What's great about it: Steers easily. Strong suction. Long accessory wand.
What's not so great: Stowage rollers don't lock. Heavy.
First thing you will not like is moving it around... the transport rollers don't lock in place. they are engaged and disengaged by a harsh jerking motion that seems completely out of place on such an expensive appliance. while rolling it across different level surfaces, the jarring of the unit can easily cause the transport rollers to drop when you don't want them to, resulting in the entire vacuum head slapping the floor in a very uncelebratory bang. i feel like i'm breaking it everytime it happens, so i end up picking it up and delicately carrying it around. i don't want my baby to get hurt! that's when the higher than average weight becomes a nuisance. in all other respects, it's a superb machine. too bad i have to store it, cuz that part is a pain.
This product is or has... An easy to change bag, Enough suction that a single-pass does the job, Right length hose, Useful tools, Great for stairs, easy to empty, Difficult to change bag, A great pet hair picker upper, Long enough cord, Allergy filtration does the job

What's great about it: Nothing beats being able to have a pair of speakers anywhere you want
What's not so great: Sound quality and power is below average
I'm not using this for rear surround speakers, i'm using it to monitor whats on tv while i'm in my kitchen. For my application, its a thing of beauty. It's neither powerful nor great sounding, but the setup took 10 minutes from opening the box to adjusting the volume. It's about 60 ft away and the signal goes thru a wall. I had my doubts that something so affordable would work so well, but it really does what it says. There is not an automatic shut-off, but i doubt the tiny amplifier unit is much of a current hog.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My RF-WHTIB wireless rear speaker system just stopped working after only a few months. Why? And what can I do to reboot it?

is there a slow blinking red light on both units? if so, here's what you do:
there is a small link button on both the receiver and the transmitter. hold it down and the light will begin to flash rapidly. do this on both units and they will attempt to pair (like xbox 360 controllers). when the lights turn solid red, they are paired. try moving them closer together if they don't pair.

Connect two transmitters to the same stereo output from the AV receiver

Wanted to see if wiring two transmitters in parallel to a single output channel of an AV receiver would cause impedance issues? Also, if this is possible and would not cause any power drops to the input side of the transmitters, does this pose a risk to controlling expected volume on the receiver/speaker end for both sets of speakers? I wanted to take a single zone of an Denon AVR-X4000 and wire two transmitters in parallel to have two separate areas of sound coverage outside my home.
it will not cause an impedance issue, because the transmitter is a highly resistive load. it does not want power, it just wants signal, so the AC impedance seen by the receiver is very high. you could run a dozen of them off a single channel and the receiver will hardly notice. the speakers will sound the same as before.

Do you need to use the 2 foot speaker cable supplied with the system to make the system work

nope, any cheapo speaker cable will work. doesn't need to be thick bcuz it doesn't carry any current, just signal (like RCA's).
