Sennheiser's New RS275 TV Wireless Headphones: The Perfect Solution for Night Owls and Those with Hearing Issues
Are you tired of your partner sleeping through your favorite TV shows? Or perhaps you're an avid reader who wants to enjoy a book without disturbing others? Sennheiser's new RS275 TV wireless headphones bundle might just be the answer. With easy controls, a range of connectivity options, and on-demand customization, these headphones are designed to let you watch and listen to the TV, even if your partner is asleep.
The bundle includes Sennheiser's ultralight HDR 275 TV wireless headphones and the compact BTA1 digital transmitter hub. With support for Auracast and LC3 Bluetooth codec, the bundle provides ultra-low latency audio that's perfectly synchronized at a range of up to 50 meters. The HDR 275 headphones can connect with other Auracast or Bluetooth Classic devices such as tablets and smartphones, enabling audio to be streamed from a favorite app.
The system offers a choice of audio inputs, has intelligent multi-source switching, and multipoint capability for connecting with two Bluetooth devices simultaneously. The RS275 bundle includes the HDR 275 TV headphones, compact BTA1 digital transmitter unit, and a headphone stand.
Sennheiser's senior product manager, Irene Strueber, says, 'As screens continue to get thinner, their speakers have to follow, making it harder than ever to enjoy full-range sound without disturbing others. The RS 275 TV Headphones unlock total listening privacy and impressive clarity, whether your TV's built-in speakers are underwhelming you or overpowering everyone else.'
The RS 275 kit can be up and running in a matter of minutes, and the settings can be personalized using the Sennheiser's free Smart Control Plus app, which is available for Android and iOS devices. The app can be used to tailor features like transparency mode, left-right balance, hearing profiles, device-type audio modes, finding lost headphones, and more.
The HDR 275 TV headphones are lightweight and have ear cushions that are designed to keep the wearer's ears cool, thanks to the use of a breathable fabric that also creates a snug fit. Large and textured buttons on the headphones offer tactile control of the volume levels and also function as a power switch and taking incoming calls from a smartphone.
A single charge of the HDR 275 TV’s battery can provide up to 50 hours of listening time. The charge can be topped up using the USB-C port on the transmitter hub or you can use almost any USB-C charger. The BTA1 TV Transmitter can harness Auracast to beam wireless audio to any Auracast-compatible devices around the home like headphones, earbuds, hearing aids, and loudspeakers that support the standard.
The BTA1 transmitter has both optical and 3.5mm inputs for connecting older TVs, stereo systems, laptops, and gaming consoles. For most people, the HDMI ARC input will be the input they use to connect TVs or A/V receivers. The BTA1 is powered from a USB Type A port, such as the one on your TV or domestic power charger.
The Sennheiser RS 275 TV Headphones bundle will be available for pre-order from February 3, 2026, with a recommended price of $299.95 / £219.99 / €249.90 via authorized dealers or sennheiser-hearing.com. The BTA1 TV Transmitter will also be available to buy as a standalone product and is priced at $129.95 / £114.99 / €129.90. The system will also be available without a headphone stand as a retail exclusive. All versions will begin shipping from February 17, 2026.
