Are there any wireless headphones available that are
anwhere close to Hi-Fi? My speakers are Monitor Audio
RX6s and my Amp is a NAD 355BEE. I mainly listen to
classical
Sennheiser RS140. Highly recommended

I have a pair, and they are IMO marginal for people with normal hearing
due to their marginal dynamic range.
From the reference above:
68 dBA
68 dB A weighted is kinda vinyl-like.
8dB better than vinly. 66 dB (A weighted) would be a
SNR twice that of vinyl. You not find many commercial
CDs with a dynamic range 70dB. And none 80dB
AFAIK.
It's easy to hook these up so that the dynamic range
is even worse - use the supplied headphone jack adaptor.
Both the mini jack ad the 1/4 adapter seem to be of
good quality. The dealer from whom I bought the
Sennheisers asked if I wanted the mini jack replaced
with a TRS. This wss done while I waited at no cost.
The OP should take a listen to the RS140s, and
decide for himself. Anyone who makes recordings
of the standard to which Arny works, can hardly be
regarded as judge of quaity:-)
