LAS VEGAS - Jan. 7, 2015 - PRLog -- Wireless and compromise free: The next generation of Sennheiser’s RS line, launched at CES creates a new performance benchmark for digital wireless home audio. Powered by a new class-leading, proprietary wireless link technology, the RS 165, RS 175, RS 185 and RS 195 deliver best interference-free sound.

“Whether you’re enjoying home cinema, or seeking to catch every detail of your favourite music, digital wireless sets your entertainment free  – letting you immerse yourself in sound,” said Oliver Berg, Product Manager at Sennheiser electronic. “As the leader in the digital wireless headphone market, we are taking this vision even further with our new RS range. Combining state-of-the-art wireless technology with our expertise in high-performance wireless audio, the headphones deliver authentic sound at the highest ranges. With great design and supreme comfort, they create a personal experience to treasure.”

Sennheiser’s new proprietary wireless link technology delivers class-leading performance for wireless headphones: Operating on the 2.4 GHz band, it offers highly reliable connectivity with low latency and excellent range - with the RS 165 offering up to a 30 meters range and the RS 175, RS 185 and RS 195 letting users enjoy their entertainment at up to 100 meters from the transmitter.

“Through everyday life and also today’s technology-rich environment, our homes are ever more noisy in every sense. Using advanced digital wireless audio transmission technology ensures we can deliver high-quality sound for a great personal experience while, behind the scenes, efficient management of bandwidth ensures effortless co-existence with existing radio equipment in your home, for best interference-free listening,” said Oliver Berg.

Four models for different demands

Each new model offers a distinct sound experience to address different needs and tastes: The RS 165 provides a vibrant listening experience with optional bass boost. The RS 175 offers even greater involvement in the home entertainment experience, with its choice of virtual surround sound modes and switchable dynamic bass.

Delivering a rich yet balanced sound for the ultimate listening experience, the RS 185 – which, unlike the other new models features an open design – provides incredibly detailed, uncompressed sound for optimal wire-free HiFi-listening. It also offers a manual input level control for perfectly tailored unaltered sound.

With the RS 195, Sennheiser has expanded its wireless range to provide a high performing solution that can also help address specific personal hearing needs. Dedicated pre-sets and modes can increase speech intelligibility and tailor the sound to the user’s preferences to enhance the listening experience, whether watching TV or listening to music. The new headphones offer optional digital optical inputs available on the RS 175, RS 185 and RS 195.

Designed for modern homes and modern lives

Sculpted in clean, elegant lines, the headphones and transmitters with charging function share a discrete, premium aesthetic that aligns form and function.

All headphones in the range feature plug-and-play setup, simple intuitive controls, and easy charging for up to 18 hours of listening. An around-ear design provides excellent levels of comfort for even long periods of use, making them the perfect companion to home audio video systems.

The new RS digital wireless headphones will be available starting from January.
