Sony MDR-RF970RK
$100.00
Released August, 2007
The Pros:Looks pretty nice. Excellent range- can be on a different level of your house and still get a clear signal. All the adapters needed to connect them to either the RCA out ports on a TV.
The Cons:Auto-off/on design can be frustrating and finicky. Tinny audio sound. Poor internal circuitry means that loud/dynamic volumes will be clipped.

transmitter must be plugged in for headphones to work so travelling without an outlet is out.
