Excellent wireless small room January 9, 2009
WEM works well as a wireless device but cannot expect the sound from the use of a wired system. The system works well in provinding those extra speakers in the master bedroom(20x15) with out triping over wires and without too much ghost signal interference. When I expand the distance between the WEM transmitter and receiver there seems to be an increase in signal noise.For critical listening and home theatre the the hard wired sound room is used.
Effective Unit - Works Well! December 10, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this once it first came out and I've been pleased. It works effectively to expand your listening area wirelessly between zones or even between 5.1 and 7.1 setups.
I use this across my house - a house that is also set up with a wireless network for my computers as well as both cordless and cellular phones. The interference from these units is minimal, if present at all. Surprisingly, I find the most interference from either myself or others walking past it. Wierd. Though, there are 4 channels available to sync the transmitter and receiver seamlessly (or close to it).
The sound is great. It has a built in 50W amplifier and provides crisp sounds. The subwoofer output allows you to make this mini system a sharp 2.1 surround sound system. Note - use a non LFE sub (or just bypass the LFE option on your sub) since the receiver has its own volume input.
Obviously, the best results are for when you connect an outside music source to the receiver via the mini-jack input. If this is your sole reason to use this product, you don't even need to hook up the transmitter at all. Though, to fully enjoy this product, you should.
I have it hooked up to a 7.1 receiver with 2 zone capability. It works fine and I'm very happy with it. The built in amp definitely helps the performance.
