processor
• Increased loudness
• 2nd Battery supplied

Featuring the same wide frequency response, but higher maximum volume, the RS65s sit comfortably round the ear and deliver a transparent balanced sound. Velvet-like earpads and the unit's light weight make listening a pleasure. Switchable SRS(TM) processing turns the RS65 into a surround sound headphone. Music recordings benefit from a concert hall atmosphere and movies surround you. Not true cinema surround but very good for a headphone.

• High performance 863 MHz band wireless audio transmission
• High power radio transmitter delivers the full 10mW the regulations allow
• Centre-Lock auto-tuning activated by one button on the headset

• Switchable Channels minimise interference and offer a range of between 30- 100m

Why Wireless?
RS headphones can be connected to the headphone socket on any audio or video equipment and are ideal where cables would be in the way e.g. exercise machines, watching TV in bed, etc.
