I sold off my Onkyo 3400 and I was thinking of buying a MARANTZ NR1504 and probably a 2.0/2.1 speaker setup coz then I would not have to worry about setting up the rear speakers. But if I think rationally then this would not be a wise buy either as I hardly switched on the Onkyo even once a month.
The advantage of going with a headphone then are twofold. One I can listen to anything at the volume I want without disturbing others and second the audio clarity of a headphone can only be beaten by speakers which are multiple times their cost.
A wireless headphone will also give me the freedom of listening without making others play hop-skip-jump and me worrying about where and how far to sit. The Sennheiser RS series will also let me connect two headphones (when I buy the other unit) to one base unit. Helps to watch TV at different volumes with someone else at home.
So with all that I mind I have narrowed down to the RS 175 and this ebay listing http://www.ebay.in/itm/261978036513 looks pretty good. I just need your blessings and support or comments and suggestions to make my next audio purchase without any apprehensions.
What say?
