Whether it is much better than the 130's is a perception thing since I can't at the same time be hearing both. If I had found an issue with the sound quality of the 130's, then the 180's would have solved it. But regular pop or rock tunes work just fine, same goes for video games and movies, and that's good enough for me. Straight forward setup, great sound!
It is for these two reasons that I was curious to see if Sennheiser had a solution to the line out idea. I called Sennheiser and spoke to someone who said that the 180's do have this feature.
That said, contrary to how these headphones are described on Amazon, these headphones DON'T have "dynamic surround sound." I wish they did and I wonder why they don't, as the lower-level Model RS 170 headphones have surround sound.
We partially solved that by putting a small foam pad on the on/off button (thus separating the volume buttons). But why should we have had to invent a solution? They just take some getting used to. All things considered, I highly recommend them. I would definitely recommend these. Negatives: Our most major complaint is the design of the controls.
I couldn't be happier with these headphones. Zero background noise. So, to adjust the volume or balance, I've typically needed to remove the headphones to find and work the buttons. That can become a bit annoying after a while.
I haven't encountered any interference to the headphone system caused by other appliances (wireless telephones and Wi-Fi) in my house. Nor have I encountered any interference to the other appliances caused by the headphone system. These are perfectly comfortable for extended periods; though I find I usually never have them on for more than a couple hours. Sometimes I just let them hang around my neck instead of putting them down; convenient.
Sound: These are the best headphones I've ever heard, though all my past headphones were $20 so that isn't a very helpful is it? Despite not having a trained ear, I'll try describing the audio as best as possible. I found that the bass had a decent punch, and was very clean. Past headphones I've used tend to have a muddy/blurry bass compared with the RS180. I listen to classical music mostly (90%) along with a bit of rock music and others (10%). To me, it took about 20 hours of listening to break in. I will experiment with them soon and update this review. Range can severely suffer if you start walking around corners or have too much between the headphones and the transmitter.

It sounds like a radio on low volume. Also these Auvio wireless headphones came broken. wifi headphones. Amazing frequency response brings out the bass in the music without having to sacrifice the mid and high range. It does not make a difference on the sound. wireless headphones for computer.
