Kleer, the company behind some of the world’s
best-sounding wireless audio devices, today announced that Sennheiser RS
170 and 180 headphones have won the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show
Innovations Design and Engineering Award. Based on the Kleer(TM) KLR 3012
wireless audio transmission technology, Sennheiser’s RS 170 and 180
headphones deliver unmatched audio quality for a wide variety of home audio
applications including music, TV and home theater use. Together, Kleer and
Sennheiser have been delivering some of the most advanced wireless audio
equipment on the market for several years covering multiple generations of
high quality products.
The Innovations Design and Engineering Award is presented once a year in
recognition of the most innovative consumer electronics products. An
interdisciplinary jury made up of engineers and technical journalists chose
the RS 170 and RS 180 this year because of their unparalleled advanced
technology, innovative designs and incredible sound quality.
“When it comes to wireless transmission technology we are always looking
for the perfect solution, and so once again, we have chosen Kleer wireless
audio technology for our new RS wireless headphones,” says Maurice Quarr,
Head of Product Management Consumer Electronics at Sennheiser. “With
Kleer’s digital radio transmission, which works without compression and
therefore without any loss of audio quality, we can offer our customers
wireless earphones without compromising the outstanding Sennheiser sound.”
The RS 170 and RS 180 digital wireless headphones for home stereo systems
deliver high-resolution, movie-theater-quality audio via uncompressed
wireless transmission using the Kleer KLR 3012 wireless audio module. The
RS 170 features a dynamic bass boost and switchable surround sound — a
must-have for any home theater set-up. The open-back RS 180 is designed for
the audiophile: settings like speech intelligibility and balance can be
precisely adjusted for the ultimate listening experience
