These are great - at this price, I may have to get a 2nd set for the bedroom.
They aren't flawless, but they are very comfortable and have really good sound and range. I can go all over an 1,800' house and get good reception (the transmitter is in a far corner).
If your A/V setup allows, connect these to a line out instead of a headphone jack. My receiver has a record out that bypasses the volume control, which is perfect for this application; you can just mute the receiver and still have full volume from the headphones themselves.
I did try the Sony models and these are more comfortable for long-term listening. I have no problem sitting through a 3-hour flick with these on.

But how's the sound quality? Presumably they limit bandwidth to pull of the wireless aspect.

You will hear some "hess" sound sometime, but over all this is a high quality headphone. And it is rechargeable too, even though the battery come with it are just regular batteries.
