 Not worth $10 April 18, 2010

I did not buy this, I was given it. Wow - this product is so bad, don't waste your money!
I did not try it using 6 C batteries because plugged in via AC, it sounded awful.
Pros.
* LOOKS nice
* Design LOOKS like it would be useful.
* Appealing appearance
Cons
* Volume: low max volume level (plugged in).
* Sound quality: Line in: Poor! (sound is clipped?);
* Sound quality: Remote Xmitter: AWFUL (VERY HIGH STATIC & unUSABLE).
I will not be using this.
 I love this! December 7, 2009

I came to this site because my mother wants to give me this speaker for a Christmas present ( I do the leg work, she buys the present). You see I gave her this very same portable speaker system the previous Christmas and we have found it to be everything we've hoped. Yes, it takes a lot of batteries, but it comes with adaptors, which still makes it portable, and the batteries are fine for backup when you don't have an outlet.
My mother's home is not big -- a one bedroom condo- but it gives her the freedom to carry her music ( and a tv speaker) to her bathroom, her bedroom, and her patio. My only thought would be if I paid the full retail price suggested, I would examine other options- but for this price, I think it is well worth it.
Way too much static August 29, 2009

We bought two of these and tried them out, Initially we had one unit on the A/C adapter close to the plug and got nothing but static. We moved them nto a different room and away from the plug and god some music but the static never went away and was always heard, even when the transmitter was right next to the speaker. When I moved the transmitter into another room the static increased measurably.
We will take them back.
The only wireless speakers we have found that actually work well are the Acoustic Research AW822, which AR has decided to discontinue. Boo on them.
Unmitigated Disaster August 24, 2009
Allan M. Gathercoal (Norcross, GA)
What a serious disappointment this speaker system is: horrible static, poor reception coverage (30' feet, maybe), bad, cheep sounding sound reproduction and a hassle to set up. To make this unit fully mobile you need 8 alkaline D batteries (think $16) and 6 alkaline AAA batteries (think $12)... did I mention the static? Overwhelming... anyone, with a ear for good clean sound would return this, this, this ... well, you get the point. Not recommended at any price.
As bad as it gets June 16, 2009

Just like another review. I've plugged it in every which way that I can and not a sound..except for static at one point. The instructions are as near nothing as you can get, so who knows if I'm even connecting it correctly. I had Pod Speakers from Brookstone which were great, but the transmitter went out and they no longer sell them so I was trying to get someting to replace them for music around the pool. It won't be this piece of junk...it goes back tomorrow.
