Only at Best BuyEnjoy vibrant CD-quality audio with this Rocketfish~ RF-WHTIB wireless rear speaker kit, which features a wireless range up to 100' for clear transmission. Multiple placement options allow flexible use.

The Rocketfish wireless system works as advertised.
It's easy to set up and with my rear surround speakers the sound quality is good. You can wall mount the receiver/amplifier, which I did behind a lounge chair, so it's out of the way. The only problem is that the slots used in wall mounting require the unit to face downward, would have been nice to have multiple slots configured so you can mount it in the direction desired.
The cable connections on both the transmitter and receiver/amp are of the push type. 16 gauge wire fits fine, and maybe even 14 guage would work. Since a long run of wire probably won't be required, this shouldn't be an issue.
The only other thing that is an issue (a small one) is that the transmitter either has to be on all the time, or you have to turn it on each time. The way it is, if you plug it into a switched outlet on your systems receiver, when you turn your system reciever off, the Rocketfish turns off and even when you turn your system receiver back on, it remains off. You have to turn it on separately each time you turn your receiver on.

What's great about it: Works as advertised, easy to set up, good sound
What's not so great: Either have to leave on all the time, or turn on each time
I would recommend this to a friend!
