Great for the time they were produced. They work as expected. Sound is good but do get some interference sometimes if plugin wires aren't stretched out but otherwise they work okay. Use them to listen to computer in other rooms.

There is nothing negative to be said about the speakers or their functionality. The problem with these speaker is that you must physically turn each one on/off as needed by going to the speaker. Now consider this, You want to play music through the speakers wirelessly. You must turn each speaker on by going to each one which could be 300 feet away from where the cd player sits. Bad engineering. You should be able to power on the speakers wirelessly and they should power off (sleep) when not in use. So, there you have it. I cannot use these speakers because I don't want them to be on all the time (no sleep mode) and I don't want to turn them on manually. Shop carefully. Shop very carefully

I bought this unit to have a romatic evening plan for my wife. Unfortunately I bought pairs (4 speakers) of USED item with some problem; however, I had 2 good speakers. I bought two other AW brand wireless speakers. AW-871 is much better sound with really nice base sound. Sounds can be much better controlled and higher volume than all OTHER wireless speakers that CAN OPERATE on D/C battery. AW-871 speakers are much heavier than other and no place to hook for hanging. But sound is much more important than appearance of combinient. I give much HIGHER rating than ALL other Wireless speakers that can operate on D/C power.
Love the AW-871 wireless speakers, I have them hooked up to the tv in the sunroom so the wife and I can listen at the sound levels that we like. I also take one or both out on the patio and play music through the tv or listen to a tv broadcast. Excellent sound quality and I have not experienced any interference as some claim, but we don't have close neighbors so that may be the reason? I like them enough that I purchased a second set. Also like the on/off and volumn controls on the front, (user friendly)! Just one thing to keep in mind, I have been told that tv's built after 2009 no longer have the left and right audio out needed to plug in to because they have went to digital audio out, however you can purchase a converter box that plugs into the new digital out and then allows you to plug in your red and white RCA audio speaker jacks that are needed for hook-up, so you may want to do some research on that if hooking to your tv.Read full review
I've received years of enjoyment from this portable speaker system. It is not true that you must turn off each speaker individually. You may do that, but you can shut them all off together by shutting down the transmitter (i.e. unplugging it), which I do to save energy, using a remote outlet control. After several years, I also had some trouble with the batteries recharging -- it turns out that slightly bending the + contact metal fixes it -- the contacts evidently conform so completely to the battery shape over time that any minor movement causes the battery to lose contact. If that wasn't clear, just stick a thin blade behind each metal strip and bend it a little, and I'll bet that your batteries will start recharging. The batteries do wear out eventually, though, and Battery Junction has some nice Nickel Metal Hydride replacements from Tenergy. Also, I've heard people complain about the reception at greater distance, but putting the transmitter up high, like on a tall bookcase, seems to solve that.Read full review
