What's great about it: Good price, small units
What's not so great: Not sensitive enough
I bought this item with a sub-woofer and I had my A/V receiver auto calibrate the addition of the sub (sub gain at max). The wireless receiver unit is about fifteen feet straight line distance from the wireless sender unit with a clear line of sight between the two (other than an occasional person walking between them). My units were constantly dropping their connection even when nothing has physically changed about the room. After doing some messing around with the speaker settings on my A/V receiver I discovered the signal coming out of the A/V receiver was too weak causing the wireless sender unit to go into standby mode. I maxed out the output level for the sub on my A/V receiver and turned the gain down on the sub and I haven't had a problem since. Rocketfish needs to make these units more sensitive to the audio signal to avoid such problems. Other than the setup issue this is a great product when it's quirk is figured out.
This product has... Right size for my space, Good build quality
About me... practical, Audiophile, Tech savvy
I would recommend this to a friend!

Will this work with a 15 year old Kenwood Sub?

It'll work with any powered sub-woofer with a RCA input.

Try turning up the sub-woofers output level on your A/V receiver (I set mine to the max level and lowered the gain on my sub to suit my taste). These units aren't sensitive enough to detect all incoming signals only those of a certain level.
