I was factoring-in surround sound features, but I've decided that if I want proper surround (short of a speaker set-up),
then I'll find the best dedicated adapter and use it with some wired cans.

So I was wondering what everyone's preferences are in-terms of the best sounding (stereo) wireless cans on the market?
I would expect it'd be a toss-up between these two kleer-based set-ups:

1) Sleek Audio SA6 IEM + W-1 kleer wireless adapter
2) Sennheiser RS 180 open circumaural headphones

I'd love to hear from those that disagree/agree & can speak from experience.
Let me know if you feel something else should be in the short-list.

Seasons well wishes,
-J.

Wireless headphones does not sound like High-End to me...

Well that was predictable...
I am interested in talking about high-end for wireless, I realise there's no comparison to corded, as per the laws of physics.

I have the Sennheiser rs 180 and think they are awesome. i have little or nothing to compare with but they have put my German Maestro gmp 8.35d out of action since i got them as the gmp 8.35d where a little to much on the bright side imo. The senn. need some burnin to sound good tough. 50-100hours min. I am playing with the thought of trading the gmp for senn. mx-w1 but i am little low on cash right now so it will have to wait. The sleek wireless is not completly wireless though it is wired between the earphones and that is a dealbreaker for me.

I settled on RS-180 too, best wireless option there is for now...
And I've pondered in-depth, just some threads for those who may have reservations.
