Hi Guys,

I bought these to use with my (electric) guitar practice about 6 months ago. God knows, people need to be saved from the din I make, but unfortunately, the wireless signal picked up so much hum/rubbish/noise from the guitar (presumably), that it was a non-starter. They made me sound even worse than I already am - :lol:

Hence, they are now up for grabs. They are as new, with the outer packaging as new and intact. The inside cardboard separators are not included as I could not for the life of me get them to fit in the way they were originally installed.

The phones cost me $118, although I understand you can get them a bit cheaper now. I'll be happy to take $45 plus postage - about $10. A pair of AAA size Batteries for the headphones is included, - so they'll only travel by road

They are literally as new. Been worn just once for about 30 seconds, then back in the box.

Enquiries by PM please - thanks for looking :thumbsup:

Do they exhibit the hum if you plug them into another source, like an iPod?

If they work okay from another source, I will take them.

Peter,

thanks for the reply and interest.

I'm out for most of today, but I did try them briefly plugged into a TV just to check that the rubbish was to do with the guitar/amp, and they worked fine.

But I will check them using, specifically, an ipod later today and get back to you on that later today if that's ok.

Cheers

Hi Peter,

I got in an hour or so ago and have tested the phones. I've only charged the batteries for an hour before testing, and now that I read the manual, it says they should really be charged for 16 hours when completely flat - as they are right now.

The phones work fine as is, - but when I walk under a fluoro light they pick up a little hiss which was perceptible over the music. But I noticed that when I move just even a little away from fluoro tube lights, the sound quality was as you'd expect it to be.

I'll leave them charging for a few hours and see if there are any changes happening when operating with fully charged batteries. How does that sound?

Cheers :thumbsup:

Hi Peter,

after an overnight charge, the difference is perceptible. The music heard from an iphone is clear and strong. If I go and put my ear, with the headphones on, next to a light switch, I pick up hum/noise. But otherwise they are fine. It's important to have the transmitter pointing generally towards you, but I walked around a huge room with no loss of signal quality.

How does all that sound Peter? :)
