Wireless Headphones

Options
Been looking for a place to go to get some decent wireless headphones (for TV and music).

Would rather go to a shop than buy online. I'm in the Midlands. Any ideas?
Fokking Fokk!

    I got mine from Currys on the hi street, i think they were about £35 and they are just brilliant. OH goes to bed, I like my music loud, every body's happy
    They are Philips sbc hc445 but do your research first maybe on Amazon and Currys web sites.

    The prices vary so much, you can go up to hundreds of pounds for these, depends what you want really'
    Seinhessen (sp) are a really good make but expensive.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    Thanks. Seen some around £100 that look decent, but you think cheaper could be just as good?

    Cheaper isn't better, BUT it all depends on how much you value audio quality.

    you can get the slightly older sennheiser wireless ones now quite cheaply off ebay. and if you have a local richer sounds they will usually be willing to let you have a listen.

    I don't think you have to spend lots of money to get good sound - I bought a pair of Philips wireless headphones like this. They were cheap on eBay - £20 and I'm very pleased with them.

    All i use my philips ones for is watching tv with me sat in the same room
    occasionally niping off to the conservator for a ciggie, hisses a bit then but in the same room they are fine with a good sound.
