Both the receivers for RS 160 and RS 170 come with a closed, circumaural design. Both models also use similar leatherette ear pads. Hence, you shouldn't feel any (or much) difference in terms of comfort. Hope this helps!
Hi Rosmadi,
You seem familar with the RS160, RS170 & RS180. I am thinking of getting one of these.
I am presently using HDR45 which is RF. It is open dynamic as I understand.
I am looking for one that does not disturb my partner who sleeps next to me while I watch TV programmes. I do not listen to HiFi but just TV programmes, movies, music concerts and documentaries.
I isten at rather low levels and at night for 4 to 5 hours at a stretch.
I need your advice on the above 3 systems.
RS170 is close and I understad hot with the leatherette fabric and sound bounces inside. What I understand is it a choice for my needs and requirments
RS180 is Open dynamic and most people say because of it , it is comfortable especially with Velor fabric and sound does not bounce inside. In view that I am presently using HDR45 without much problem in terms of disturbing my sleeping partner, will the RS180 be louder than than HDR45 is I liste at similar level.
Relatively it is cheaper to buy from Germany from Amazon.de but I am yet to check the shipment charges.
Do you think thoseSennheisers for the German market with their signals which are different then USA, be also different then SIngapore such that if I buy from Germany I will not be able to use them ??
Appreciate your kind advice..
Thank you.
