"Not bad...could be better" on by magicat777
Pros: Decent range, easy to setup, price
Cons: echo, distortion, range, remote
Summary: I bought this a few months ago from Best Buy and have had the chance to move this all over my apartment. It has a decent range and will work through walls...though not well. I had to experiment with placement to get a good strong signal.
I have it currently placed about 70' away (through two brick walls) from the transmitter in another room and I get pretty clear sound. Occasionally it will fade or breakup if there are a lot of people in either room. On a whole, it was pretty easy to set up for putting a spare speakers into another room.
If you are looking for sound quality, I'd look elsewhere. Otherwise, it was a great product. -
"additional info" on by Jpell70
Pros: the devices uses 2.4 GHz
Cons: unknown - I have not tried the product
Summary: I am considering buying this product so my rating is bogus, I'm just adding info. I called Rocketfish and was told that this device uses the 2.4 GHz frequecy to send the signal.
Updated
"...chips operate in the 2.4GHz band, the same one used by most household appliances. However, the chips use a proprietary wireless transmission standard. The standard has a small spectrum footprint and can use up to 40 different channels in the spectrum. This lets the chips dynamically elect channels not being used by other devices and cut down interference." -
"Got rid of the long, rear speaker wires" on by joem94547
Pros: No more unsightly wires and no wire routing
Cons: Not much power
Summary: I wish the rear amp had more power since my receiver puts out 100W to the rear, but otherwise I've never had any pops from my rear speakers. I have a HTIB Onkyo setup. The rear speakers will hum a little bit if you have the stereo off and leave the receiver/rear amp on, but I always turn mine off when I'm not using it. Great sound for movies, but not for audiophiles.

"Ehh It's Ok" on by theonlybuster
Pros: Limits Wires, easy to set up
Cons: Random pops, not made for anyone with OCD, the sound never gets "perfect"
Summary: This is a decent in-home system if you can set this up relatively close to your speakers. The biggest problem was the random pops and a speaker randomly not working. This is really just a pass type of item.
In other words, this item isn't worth it unless you can set it up close to your sound system, or you have a small empty room. -
"Excellent speakers!" on by soapytoo
Pros: Nice looking, clean lines, easy to set up
Cons: No cons. I like these speakers!
Summary: I took these speakers out of the box. Plugged the sender into my computer (because I wanted to hear steaming music) and the speakers into wall sockets.
One speaker goes into my office and the other into the family room.
I pressed the sender button (on the sender unit) and the receiver button on each of the speakers to start the communication. I then went to steaming music on my computer at Jones college radio, at http://wktz.jones.edu. This station plays beautiful music (elevator stuff) that I like in the background. Can't find this kind of music on any station on my radio, so I was forced to use streaming music from Jacksonville, Florida.
The speakers worked as they said they would. These speakers are absolutely great! I am VERY happy with them and I would recommend these to anyone. I was thinking of getting another pair just because they are so great!
