I got these headphones as a gift to be usedwith my laptop to listen to long sessions of lectures when I study for tests and to use it with my TV when I'm up late so I don't wake up my fiancee. I was also hoping I use these for gaming but after trying them out for a day I'm convinced that I need to exchange these. I cannot overstate how important the connectivity issues are to me. I'm no audiophile but the hiss on these phones is annoying and the sound quality is not good but the biggest issue by far is that the (bulky) charging station MUST be plugged into an outlet and be plugged into the audio source. This makes it very impractical if you move from room to room with your laptop like I do during long sessions. You can't use these headphones when traveling because there is no outlet. Even if I connect these to my TV, I have to leave the set up right next to the TV when I'd rather have the charger next to the couch. In short, these headphones are anything but versatile. I'd have to unplug the whole get up, carry the dock and headphones to the next room/source and plug everything back in. Would be much better with a small adapter.
On the plus side, the charging is very easy and nice. You just put the speakers back in their tray and they begin recharging.
This is a marriage-saver! My wife couldn't sleep with TV blaring out at night (I am slightly hard of hearing). So I saw these at a friend's house and liked them so much that I bought them as a wedding anniversary gift to my wife... so that she can sleep away while I watch recorded Jon Stewart shows.
Headphones haven't run out of batteries yet, I have watched shows for long periods, some times over 2 days without recharging. Good quality abound, these headphones are just as good as any other Sony product. (My family actually still owns the 19" Sony TV that we bought way back in 1981!)
One improvement that I would suggest is for Sony engineering to reduce the annoying light crackling noise heard when I adjust my head on the pillow; it is inherent of the plastic parts too close to my ears but a little modification, perhaps the rubbing parts should be made from a different material or a couple of 'O' rings at the right location, etc., would go a long way.
All in all, these headphones are great for your loved ones' comfort, not to mention your own... these headphones are light weight and cofortable around ears. It goes without saying that one gets full effect of sound quality, all controlled through volume-control wheel right below your right ear lobe.
