OK, so the design of the main room in the house we bought would have made it darn near impossible -- or at the very least really inconvenient -- to run wires for surround sound... and this solution seemed like an inexpensive option. Thus far it has worked flawlessly and we even picked up a second unit for use at my mother's house.
This sound quality of this unit probably not as great as running wires directly, or opting for a unit that costs a whole lot more, but hey... it has worked well thus far and hopefully will continue to do so.
What's great about it: Good Value & Easy to Set Up
What's not so great: Some May Consider Receiver Bulky

Bought this product in August 2013 strictly for my rear surround speakers. Had the product installed and mounted in less than 25 minutes. Sound tested several HD channels with Dolby Digital and it works perfect. Connected to Pandora/Netflix and volume tested it with no issues. Plays loud and strong. No interference from my wireless network like some reviews.
Go to Amazon for a good review on the difference between CD/MP3 sound versus surround sound. The instructions included don't explain the difference in sound between different audio sources. For someone who doesn't want to run wires, this is the best solution I've found for the money. Make sure you spend a few extra dollars to get the insurance.

I moved to an apartment recently and I still wanted surround sound but there was not good way to run wires to the back of the room. I also didn't want to have to buy new speakers when I already have a good 6 speaker system (L, R, Center, SubWoofer, and surround pair). RocketFish had the perfect solution. It was easy to set up and the sound from the rear speakers is good. I'm glad that there is a volume adjustment for the rear speakers, but I had to turn it to maximum volume to get a balanced output from the rear. I'm satisfied, but I was a little surprised that the point of balance was at or near the maximum volume rather than closer to the middle of the volume range.

What's great about it: Eliminates the need to run wires for rear surround speakers.
What's not so great: Had to turn rear volume all the way up to get balanced sound.

Bought this so I wouldn't have to run wires across the floor to hook up my rear surrounds. Sits about 20' from front speakers and works great. Certainly not for the die hard audiophiles but for home theater you will be hard pressed to tell that your rears aren't wired. Only issue I had was that the speaker terminals aren't big enough for large gauge speaker wire. They do provide some small gauge in the box so not a big deal.
