    Sennheiser RS220 Availability?

    HI, I'm sure there are newer threads for the Sennheiser RS220 now, but I've posted here before, so:   I went to a shop in Portland, Oregon called 32 Ohm Audio and demoed a number of high-end wired headphones.   This will undoubtedly get me burned at the stake, but I didn't hear enough of...

    GiacomoHoldini, You sir are a posting monster! I do hope you're gonna be able to get a pair of these soon after all your commentary. I see you're in Portland; I'm actually down in Corvallis (Oregon, USA.) For all those suffering with dropouts, etc., my sympathies. I wonder if there might be a...

    Sennheiser RS220 Availability?

    Hello again re. the Sennheiser RS 220 wireless headphones.   First some relatively minor dissatisfactions, then continued goodness:    I'm actually kind of coming to despise my RS 220 headphones ever so slightly because of fit and comfort issues. The headband has two rectangular pads of...

    Sennheiser RS220 Availability?

    betavince,   Zone 2 does output analog AirPlay / HMG, but without the ability to control volume or listening modes. It looks like this may be your only option with the Pioneer VSX-1021-K receiver. Please disregard what I suggested might be possible with the other analog outputs on your...

    Sennheiser RS220 Availability?

    betavince,   The RS 220 comes with a 3.5mm to 2) RCA jack adapter. However, instead of the headphone jack in the front of the receiver, I'm suggesting you might be able to use one of the three pairs of RCA analog output jacks on the back panel of your receiver. Please see my previous post...

    Sennheiser RS220 Availability?

    Betavince: re. Pioneer AirPlay receivers, so far I have been able to use the digital optical audio output on my VSX-1121-K to listen to tracks off a USB drive plugged into the front of the receiver, but I haven't been able to get this to work with AirPlay. Your VSX-1021-K does not appear to have...

    RS 220 received this morning. Thanks for the tip on SoundEarphones.com, Jeff. $1.99 for overnight delivery. Preliminary non-audiophile report: sounds damn good to me. My source setup is not dialed in yet, but I have played a variety of music file formats, resolutions and styles of music. 96/24...

    Sennheiser RS220 Availability?

    I had these in a shopping cart at Best Buy last month, and had to go to a holiday dinner, and they were gone when I got back to the computer. I went ahead and ordered a pair of RS 220s from SoundEarphones just now. I just couldn't wait. I'll probably be kicking myself tomorrow when they're $150...
