Our take on the Sony RF912RK Wireless RF Headphones

The Sony RF912RK is an over-ear wireless headphone set built for TV listening, not for phones. It uses a 915.5–916.5 MHz RF base station instead of Bluetooth, so audio reaches up to 45 m through walls and stays in sync with the picture. A 40 mm driver covers 20–20,000 Hz, and a built-in mic plus a volume remote let you take calls and adjust levels from the couch. The battery runs up to 13 hours and takes about 7 hours to recharge. At $17.99 at Walmart as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range, well under the $50–$80 this model has typically sold for.
