Disappointing.......2007-12-18
I purchased 2 pair of these XO Vision Wireless Headphones and neither worked in my Toyota Sienna DVD System. I had two sets that came with the IR system that worked beautifully and had hoped these would work for us since we are expanding our family by two. They were a disappointment! I even attempted to contact the manufacturer and grew frustrated when I received no response from my e-mail I sent. So back to the store they have gone! From what I could tell from searching online for trouble shooting ideas (since they come with no instructions, I discovered they either work or they don't...
Good Product.......2007-12-18
This is a very good product no problems so far. I would recommend these head phones.

Nice set for the price.......2007-09-06
As everyone else stated these are for use when you are primarily going to be in-line with the transmitter at all times.
I use mine everyday for 8+ hours a day listening to Stern and love them.
I recommend these highly.
Pointless.......2007-02-09
I purchased a set of these new and was unable to get them to work further than 6 inches from the transmitter. This negates any value the wireless feature may have. Fortunately, the vendor refunded the purchase price.
I eventually got around the problem by attaching a 25 foot extension cord to a set of ordinary headphones.
On the plus side, the headband is extremely comfortable. I recommend this model to anyone who enjoys wearing headphones but isn't concerned whether they work or not.
Excellent value.......2006-02-06
I took the advice of others and went to Radio Shack--still on sale for $19.99 as of 2/5/2006. The sound quality is great, and they fit very well (the self-adjusting strap works great). I use it for watching TV on the treadmill. The volume control on the headphones increases volume substantially, enabling you to drown out external noise. Comes with several adapters (mini walkman type, large stereo headphone type, and RCA to go into the TV output). If you need wireless headphones to watch TV and you don't need top-line sound quality (and you don't want to spend a lot), GET THESE!!
Great.....for the right price.......2005-08-05
I just got these at Radio Shack on sale for 19.99! Well, you can't beat the price but there are some caveats.
1. The range is probably more like 15 feet, and you really need to be in direct line of the transmitter...walk out of the room or block the transmitter and you get nothing but static. But, if you are within range the sound is excellent. The headphones are also very comfortable.
2. The instructions that came with mine were wrong regarding the recharging of the batteries. The instructions say to turn OFF the transmitter while recharging, but the transmitter must be turned ON to charge the batteries. Radio Shack customer service was very apologetic in pointing this out.
For $20 I think they're great, but I would not be satisfied with them at their regular price. If they still have them at this price at Radio Shack I'd say rush out and grab a bunch...great for Christmas presents...
Great buy.......2005-07-24
I bought a refurbished pair last month and love them, For the price they're a steal. The sound is really good & with the surround sound they pick up background noises usually not heard.
They are very comfortable with padded ear cups, and have a good range also. Don't be scared off by the the price thinking they're cheap, try em' first then decide if you wanna upgrade.

IF I HAD KNOWN..........2007-01-09
The headphones are great, nice bass sound, nice fidelity, but the transmiter did damage an hour after the first use.
Erroneous information on website.......2006-06-09
Ad stated this product is an RF headphone set. When received, it was actually an IR headphone set. The ad also states it runs on 2AAA batteries. Actually, it is a mobile set that required 12VDC to power the transmitter as well as the 2AAA batteries.

Waste of time and money.......2007-06-27
The transmitter requires external power supply which is not included, though product description forgets to state that. I wanted to order power supply for extra money but couldn't find one. I even couldn't return it, because ANTonline didn't authorize return, but this is another story :-)

"Wireless" - Well, technically, yes........2007-07-22
I have a severe hearing problem and I use special "ear hooks", rather than headphones, that work with my hearing aids. I used to have a wireless setup that replaced the headphones with a receiver that you plugged your own headphones into. This worked great - I could even go outside my house and still get reception because these used a Radio Frequency (RF) signal. Unfortunately, and after many years, they bit the dust.
I did a lot of searching and finally found the Koss HB60. In my excitement at finding a replacement, I didn't think about the fact that these used an Infra-Red (IR) signal. The difference is frustrating.
When they say that IR is line-of-site, they ain't kidding. Wander too much to the right or left, go behind a door, turn your back on the transmitter, or slip the receiver into a pocket and you can kiss the signal goodbye - even standing within the tiny range (20-30ft.) of the receiver.
You might as well be connected with a wire, after all.
I know that this all is just the way it is with IR, and I suppose they work as they should within the confines set by IR.
My suggestion: stick with RF, if you can. I'm still searching for that perfect replacement.
Attempted to return item..........2007-03-08
After receiving the item, I came to the realization that it was not what I wanted and I have been trying to return this item ever since. After calling the company to return it, I was told that I had to send an e-mail in order to get a return code. So, I followed the company's rules and sent an e-mail requesting a return code. That was about three weeks ago and I haven't heard or received anything from them.
I am still in possession of the item and wish to return it for a refund, however; I've not had any luck getting a response from this company. I'm quite certain I won't buy anything from them in the future.
DO NOT PURCHASE.......2007-02-05
Over the years I have purchased several makes and models of wireless earphones.headphones ranging in price from25 to 200 dollars. I am famaliar with comfort and range of sound being received from transmitter.
This product is awful to say the very least. I am not sure why it is even manifactured. The ear phones fall off constantly if one can even get them on. The clip on receiver is cumbersome and can not be covered in the least bit. The transmitter has to be way above ones head in order not to interfear with transmission. It can not be used near one's computer if you have any wireless items hooked up to computer. And on top of all of that weather used on computer, stero or tv. you can not move more than four to five feet away from transmitter for any reception at all. I do not mean just a bit of interferance or static. There is just no sound. Forget going into another room....ha ha ha...No such thing is possible. I would return the product but because everything that I have ever ordered from Amazon works so nicely. I threw away the container it was packed in, shipping invoice and shipping box. It is now in the garbage can where it should be. Please do not waste your money even if you are buying for a child. VERY VERY INFERIOR PRODUCT
Terrible reception.......2007-01-11
One headset barely works - it has a lot of static on it & one doesn't work at all. They are cheaply made & not worth the price at all. My kids were very disappointed with them on Christmas day.
Should ship without the headphones.......2007-01-05
The transmitter / receiver work great. My wife wanted something she could wear while exercising, and the "normal" wireless headphones were too big, too bulky, and too heavy for that. This was one of the few products we could find that would transmit sound to a normal set of headphones / earbuds.
As for the headphones that were shipped with the unit, as soon as I tried them on, my comment was "What in the _____ was Koss thinking when they designed this POS?" A speaker from Radio Shack and a clothes pin would be more comfortable.
But I didn't buy it for the headphones anyway, so I gave it 4 stars. Ship it without the headphones and cut the price by $5, and it would be a 5 star product.

Easy to use & acceptable sound quality.......2006-06-04
I purchased both the Koss HB60 & HB70 infrared headphones from Amazon 2 weeks ago & am haapy with both for different reasons.
Both use the same transmitter which was a breeze to hook up and compatible with both receivers of course.
The HB70 phones hold 1 AAA battery in each earpiece and are thus heavier on the head, while the HB60 allows us to plug in any headphone into their portable receiver containg 2 AAAs.
The HB70 headphones give an immediately noticeable better bass response with specs giving a range of 30-15000 Hz while the supplied HB60 clip-ons give a response of 50-15000 Hz and sound more 'tinny'. The reception and separation was very good for the price at about 15-20 feet and there was only a very small background hiss with both when the volume was turned down too low. For the HB70 the volume control is on the right earpiece while the control is on the receiver on the HB60. Just remember not to turn the source volume up too much or the bass sounds start to break up at high saturation levels at the transmitter end.
Convenience wise the HB70 has the advantage of no wires dangling, while the HB60 allows us to swop for a better pair of phones than the one supplied which are not very good. Remember to choose one with a low impedance though (quoted imp is 10000) or you would drain your batteries very quickly.
Overall, both good buys for different reasons but once the sponge earpieces on th HB70 wear off/disintegrate, I don't know where to get replacements while I can just buy new phones with the HB60. Alternatively, buy the HB70 and replace with any infrared headphone when it wears out, if the transmitter is still working.
Awful noise.......2005-12-30
I got these to use for my office and they turned out to be worse than useless. In order for them to work, you have to plug in the sending unit which needs to be fairly close to your radio. Unfortunately, with my preferred station, the noise generated by the power supply completely overwhelms the signal so these headphones are totally useless. Even when playing a CD the sound quality is terrible. I'm better off just turning it way down and living with it. I would suggest looking elsewhere for cordless headphones.
Disappointed with Infrared Technology .......2005-05-16
This is the 1st set of cordless speakers I've tried. I was warned about about IR vs radio frequency technology. I should have listened to the advice. RF is much better than IR.
I would not recommend these headphones
Below my expectations.......2005-05-10
When I bought the headphone, it seemed the best option: light, cheap, good brand.
But using it was kind of disapointing. Even at 3,4 feet away you hear a background squeaking.
When I had to get new batteries (after 2 months of far-less-than-intense use) I broke the little piece of plastic that holds the battery cover.
I am still using (I got used to the squeaking), but as soon as I have a chance I will look for something better.
UPDATE (02/01/06): I've lost my patience. It went to garbage. Spend more money and buy something better.
Short Range and lots of noise..........2005-01-31
I have never tried other wireless headphones, so I did not know what to expect. These headphones will only work in the room where the base is...that is not too much of a problem because I use them to watch movies when others in the house need quiet, but the amount of hiss and noise is quite distracting. No matter how I fiddled with the volume of the unit and the volume of the surround sound system I could still hear it.
One other thing that may be purely personal: I usually am reclining on the sofa when I watch the movies, with my head propped on pillows--these headphones have a "behind the head" design that is much less comfortable when you are laying back.
The only really good thing for me was the price, but I would be willing to pay more to solve these problems.

Not What I Expected.......2007-06-26
I have a PYLE DVD player installed in my truck and thought the PYLD headphones would work just fine. I contacted PYLE and they recommened these headphones.
These headphone did not work as expected. The audio quality was poor and the IR was subpar at best.
I would not recommend these for anyone.
This product, and ANTonline, suck harder than a vacuum cleaner store.......2006-10-26
I ordered this product from Amazon, I thought, but it was actually antonline.
First of all, the product has no resemblance to the product photo, other than it was apparently modeled roughly on human anatomy.
Secondly, the product is sold without a transmitter, which is fine if you happen to have a drawer full of Ir transmitters in your kitchen. That would have been nice to know in the product description since the only thing in my kitchen is half a box of Kix and mummified ketchup. No Ir transmitters though.
Thirdly, antonline will jack you for a 15% restocking fee plus shipping, so I got hosed for $10.27 for nasty headphones that A) don't work, and B) are so ugly that your Aunt Bunny wouldn't be caught dead wearing them.
My advice for this type of product is to shop around locally. I found the best prices at Radio Shack.

Wireless Ir Headphones with Transmitter.......2007-08-28
Very good product. I ordered this set to use on my home television. I used a 12VDC transformer I had from a previous product, spliced it onto the pigtail power leads, connected it to the TV audio output, and am very happy with the results. This unit is intended for use in a van or auto, but it is also an outstanding choice for in home. The sound quality is faultless.
Good product.......2007-01-09
Works right away with my overhead monitor with IR. Smooth transaction. Nice vendor.
Decent headphones - no power supply included!.......2005-10-22
The sound is decent, the drawback - no power adapter included in the set (12V DC) and no power input jack, only 2 bare wires hanging loose. Gave me a run around to get a transformer first, then I had to go to Radio Shack to spend additional $10 for female transformer jack connector, solder it to the wires.
Also, there is no mention on Amazon or the Pyle web site about the receiving range - it's only 6 or 8 meters max.
And, there is no real manual for this product yet, just small flyer type of paper included with basic info. No PDF product manual on the Pyle web site is available yet too.
Otherwise, the headphones work well with a decent sound coming out of it within the specified range.
