In the run up to this years final season we see the end story taking shape, great season and highly underrated across the board. Crisp HD transfers and typical packaging at this price point. Buy it.

you either love the show or you don't, great transfers, excellent sound, reasonable price for a whole season. And you can binge right through instead of waiting week to week for your local PBS affiliate to broadcast eps.

You either love Halo or your don't, the remasters are top notch and the mutliplayer bugs are getting squashed pretty quickly. Money well spent for fans of the series.

of the big two consoles. The slight difference in power is irrelevant, the Xbox One simply has better and more exclusives. I sold my PS4 to go back to Xbox One and have zero regrets.

I've tried several wireless headsets and anything in the 900 (or lower) mhz ranges are susceptible to interference from all kinds of sources. This can lead to anything from lower sound quality to an audible hiss to pops/clicks/drop outs. So before I gave up I tried these, hoping getting up into the busy but 'smarter' 2.4 ghz range would fix a lot of the interference issues. I'm glad to say, it did. Haven't had any issues with interference and they sound better than any other set I have tried. They are more expensive but well worth it. Great sound, clarity, range and ease of use. Also fairly comfortable and reasonably light weight.

but cannot cope with any interference. Save yourself some money and time and check out units in the 2.4ghz bands, they are a bit more expensive but overall sound much better.

Judge Dredd finally gets his due at the movies. Great flick, sharp BD transfer, middling 3D effects. Don't buy this to rationalize your 3D TV, but worth owning. Karl Urban is awesome as usual.

How do I eliminate the constant, loud hum from the headphones?

There is a constant, loud hum through the headphones that I cannot eliminate. I have followed all the troubleshooting guidelines including changing the radio frequency with the channel selector switch and then using the Auto Tuning button. The transmitter is plugged into the speaker output jack (marked 8 ohms) on my LG TV. There is no jack marked "headphones". The TV does not allow me to adjust the volume coming through the speaker output jack and is very loud when using regular wired headphones. If this is the problem, is there a solution?
You can try changing the channel on the base station, but if that doesn't work you'll probably need to return them and get something that sends/receives in the 2.4ghz range. The 900mhz range this model uses is incredibly crowded and susceptible to interference.
