Great headphones in their class
By J. Lee
This review is from a gamer's perspective, so if you are an audiophile, you may want to look elsewhere. I have a PS3 hooked up to some Logitech X540 speakers and wanted some headphones that could give me the same type of performance. I had a pair or Turtle Beach DPX21, but returned them because I did not like the soundstage of the headphones. They had good bass but the directional quality did not impress me.These Vizio XVTHP200 retail for over $300. To some, that may be expensive, but they are on par with other wireless headsets from other makers such as Sennheiser, Turtle Beach, or Astro Gaming.Out of the box you get the headphones, the wireless dock/stand, power adapter for the dock, travel charger for the headphones, 3 iPod/iPhone trays, 3.5mm audio cable, RCA cables Optical/Toslink cable and a carrying case.The wireless dock charges the headset via contacts on the top. The front of the wireless dock will display the input: iPod/SPDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interconnect Format)/AUX SRS Fuction: SRS TruVolume/SRS TruSurround and Dolby Digital Light.The back of the wireless dock has RCA Audio in, SPDIF in, RCA Audio Out, DC in, HUB/CLIENT switch, Pair button, and Power button. The top of the dock has your iPhone dock and an INPUT button.The headphone's left ear cup has buttons for: volume up, power, volume down, Active Noise Reduction, and SRS.The headphone's right cup has buttons for: Next track, play/pause, Previous track, a charging port, input and an input button. It also has a 3.5mm input jack for on the cup for hooking up an mp3 player directly when you travel.Tech specs are: Speakers: 40mm Neodymium DriversSensitivity 96±3 dB 1mW at 1.5mmDistortion: 1KHz < 10%Impedance: 32 Ohm ± 20% at 1KHzSPL: 110 dB SPL per 1mWBattery Power: Battery - 940mAHVoltage: Adapter - 100V~240VSo how do they sound? Fantastic. With the iPod or my iPhone plugged into the dock, music was crisp with great non-distorting bass. As for games, I tried COD MW2, COD Black Ops, and Split Second. At first I had the optical cable going straight out from my Samsung monitor and had the PS3 set the sound to use the HDMI cable. Sound was good but the PS3 then can't do Dolby Digital. I then routed the optical cable from the PS3 to the wireless dock and then the Dolby Digital status light came on. You soundstage was definitely better with the PS3 games with crisper highs. The unit has two SRS settings. SRS Truvolume is suppose to eliminate volume spikes. For me, it gave me a more louder more expanded sound. SRS TruSurround expands the sound even further. The Active Noise Reduction button should be used only if you want to block out certain sounds such as a jet engine or vacuum cleaner. Additionally, I noticed absolutely no white noise when nothing as playing. I also testing routing the sound from the speakers to the heading using a 3.5mm jack to RCAs and only got a slight noise when the volume level was higher than 70% from the Logitech's control knob. Keeping it at 50% fixed the issue.Drawbacks? The headsets are heavier than the Turtle Beaches and will probably be heavier than all the other brands you test but for me it is not an issue. The earcups adjust left to right and tilt and are very soft. They also fold up for traveling.The other issue is that the side of the headphone band are made of rubber so it was a bad dust magnet.The headphones took about 2 hours to fully charge. If you place them on the dock, then will always charge, even if the dock is powered off and then the headphones will power off once they are charged. You should probably only charge them only you get a low battery notice for best performance.So far I am very pleased with the headphones due to the fact it can stream audio from my PS3, my laptop or from my iPhone and charges my iPhone. The sound has great bass and very good separation even though it is a single driver unit. Build quality is good and being wireless is a great option compared to the wired units.If you are looking for a good wireless headset, I recommend you consider the Vizio unit.UPDATE: Some games like GT5 do not work under optical out. Initially I thought that the headphones had gone out, but you have to change the PS3 sound settings back to HDMI and not Optical Out. So if you are not getting sound from the gaming console, check your sound settings in the console or even in the game itself.UPDATE 2: So after two weeks of further testing, I returned the headphones. The main reason for me was personal in that they were too heavy and the leather padding was too hot for my head. I still think these are great headphones but just not for me. I went back to the Turtle Beach DPX21s and after adjusting the sound settings, I have happy with the TBs but don't like the fact that they are not self powered so you have to keep swapping out the USB plug from device to device for the TBs to power on.

By Fourth Quark
After researching wireless headphones for over 8 months, I bought this pair, and I couldn't be happier! The sound is crystal-clear (no humming, cutting, popping or cracking whatsoever), it supports Dolby Digital, protects your ears from jarring highs, automatically amplifies the lows, plays music from your iPod and iPhone, simulates surround sound, cancels outside noise (if you wish), works without its transmitter on an airplane (with airline entertainment system as well as for noise cancellation), and runs for 5+ hours nonstop in my experience. Wow.Oh, and it also has an RCA stereo-out, allowing you to connect other headphones or audio equipment that you might have.I have used this pair up to 40 feet away from the transmitter (with intervening walls), without a drop in sound quality.The fit is quite tight (probably to make the optional noise cancellation more effective), and it will not fit very large heads, but I got used to both these things within a few days. Plus, as another user has said, the ends of the headband are clad in some premium-grade rubber-like material that seems to attract dust. For me it's no big deal, because the dust (even if it is there) doesn't show.In fact, there was not *one* point on which I found a better pair of headphones. Sony, Sennheiser, Turtle Beach.... this one blows them all away. As an example, here's a head-to-head against Sennheiser's most expensive product:Vizio vs. Sennheiser RS 180------------------------------------* Vizio - $150; RS 180 - $330* Vizio - digital surround input (SPDIF, actually) *and* analog stereo input; RS 180 - analog stereo inputs only, no digital* Vizio - digital wireless transmission; RS 180 - the same* Vizio - iPod/iPhone dock; RS 180 - dock? what dock? you must be joking* Vizio - noise cancellation option (turn it on by pressing a button); RS 180 - no noise cancellation* Vizio - Dolby Digital; RS 180 - no DD* Vizio - SRS TruVolume (levels the volume so I can hear each dialog, no matter how softly it is spoken); RS 180 - a similar technology called Automatic Level Control* Vizio - SRS TruSurround; RS 180 - no surround* Vizio - has a 3.5mm stereo jack on one side so you can use it as a regular wired headphone on a plane; RS 180 - can only be used with its transmitter* Vizio - charges on the dock as well as from a USB port; RS 180 - can charge on its transmitter dock only

Great with two exceptions
By JerseyGirl 166
These headphones are a godsend! I live in an apartment complex where there is very little, if any, soundproofing in between units which causes me to have constant feuds with my neighbor. I bought some very cheap wireless headphones before these but those did not cancel the residual noises I was hearing from my neighbor's surround sound system. So, after much research, I came across these Vizio headphones and decided to give them a try. I have to say, once they are on your head, you hear nothing but the sounds coming from your electronic devices. The surround sound in the headphones are great as well. Whenever I'm watching sports or a movie, I feel like I'm watching them in a theater. It has definitely helped me from going "ape" on my neighbor and maintaining the last bit of sanity I have.The only downfalls to these headphones are that every now and then, there is a funky gurgling noise that interrupts the sound. I believe it has to do with the wireless connection but it goes away rather quickly (lasts about 30 seconds). This happens even when I'm sitting still in my recliner and the transmitter is some 5 feet away. Last, the headphones do fit very tight and are a bit heavy. I don't recommend wearing them when you are doing things around the house/room, like cleaning or making food, because you will get tired of them being on your head. I only wear mine when I'm watching television positioned on the couch or in my recliner while relaxing. They are fine. The ipod feature I never use because if I wanted to listen to my ipod, I'd just wear my normal headphones and walk around my apartment with it in my hand.Overall, I would definitely recommend these if you share walls with anyone and you want to enjoy your electronic devices peacefully.
