Acoustic Research - 900MHz Wireless Indoor/Outdoor Speaker (each)

If you ever wanted to listen to music while grilling outside, washing the car, working in the garage, pulling weeds in the garden or for hosting a party out on your patio or deck, then this is the perfect product for those type of environments. I purchased the speakers for use on our patio and in our garage. The transmitter is about 60-100 feet away from the speaker at any given time. The unit is easy to install and connect to existing equipment and I love the portability of this product! We live in a highly populated area and the speaker is perfect for the patio because it does not disturb the neighbors that surround us. The sound quality is clear and we have not had any interference with other electrical or wireless devices. We have operated our cell phones and wireless devices near the speaker to test the sound quality and it did not effect the performance. I recommend that consumers give this product a try and I believe they will be pleasantly surprised. I am very happy with this product as well as with its performance.

Not sure what others are doing wrong, but mine worked just fine. I agree that the transmitter isn't the most attractive, but I hide mine behind a candle holder center piece and you can't even see it. Worked fine transmitting into my back yard and into my upstairs bedroom. Sound isn't primo but very good for a $100 system. The omni-directional speaker is very cool to use a single unit for a whole room or to put in the middle of a group of us sitting in a circle. I have been pretty happy with it. I am going back to get a second speaker unit to expand the system.

I purchased this speaker for our tv in the living room, also to use outside on the deck. Just to inform you when we shut off the tv, the transmitter will shut off automatic, then the speaker will give a very load static noise and squeal. I had shut the speaker off with the power button provided, but it turns itself back on. We had to unplug this. I did call the manufacturer about this and they said you must unplug the speaker, when not in use. I have never heard of such a thing. Well anyway, after having to crawl over and move furniture a few nights this product is being returned because of the inconvenice. To old for moving and crawling over things to shut it off. This company that made this product needs to revise this issue real quick. It is to bad other wish it has nice sound.

Worked right out of the box without a hassle. I have a Bose home entertainment system so the quality is being compared against that system but this cost 1/10 the price. I use it in my sunroom and deck and do not try to emulate a rock concert with blasting sound.

The speaker died after about 4 months. It wouldn't even turn on. SInce it was still in warranty, I tried visiting the company website. The website directs you to an AMAZON store! I called Acoustic Research, their parent company Audiovox, and even some thrid-party named AB Tech that Audiovox referred me. All pointed the finger at the other companies and did not solve my problem. I really wish I could giv e this product 0 stars in all categories, because all I have now is a piece of trash.

We received this item as a birthday gift and love it. It's easy to use, portable, has decent sound and is definitely water-proof. We were working in the yard enjoying a football game when rain came out of nowhere. This speaker was one of the last things to make it in the garage and no problem... it survived the rain. I agree with another person who rated this item... we also hid the receiver behind a picture frame, so no problems here. Clarity isn't like a Bose system but there wasn't any static and our house is surrounded by trees so you would think reception wouldn't be decent here. We love the versatility of it.

The only reason I purchased this wireless speaker was to add a little bass to my 32"LCD TV. I knew the speakers in my tv were cheap and this speaker works just find. Of course this is not one of your top of the line speakers but it adds just enough bass to overcome the poor quality speakers in my tv. The tv remote control volume also controls the volume of the wireless speaker which is very convient. Or if you move the speaker any where else, you can control the volume from the unit itself. This is a great wireless speaker for the money.

I bought these speakers to be use by our pool. This product works great outdoors and replaced the small radio we use to use. There are no wires, I can move it anywhere near the pool and listen to my music. The only inconvenience is having batteries on hand. I am going to invest in rechargable batteries so that I don't have to keep replacing them. Over all it is a good product for what it was designed for - portable outdoor speakers.
