Sennheiser TR 120 Headphones

Hello. We're having a new Direct TV Genie Receiver Box installed in a few days. Will it be compatible with our older Sennheiser TR 120 Headphones that plug into the old receiver box via RCA jacks? Thank you.

The only Genie that had RCA outputs was the HR34 if that is what you had then a new HR44/54 Genie will need the composite 10 pin din cable to get the RCA stereo outputs needed.  The tech may have it on the truck so ask for it, if not then DTV may send you one or you can buy one online.

Hello. I'm not sure which Genie is arriving on Monday with the technician, but my husband is very concerned his headphones won't be compatible. I'll look into ordering the composite 10 pin din cable. Thank you!

They both need it and if it happens to be the HS17 Genie2 then it will have to be connected to the mini as the HS17 has no output jacks

The technician brought the Genie HR44 and the headphone jacks plugged right into the back of the unit. Its all resolved. Thank you!
