Before I bought this product, I had said to my friend, I wish there was some gadget that I could connect right to the speaker output terminals of my AV receiver to connect my rear speakers instead of having to run wires either throught my attic or my crawlspace, but I doubt such a thing exists. After checking a number of online stores, I was thrilled to find BestBuy had this kit. As I mentioned earlier, it was a very quick and simple set-up (took less than 10 minutes.) It connected and worked right out of the box exactly as I hoped it would. In my living room, the sender and receiver units are only seven feet apart, so I can't comment on the distance issue - at 7' there is no problem whatsoever. I do not notice any sound 'lag' due to the time the wireless signal takes to reach and be processed by the rear amp/speakers. As others mentioned, it would be nice if the receiving unit sensed that the sending unit was powered on and off so that I don't need to turn it on and off separately - but, this is only a very minor issue. The sound quality is really good and I believe this product was well-worth the price.
What's great about it: Quick and easy to set-up right out of the box.
What's not so great: Could be a little more powerful, 25 watts/channel is ok for rear speakers, but 50/chan but be a lot better.

Very good product; easy to install and use. The only complaint I have, albeit it a minor one is that I wish that there were receivers to attach to the surround-sound speakers, so that I don't have wires running across the walls. Having said that, the end result in sound is terrific!
What's great about it: Easy to install.
What's not so great: Having to run cables from the receiver to the speakers.

Sends music to remote speakers a good 50 feet away. Works reliably and well. Replaced a prior version that worked for over 5 years with 8-10 hours of usage every day.

I am so happy we no longer have to run cords throughout the house to make all of our rear speakers work properly. We definitely think this is worth the money if you have a small living room like ours.
The only downside is that sometimes if you're sitting close to the speakers and you're doing something on your cell, you may hear a small pop. It's not loud, it doesn't scare, it's just a mild annoyance if you're one of those people like my husband. I don't mind it though because it doesn't happen too often and I usually drown it out.
But we're avid video gamers and movie buffs, and we absolutely love that our rear speakers now work properly with this baby.
