I have bought a pair of Sony wireless MDR-RF810RK, and after five to ten minutes of listening ,the transmission fails and the light switches off. If I switch on again it recommences for some minutes... Is it because it is near a wireless router and TV Box? What can I do?

Hello!
I must inform you that most of the wireless headphones has an automatic shut-off which puts it in stand-by when there is no sound going in to it. Or if the sounds in your device is too quiet the headphones will think you have finished using it.

What you need to do is increase the volume setting of your device. And turn the volume control on the headphones down then as well - assuming that your headphone base unit is connected to the headphone socket of your device.

Go to the sound icon and right click and press Playback Devices, cick your headphones then properties then advanced and then turn up the sampling rate all the way 24 bit, 192000hz.

Also make sure your batteries are good and windows sound is turned all the way up and lower down on the physical headset.... this took me months to figure out!

Str-d1090 sony no sound to center speaker

Yes, electronic components fail with time: switches, especially capacitors, there can be dust or corrosion acting upon connections; really a multitude of age related problems CAN occur. (Not necessarily but can.) The problem becomes cost vs. benefit for repairing and another unit of that age is probably an inexpensive fix.

Sony MDR-RF4000K wireless headphones

Probably a bit late for the original poster, but just in case anyone else comes across this....

I also have the Sony MDR-RF4000K wireless headphones and the problem with the sound cutting out has got steadily worse over time, to the point where I felt like throwing them away. I replaced the batteries (use normal rechargeable AAs with a bit of card to trip the little switch that would normally be tripped by the Sony battery pack), however that had no effect on the problem.

After a little research I have established that the power on the headphones themselves is triggered by a pull switch in the right ear cup. When you put the headphones on, the padded headband is stretched and pulls the switch up, turning the headphones on. The headphones have always been a little big on me, and I can imagine that the headband has stretched permanently in the last few years, probably leading to the switch on being more marginal.

At any rate, although I don't have a fix, I now know that if the sound cuts out, I don't need to take the headphones off - just pull the headband up slightly on the right-hand side, or push the headphones as a whole down a bit, again on the right-hand side.

Lookfor a light on the dash that says SECURITY or ANTITHEFT. If you see this light, that is a sign of a failed or failing antitheft system, which will disable your vehicle. This link explains

Hello! I have Sony MDR-RF800R wireless stereo hea...

Hi there. I had the same problem after a while of having them packed and unused! Try this: Hard clean the batteries connectors with alcohol or some other cleaning fluid (I don't remember which one I've used). It solved my problem and now they charge fine and even with the expiration date of the batteries expired they are still working but I mean working very very well. Hope this helped though somewhat late reply... Might help other users too!

When i plug my headphone in my computer to listen to music it works however if the wire turns the slightest bit i lose the sound can u help me out plz

sounds like a loose wire from maybe trying to overextend the allowable distance (cord stretching). alot of times its easier to buy a new pair instead of fixxing. Take the old pair apart if your interested in where the break is. could be easy as a little sawder gun fix.
