THIS IS AN EXCELLENT PRODUCT. WE WERE GOING TO HAVE THE HOUSE WIRED FOR SPEAKERS, BUT FOUND THAT IT IS NOW NOT NECESSARY. SAVED US A LOT OF MONEY.
Had this set of speakers for close to a year now. They do come with power cord to plug each speaker into AC. They really are nothing special for the price. ONE problem is when running them on battery the signal seems to drift (if you lock in a signal at all). I have outside wiring so this is no trouble. TWO if you walk between the transmitter and the speeakers the music cuts out.If you plan to buy these and run them on battery alone, and mounting them in a high traffic area (I mounted mine high above head level), DON'T PURCHASE THEM.
I'm shopping around for wireless speakers to use in a conference room at work so that I can pull in a few folks attending by teleconference.I'm sorry, but I just don't think there's any way I could set this up on my conference table without some of my colleagues having to work very hard to conceal a grin, or even a snicker.The problem, to put it delicately, is that the antenna is, well, er, it's um, kinda. WELL, JUST LOOK AT IT. A possible distraction.
I bought this product as a gift for some friends - following the directions carefully, they were only able to get one of the speakers to work and that intermittantly - after I got the speaker system back from them, I gave it a try - bad results, worse this time - only static from one speaker - I double checked to make sure that I had installed everything correctly including making sure that the correct power adapters were attached to the speakers - no go - and, then, when I went to return it to the company from whom I bought it in Canada, I got the royal run around - finally after lots of phone calls and mail issues (don't get me started on "customs" issues) I returned the product and got the price of the speakers back - however, no refund on shipping either way which amounted to about $89 total - so. two things: [1] the product is shabby and not worth the price (go to Sharper Image and buy theirs - better product, cheaper price) and [2] never buy anything from Amazon.com that is not from an American supplier.
I spent a lot of time trying to get them to work (going to Radio Shack) and finally returned them The replacement was EXACTLY the same problem. The transmitter light when connected to the Transmitter adapter and then plugged into the power will not stay on. It fades out and then nothing is possible. There will not be a third time. Bad Bad Bad.
