Sounds Great - Not a lot of range [Posted on 2007-01-09] Sounds Great - Not a lot of range. The sound you get from this one speaker is incredible. Set it on the floor, close to a wall, and it almost sounds as good as a Bose Wave Radio.
But... you can't go as far as I feel the documentation leads you to believe. In the real world, the most range I was able to get was about 50-60 feet in and around the house.
Dead on Arrival [Posted on 2007-01-24] This product was Dead on Arrival.
No amount of messing with cables or
adapters or settings would get it to work.
At least I got a full refund from Amazon...
Nice speaker system [Posted on 2007-05-27] Easy to set up, and works well. Terrific sound for such a small speaker (amazing in fact). Can be a bit touchy to tune in, and can be sensitive to people moving (resulting is static) but I'm nit picking here--for what I use it for (a satellite speaker for my wife to use in the kitchen) it's great.
Wish the "on/volume" knob was a bit further away from the "tuner" knob (sometimes you end up turning the wrong one) but again, nit-picking.
I'd certainly buy this product again (or buy a second if I needed one).
no good! [Posted on 2008-03-25] very poor sound quality. It barely works. lots of static. I had to install hard wired outdoor speakers. I have bought items from Amazon before and this one is not a keeper.
good sound, limited range. [Posted on 2008-04-05] The sound from the unit is descent given the size and construction. The wireless system, however is pretty bad. In an urban area you might be able to get 20', but even then you'll get periodic interference. In a more rural setting it becomes moderately usable, with more like 40' and fewer blasts of junk.
