For $100, you really can't beat this product -- I have a new Sony HTIB system, and hooked the rear speakers up with this system, and I'm very impressed with the sound -- before I hooked both the left and rear surround channels to the wireless system, I just hooked the right rear to the wireless rocketfish system and left the left rear "wired" to the sony to compare the two sides -- the "wired" side was a little louder, but when I adjusted the sound levels to match, I couldn't really tell (with 5.1 programming and music) which was wired and which was wireless.
** When you shut the AV system off, and the Rocket fish sending unit and receving unit are still on, there is a low level "humm" from the rear channels ** Apparently, after reading up online about this issue, Rocketfish has resolved this issue by incorporating some resistors into the 2 foot cables that connect the AV receiver to the Rocketfish sending/transmitting unit. Apparently, those who've already received and implemented these wires are very satisfied with the decrease and/or abscence of the humm. I called the 1-800 helpline in the manual for this product, told them about my humm, and the guy had NO idea what I was talking about -- he wanted me to send them the entire unit or return it for a new one at Best Buy -- I told them NO WAY .. it took too much time to move my furniture and wire this thing up, I wanted the "corporate fix" I"ve read about online -- so he had a corporate agent call me back 1 week later and she stated that I too would receive these updated cables to fix my problem. We'll see when they get here, but either way, the humm is so low that you really have to put your ear up to the speakers to hear it.
Also, I have a Belkin wireless-G router and so far, NO interference or loss of signal after 1 week of constant use of both the rocketfish and the wireless internet which is all in the same room.
Give it a shot, there's a 30 day return policy, no restocking fee, you can't go wrong if you have a few extra hours this weekend to calibrate it and play around with it.
What's great about it: No wires running across the floorboards; Sounds very very good
What's not so great: Buzzing/Humming after you shut your AV receiver off -- solved by company, though
I would recommend this to a friend!
