sharktooth Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Being a considerate neighbour but also like the late night and early morning live football, I'm looking for a pair of these. Has anyone "definitely" seen them for sale in Chiang Mai? If so, where? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taotoo Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I've got a cheap pair of Phillips from Tesco - 1,500 baht I think. Wouldn't recommend them as they're overly heavy, have no bass, and reception is an issue. No doubt expensive ones are better, but if doing it again I'd buy cheap wired headphones and replace the wire with one that is both long and soft/flexible.

iainiain101 Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Found a set of two with 5 metre wire to be far more reliable / lighter. Bought at Robinson for less than a thousand baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSure Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 I have some that are getting a bit older (5 years ?) but they are excellent. They are Sony model TMR IF245R. The base unit of course is plugged into the wall and is the sending unit as well as the charger. The phones have a volume control that's independent from the TV speakers. I can turn the volume down on the TV and still turn it up on the phones. Obviously the base plugs into the TV with 2 jacks and also into wall power. I don't know if it matters and I'm not an expert on such things but they are infrared by design. Not knowing much about such things I simply bought the brand and wasn't disappointed. Cheers.

stuartd1 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 There's a new headphone shop next to the Rimping near Airport Plaza. Good selection and easy parking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharktooth Posted December 26, 2015 Author Share Posted December 26, 2015 There's a new headphone shop next to the Rimping near Airport Plaza. Good selection and easy parking. Thanks for that. Went there today but only had the one pair at 6,000. Found a pair in Powerbuy instead slightly cheaper. Job done for the football tonight / this morning.

Bluetooth works far better. But as you said, you can't really beat a long wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
