    Great addition

    These are true, wireless speakers. They also allowed me to operate my stereo from my phone which was convenient. However the sound does 'break up' if you walk between the speaker and the transmitting head unit. The sound is ok and hooking them up took about 4 calls to Yamaha's support team. So they are not easy to install but worth it for true, wireless sound.

    Sound is great

    I returned this product because I purchased them to go along with my Yamaha receiver but it didn't work with Dolby Atmos. The sound alone was great but I feel you can find better options and price for a portable speaker. I use the Sonos eco system and it's great.

    Decent wireless speakers

    Would have preferred Sonos speakers but all in all I am happy with the sound. I have to work on the positioning of the speakers to maximize the sound quality. But is nice to have my turntable on my wireless system now so I cannot complain.

    Multi Functional

    The sound set up as stereo is pretty good but ultimately will be using them as rear surround speakers with my receiver. All good and very flexible

    Decent for streaming, but not for other sources

    I bought this in conjunction with another shaker and the pre-amplifier unit. My desire was to avoid having to put in ceiling speakers throughout the house. My main use was to be able to broadcast all sources throughout the house. I.e. phono, cassette, FM radio, 8 track, etc. However there is such a delay between my main wired speakers and these wireless speakers that it rendered then useless for me. The cost is about equal, so im going the in ceiling speaker route. Additionally, the streaming hiccups from time to time. Overall, not a fan and would not recommend.

Questions & Answers

  • Are these sold in pairs ore individual?

    This comes in 1 speaker.

    Answered by CommunityAnswer
  • Can you use it without internet to tune into local FM radio stations? For example, in Kingston, Jamaica where internet connection is not very reliable.

    For these speakers, and all Musiccast speakers, you need a Yamaha receiver with musicCast capability. If you have thjs, the musiccast app allows you to run any source including AM/FM from it tuner to these speakers. You will need a wireless router in your home for the Yamaha receiver to connect with. The speakers also connect to this WiFi router. If yor tuner in or connected to a yamaha amp ir receiver with musiccast hears an over the air FM broadcast, these speakers should still receive the FM broadcast even if you have a very poor internet connetion, This is because that traffic is intranet (just inside the house). The further the speakers and/or yamaha receiver are from the router the better router you will need. Only MusicCast speakers will operate over WiFi to the Yamaha receiver. They are controlled by the MusicCzst app on your phone or tablet that is also connected to tge WiFi router (no need for good internet excel to download the app). Many Yamaha receivers can send any source of sound to any Bluetooth speaker once you pair them and keep them within Bluetooth range. That is controlled by settings on the receiver itself. That setting is not accessible with that Musiccast app. Hope this helps.
