Simply put...the best wireless speakers I've ever tried, great sound quality, above average battery life. The setup is way too easy and reception quality is great up to 50 meters, then the signal wears down.
I use them near my grill and they give me up to 6 hours at a decent volume (if you crank it up to 11 the battery life is up to 4 hours).
In a nutshell, if you have an outdoor grill and enjoy hassle free music, this is a must buy Item.
Hopefully this helps. |

I have been very impressed so far with these speakers. They have more bass than I would have thought they would but I expected almost none. The battery life on them has been great and there is even a little red light that tells you they are needing a recharge. They look good, nice size and shape.
I have had a little interference here and there but find that you just need to move the speakers a few inches or a few feet. I have lots of other wireless in the house. 2 cell phones, 1 cordless phone, a pair of Seihauser rs 130 headsets, ATT Uverse with WIFI. And they are all in the same area so I thought I might have to move something but so far, so good.
The only down sides: The range does not seem great, about the same as my Seinheisers which is about 70-80 feet. They do go further but not consistent when you get beyond 80 feet, they both dont work well in the farthest room from the antennae. They do "work" but can cut in and out a bit unless you find the right spot, which is easier with these that my wireless headsets as they hard to keep from moving (I don't sit still) but the speakers you usually set in one spot. Also, I agree with other reviewers that the volume controls would be better with a visual indicator of how loud they are but this is really being nit-picky.
I love them, they are SUPER cool and I seriously don't think you can find anything else as good for the price. Have realistic expectations and you will be very happy with these. |
Found what I was looking for..

| I have been searching for RECHARGEABLE wireless speakers for a while. I like to relax in a part of my yard with no electricity and I didn't want battery-operated speakers and I didn't want to spend too much (I know, a lot to ask). These speakers are better that I hoped. I use them with my PC music collection - I just found that I needed to place the receiver as far as possible from my wireless router - the sound was very clear and the rechargeable batteries lasted approx. 5 hours with a decent sound level. They seem sturdy enough and very transportable. Follow the instruction label placed on the box and you will save a lot of aggravation (you are not sure whether they are charging or not if you don't read it). I am very pleased for the money. |
Works as expected

Bought this to use on my laptop to play music in the living room of my apartment when guests visit. Also bought to add enhanced sound to my telelvision wirelessly. I love this system but there are certain improvements that can still make it better. I have wireless internet and cordless phones in my apartment. I have not noticed any interference with my 6GHz phone but if you place the transmitter near the wireless router you will get some mild interference. Speakers charge well and battery life is very good..at least 5 hours on mid volume. Each speaker has its own volume setting controls and also has the option of streaming L or R channel or both. All the necessary cables are included: 3.5mm and RCA.
So here are the improvements that I would have liked.
1) It would have been great if there was a remote control that could control each speaker volume individually. Sadly there isn't. You can control volume from the transmitter, your computer or in some cases your tv, but a remore would've been best. A display showing the volume level on each speaker would've been nice too.
2) It would've been nice if the transmitter could be battery operated as well for more portablility, but it has to be plugged in
3) It would be nice to be able to buy a second transmitter or have it included, so that I can have one connected to my tv and one connected to my laptop at the same time..instead of having to move this one back and forth
All in all it was a good purchase, The signal quality is impressive, goes through walls easily. Lack of remote control was a bit of a downer. Would still recommend it, as I could not find any rechargeable wireless speakers around this price anywhere else. |

Speakers are very small, think computer speakers. The sound is less than impressive. Even maxed out (ipod and speakers both) it was still very hard to hear (and we were inside). Would not recommend.
I ended up with the Brookstone Wireless Speaker, [...] and love it. |
Still evaluating...

| These speakers seem to be charging and working, so that is a good sign. I will wait to post a more thorough review... |
