I'll start by saying that I read almost every review available for this unit before purchasing and what I decided is that I need to buy it for myself to really make my own conclusions. (remember that you can always return it if you don't like it)
My system consists of the following....
(Fronts) Klipsch RP-280fa
(Center) Klipsch RP-450ca
(Rears) MartinLogan Motion 4's
(Receiver) Marantz SR-6011
(Center) Klipsch RP-450ca
(Rears) MartinLogan Motion 4's
(Receiver) Marantz SR-6011
I have to admit that I wasn't expecting much from this wireless kit as it's only putting out 30 Watts into 4ohms which is nothing to get excited about but since this unit is meant for the rear speakers, it is acceptable in a small to medium sized room (mine is 16x13).
After all the cabIes were hooked up, I made sure the wireless receiver and wireless sender were within viewing distance of each other and setting the volume on the rear wireless receiver at Max. Then I ran the Audyssey EQ calibration on my receiver and was surprised to see that it worked perfectly. You don't need to have a calibrator on your receiver for this unit to work as it is a plug and play system.
Once the calibration was complete, I used Mad Max: Fury Road (dolby atmos) to demo the setup. I wish I could say it was amazing but my rears lacked the low end that can be provided by a more powerful amp but the highs were present and were allowed to shine. Now given the size of my room, I am not even using a subwoofer as my towers have dual 8" woofers so the bass is more than enough to make up for what I may be lacking in the rear.
Some important things to note....
1. Follow the directions exactly as they are explained in the instruction manual.
2. Understand that if you do not have a dual band wireless router then you may experience interruption and delays in either your speakers or your wireless speeds to your devices ie. smart phone, tablets, media players etc. I have all my devices connected to 5ghz and let this unit take over the 2.4ghz so that I am assured no issues.

As long as you are not expecting audiophile performance, I can happily recommend this system to anyone that is looking to go wireless.
I'll say it again.....you can read all the reviews there are but you won't really know until try it yourself.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Silicone Watch Band for Apple Watch ® 42mm - Black
Change up your look with this sport band for the Apple Watch. It resists sweat and moisture, so it stays pristine day after day, and the black color makes it simple to match your style with your watch. Designed specifically for the 42mm Apple Watch, this sport band attaches easily.
Excellent Band

I purchased this band without even trying it on first as it was so cheap that I wouldn't care if it didn't meet my expectations. Surprisingly though it exceeded them.
This Band is almost identical to the OEM Apple band in both design and comfort. I hardly ever notice that it's on my wrist when Im not looking at it and I can wear it all day without any discomfort.
You seriously can't go wrong with this band for price point and I highly recommend it to anyone that doesn't have a sport band yet.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Magnolia Design Center installed new components to my existing home theater system. I am not satisfied with the surround sound settings on the Marantz SR7012 receiver. Is this a service the Geek Squad can handle?
If you ran audyssey properly then you should be getting a good surround sound. There’s more to it than just your receiver. Speaker placement and room acoustic treatment will have a big impact on sound. The SR7012 is an excellent AV receiver. Trying looking at YouTube videos for running Audyssey.

I have this wireless kit for about 4 years and i always hear the popping sounds on the rear speakers, any reason why it's been doing this?
It could probably be that your wireless route is not dual band and is only 2.4ghz. This caused by the fact that your rocketfish system is 2.4ghz and and so is your router which can cause signal interruptions resulting in the popping sound you are hearing in your speakers.
