An amazing value for the price. Set-up is super easy (five minutes) and it performs exactly the way it's suppose to. My equipment is in a closet and the transmit/reception is perfect.

Sure they work. Sure you can move your subs anywhere in the room. Sure they change from "Red" to "Blue" when connected but every now and then the cause your woofer to thump for no reason when the sound changes. I can do without that. So no thanks.

WORKS GREAT ...NOW!! if you bought this and ended with the dreaded popping issue, please read below. If not ENJOY!!.. this does work just need to add additional troubleshooting tips. I had this SAME ISSUE and hated the popping! My fix was easy and came after trying several things. Most suggestions are to move things around (listened to all the line of sight comments, avoid other devices, moved them closer together etc), I even bought RFI filtered power strips to avoid any noise coming directly from a wall plug. Didn't do it. FINAL ANSWER IS ! If your sub has only a L/R plug and no direct sub line, then you MUST match it on the receiver end as well ! Even though my receiver has a direct sub line for some reason when I used adapters (not included) on both ends matching L/R. The popping stopped, even at super low TV sound (mainly dialogue w/no action) which was my biggest pet peeve. It would kick on/off like crazy. Mind you the wireless will still shut off the sub after about 15 seconds if no activity but you wont notice it. Afterwards I moved everything back to my original setup, over 15 ft away, no line of sight, everything tucked away and hidden. Works great! Hope its not to late!! or maybe revisit with this approach. Best of luck!

In the interest of full disclosure I returned mine...although the reason I returned it may have been an issue of my particular AVR and not the Rocketfish unit...detailed below. I bought the Rocketfish wireless subwoofer unit as we have a large room, wanted the sub at the opposite end from the surround receiver, and running the wiring properly posed issues due to one of the walls and access below. It was very easy to set up...basically make RCA and power connections for both sender and then receiver, the led color changes to indicate that its paired and you are good to go! Truly that easy. I did have a couple issues however: 1-There is a bit of a delay but I was able to compensate by adjusting the distance/delay settings on my Denon AVR (set sub distance 'greater' and AVR therefore reduces the surround delay which will compensate for the little bit of wireless lag in the RF sender/receiver). 2- The unit would kick in and out of sending signal at lower volumes. If I ran at higher volume it was fine, but at lower to moderate volume it was on/off, on/off. I tried various setting adjustments on the Denon and was not able to get it to be consistent at lower volumes. Like I said, I cant say for sure it was the unit and not my receiver. I dont have clipping w/ sub wired direct, but the receiver may not have been pushing enough power at lower volume for the RF to send? It does go into standby, but that's only supposed to be after a period of inactivity and the led on the RF was staying steady 'On'.. I would not recommend against buying. The RF certainly couldn't make it any easier to get a sub installed without having to run wiring and once adjusted it was great at mid-high volume...just wish I could have gotten the lower end clipping figured out!

I have a whole house audio system and wanted to add a subwoofer in my hearth room / kitchen area, but a wired solution wasn't an option. I used this product to get signal to the subwoofer wirelessly. I plugged the transmitter into the amp/receiver for the whole house system in my audio closet, and plugged the other end into the subwoofer (one floor apart), and it worked perfectly. Just like that. Have been enjoying deep, rich music with no issues ever since. I saw others reviews about needing to resync the devices but I haven't had to that once. I was also concerned there might be a delay and cause things to sound terrible but there's no delay at all and the bass makes the music sound so much better. For the price and simplicity, this is an excellent option.

I've had this product for about 3 days now and at this time I've come across no issues. Prior to purchasing this item I read a good amount of reviews and none of the reviews good or bad listed their equipment setup so others can make an educated purchase. So I'll list mine: 1. Receiver and transmitter are roughly 11 feet a part. Neither are enclosed in anything and are within the same room. 2. There are two RF units within 1 foot or less away from the transmitter: A Roku Ultra and a Denon receiver model AVR-S740H. There are no RF units near the receiver (the closest units are near the transmitter). 3. I purchased this product to give flexibility in placement of my sub a Klipsch R-120SW. My 4 star rating is only due to the fact that I have only owned this product for a few days. I'll update my rating once I've had it in my home for a few months.

I needed to move my subs to another spot in the living room and didn't want to run wires. So I got this cause of the reviews and the price. It worked for me right out of the box, easy set up. My only problem is there is a slight delay I need to address, but nothing too serious. Overall great product!

Very affordable alternative to convert wired subwoofer to wireless. Sound quality and transmission is good and very easy to set up. Only recommendation I would have for the manufacturer is to make the cord that plugs into the receiver longer for better placement options on top of AV cabinet.

I use this on a daily basis and love having the freedom of placing my subwoofer where ever i want too. The only down side is when I don't have the sound bar up very high it shuts off the the amp. but when i turn the volume back up it comes back on! Overall a solid device!

Work pretty good when it's just not practical to run wire. Nothing is going to compare to an actually wired connection but this product does a great job when you can't. Occasionally will drop signal but for the most part performs well.

I did spend lot of time on internet looking for wireless sub woofer transmitter. This was very simple to set and works great. It pairs quickly when ever you start music. I have about 15 ft length and no walls in between, it works perfectly.

I purchased this unit with caution as some reviewers had issues. I have to say this works perfectly. I needed to move my subwoofer to the back of the room and did not want to have a wire running around the room. I have this wireless kit running in the same room with a rocketfish wireless rear speaker kit and my home network router and there is no interference. I have a high end subwoofer and only use high end cables so I was very hesitant about using a wireless kit. However using the supplied cable from my audio receiver to the sub transmitter and a high quality cable from the sub receiver to the subwoofer, the sound is the same as with cables. I would definitely recommend this unit.

Works, bought as open box which was $45 . Makes it a e relative bargain to the likes of Klipsch's wa-2 @ $129. However it continually drops conections at lower volumes. I have cross over set at 80hz and level at 11 on my Onkyo NR646.

It's a story that's been told a million times before. Surround sound setup is almost perfect. The only hurdles are visible cables making it a no-go for the aesthetically minded or the space is such that you have to put the sub somewhere out of the way. This is what fixes that problem for you. Solid wireless connection, good sound reproduction. Would it be nice if it were cheaper? Sure. Is it worth it at this price? ABSOLUTELY

My AV equipment is behind a wall and I was not pleased with the bass levels I was able to achieve through the wall/door at the highest volume setting on the subwoofer. I wanted to have a wireless solution to be able to move the subwoofer out in the open but still have it in an inconspicuous area. This product made the task super simple. It was set up in less than 5 minutes and I have to turn the volume on the subwoofer way down now as the sound is powerful. The subwoofer is only about 8 feet from the AV closet, so the transmitter and receiver are not too far apart, but as mentioned, it is through a wall/door. Very happy with the purchase.

The units are light and the included cables cheap and short, but after a bit of tweaking this item gave me the confidence to remove the existing cable which was running across a doorway under a rubber cable cover. I set the subwoofer distance in the AV receiver to 45 feet rather than the actual 10 feet and then the audio was in sync. When I left the subwoofer levels where they were with the cable, the transmitter was slow to respond and sometimes never kicked in.I incrementally increased the level until the transmitter fired up immediately and since then, 1 month in, all has been golden

The only issue I have with this is that it loses pairing 1-2 times a day. It's an easy one button fix, but annoying nonetheless. Sound quality is great and setup was a breeze.

Added a second subwoofer and dreaded running wire in such a way my better half would not notice. Gave this nifty product a try and it worked like champ. Had a problem early on with it losing connection but when I got the reciever off the floor and put it on the same plain as the transmitter the problem was resolved and has never returned. Sound quality is as good to my esrs as the sub that is hard wired. The operating distance from transmitter to the reciever at the sub is about 26' with a large sofa blocking the signal.

I really wanted this to work. The sound was decent enough but periodically the sub made a thump noise . I researched it and found others have issues with wireless speakers Tried moving the transmitter and receiver around but no change. I read some that when you watch a program that has no lower sub channel active , it goes to sleep and makes a power up kinda thump sound. Really wanted it to work but got tired of the thumps. Ended up using a long sub cable and hid it.

Works great for adding a second subwoofer without all the wires. Easy to setup. Only down side is you have to reconnect your box after the receiver has been shut off.
