I enjoy it. on radio

Headset arrived early and well packaged. It had excellent reception on AM talk stations as I live 50 miles from where it originated. I had one before and it was exactly the same. It's easy to set up channel buttons and I get good life from AA batteries.

Pros
  • Wireless design with dual adjustable headband
Cons
  • Damaged

Dickens hurts to wear

A few years ago I had a lighter weight Sony that I used to go jogging in every day. This headset is heavy, uncomfortable, difficult to use while running and just plain uncomfortable. To be honest I was really surprised at how clumsy it was. Sorry but this is a big disappointment. I wish I could return it but I don't think I can.

Pros
  • Rugged waterproof stereo headphones with radio
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Sony is the best Sony has bought in years.

I had an old Sony Walkman, I needed a new one, I couldn't find it in any electronics store here in Columbus. In fact, there is no headset anywhere with headphones, with AM, FM radio. I searched the internet for a Sony headset with AM, FM radio and found a refurbished one. It's great that a new one costs so much. I had to go to Sony for the instructions, I WAS ABLE TO DOWNLOAD THE INSTRUCTIONS. The headset has excellent reception, very clear and strong enough. Works perfectly.

Pros
  • Drift free digital synthesizer tuning
Cons
  • Alright

Not as pictured! Used yes, one side (right) .

Not what it promises! Used yes, one side (right) never worked, broken on/off button, no ear pads! I contacted Revain for a refund, the representative told me not to return and started the refund process. Rec. $57.90 refund notice dated 09/13/17. Still no refund on my Visa account on October 1st 2017! Please note that most radios now support digital transmission, so the old player will not work as originally intended! I found out about this by contacting Sony. I am waiting for a refund, can you…

Pros
  • Powerful speakers ensure high-quality sound
Cons

Vintage, hard to find.

THANKS TO THE PERSON WHO SOLD THIS TO ME. Time for history! My dad had (read, had) the original Sony SRFHM55 when it came out many, many years ago. Due to the wear and tear of being worn to every football game and sporting event that allowed FM radio broadcasts, it broke at a football game last year and sulked for the rest of the game. He loved his headset and there is nothing like it on the market. It's all about the headphones, and he's not a fan of headphones. So I scoured the web looking…

Pros
  • Built-in digital clock and battery indicator
Cons
  • No instructions
