 OUTSTANDING!!!! October 5, 2008
LOVE THIS SPEAKER!!!!! I've owned different wireless speakers for years and they finally needed replacing. I tried several different sets but was not pleased until I tried the Acoustic Research AW822. It sounds great with its 5" woofer, it has excellent range. Also very pleased with the styling as it blends into the landscape. Buy some rechargeable c cell batteries (they charge while installed by just plugging the speaker into ac power) and eliminate the cord altogether! (Note: AW822 is not sold as a set so you'll need to buy two for stereo)
Good for the money September 29, 2008
The sound quality was very good, even with only one speaker. There is a little static every once in a while when you have it near the outer edge of its range. I would recommend this product if you're looking for a portable speaker with multiple sources.
Amazing for the price September 28, 2008
I purchased these speakers for my husband's birthday based on the reviews I read here. Not difficult at all to set up and the sound is quite good. The receiver is not close to the speaker location, but there have been no problems with either cable or CD reception. A little more hassle to adjust sound, turn off, etc. than indoor sound system, but that is all run by remote. Recommended, especially for such a reasonable price.
Great speakers for outdoor, wireless and great sound! September 23, 2008
I have used two as stereo speakers (one right and one left) on my deck several times this summer. They have great sound quality and range for such a reasonable price. I have also purchased C size NiMH Rechargeable batteries with 5000 mAh. They have played for three hours before I shut them off without recharge. Amazing! You plug the AC adapted in and they recharge automatically. The instructions don't address recharge time so I charged for 8 hours. I am very pleased.
 Just OK September 21, 2008
I needed a wireless speaker to put near my 89 year old mother's bedside in a nursing home. No wires allowed. This device was very easy to hookup to her Toshiba HDTV.
The quality of construction and the packaging is excellent.
Unfortunately, the quality of the sound is poor with the frequency response very restricted - just doesn't sound "natural". Out of fairness, this could be the audio coming out of the Toshiba headphone jack - I'll have to bring my headphones to check that out. As of now, I certainly wouldn't recommend this speaker for connection to a home theater or high quality sound system.
