I purchased this headset because I was familiar with the quality of Sennheiser products. The price was the deciding factor and was aided by good customer reviews.I found the unit was easy to set up but I did spend a couple of minutes getting the unit to communicate with the base station. The sound quality is quite good but as previous comments have noted use the volume control on the TV to adjust the volume to prevent the background hiss from becoming noticeable. The device is quite comfortable to wear but my ears become a warm after extended wear, noticeable but not uncomfortable.The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it is rather bulky.Overall, this is a great wireless headset that can't be beat on price and quality.
