Price Paid:  $80.00 from crutchfield.com

Summary:
This is a single wireless speaker that transmits/receives in the 900mhz range. I wanted it for places (garage, patio, and yes, even the bathroom) where I didn't have audio readily available. The transmitter has an RCA mini-jack input that can go wherever you'd plug in headphones (PC, CD player, receiver, etc.). It requires AC power, adapter is included. Both the transmitter and receiver/speaker have a frequency adjustment wheel that you use to tune in the signal - very straightforward. The speaker also has a power/volume knob. This is just what I was looking for. Its sound isn't going to set the audiophile world on fire but that's not its goal. Functionally, it does the job that it's supposed to do. I recommend this product.

Strengths:
Setup, volume, adjustable frequency. Speaker powered by AC adapter (provided) or batteries (eight "C"s).

Weaknesses:
Maybe a little bass-heavy. May conflict with your 900mhz cordless phone, just as with any 900mhz product.

Similar Products Used:
None.
