" ... These headphones are really good for the money - easy to set uo & the sound quality is better then I get from the TV - sometimes there is a little static but I adjust the volume and or tone & that fixes it - Now I can watch late night TV without annoying my daughter & don't have to keep the volume so low that I can't hear it - Totally recommend these headphones !!! ...
