 Great for bad hearing November 24, 2008
Purchased this item a few weeks ago. Extremely satisfied, will probably buy and additional one for a friend. The room I have my Tv in is large with vaulted ceilings, and I am probably 20 feet away from the set. I found that I had to turn the tv sound up all the way to hear certain programs. With the Acoustic Research speakers, I can now place them to the right and left of where I sit and hear the tv in stero, it is fantastic. I love them. Easy to set up, just plug them in. Works great, would highly recommend.
 Not bad... November 23, 2008
For functionality... they are not bad. The only problem that we seem to encounter is usually at least once a day, the speakers will go totally static and really loud. Our only hope is that there are no customers in the store at the time. We still have not been able to figure out why.
Tremendous Value and Performance November 15, 2008
I have been looking for an inexpensive solution to get music and internet radio in several rooms throughout my home. I didn't want to go through the hassle of running wires and all that stuff, so I settled on the Logitech Squeezebox Duet and these Acoustic Research wireless speakers. The two units perform flawlessly together! Because these speakers can be operated in mono or stereo mode (switch on the back) I am able to place one upstairs in my bathroom, and the other one on an end table in my living room.
I am really impressed by the range and clarity of these speakers. I have had wireless speakers in the past and the static was always apparent. Not only do these speakers have ZERO interference, but there's no manual adjustment required for tuning! They automatically tune themselves and the results are crystal clear.
Be sure to turn up the volume of the audio source you are feeding these speakers or the receiver will not turn on! I thought my receiver was defective, until I turned the volume up on my Squeezebox Duet receiver then it popped right on.
These really are great speakers, and they are bigger than they look on this website!
Not bad, could be better though November 14, 2008
I've had these things for a week now. I bought these things in hopes to have wireless surround speakers. Unfortunately my A/V receiver does not have any RCA outs for these speakers. There is a way around this problem however. A line out converter (LOC). It allows you to run wire to the rear speakers on the receiver and then plug the RCA's into the LOC. The problem with this quality suffers. I keep getting "pops" and distortion at times when there is the slightest interference to the transmitter. I am not sure if its the speakers, LOC, or the transmitter (or all of them combined) but the pop happens about every 30 seconds or so. My guess it is my LOC causing the popping noise since I had them hooked up in the traditional sense and had no problems.
These speakers do work very well when they are used for alternate room speakers. However, I would not recommend using these for rear surround sound speakers unless you spring for a really nice LOC ($50 or so).
 twice is enough November 1, 2008
I bought these speakers the first time and set them up and everything worked great, except one speaker did not work. Returned the whole thing and received a replacement and the transmitter did not work. I give up. Not worth the hassle.
