First post..long time onlooker
I've been looking to buy a decent wireless headphones to use to my TV and found this deal at The Good Guys - Philips SHC5100
At $49 I think this is a bargain for a quality wireless headphones (based on positive reviews). This is currently priced at most of the stores for $99.
Offer ends 26th Nov.
I got the dual pair of these a few years back. There's sometimes a bit of background buzz/interference. But they work a treat for watching TV at night/when the kids are around.
Bought a pair as a gift a few years back and while not the worst I've heard (these cheapies earn that distinction), they were still quite poor - well below any 'decent' wireless headphones I've owned. $49 is what they're worth at most, IMO.
Would buy if it had headphone Jack. Without it, I will pass.
I buy this before for $99 (2 years ago) at JB Hifi, and it has a background noise (buzz). I think it is because the wireless technology it use, which is RF. I end up returning it, and change to Sony one at the same price. The Sony one does not has background noise, and much better sound quality. I think, it is because the infrared wireless technology, so no background noise, but you can not use it out of sign of the base station. So running to the kitchen to get some snack end up, got sound cut off.
So IMO, this Philip wireless headphone does not even worth the $49 price
Seems a very good price. Do I really need them though?
