Audio Unlimited Wireless Speakers with Remote (SPK-VELO-001) Reviews
Again, if you want to listen to music in throughout your house and backyard these speakers will work great. I bought one set, liked it so much that I bought another set. I wish I would of seen them first. The cool thing is that you can play multiple speakers off of the one transmitter you plug into your computer. A little side note, I just saw these same speakers that are Indoor/Outdoor.
I went to Radio Shack and bought a two prong speaker plug so I can plug in my regular speakers into my computer and then plug in these speakers. I'm not one to write reviews, but I felt compelled to after getting these speakers. They are not that much more. Everything stated in other 5 star reviews of these speakers are accurate.
Due to Amazon's easy return policy, I took a chance. Mike Honeycutt I wouldn't even have considered running speaker wire that far. Finally, I didn't measure but the speakers are around 16 inches high and should fit anywhere. The speakers also come with remote (didn't use) and different adapters.
I would buy these speakers again. Talk about painless. I should also mention the annoying bright blue power light that is easily taped over. As for the sound, I didn't hear any problems and thought the speakers did a great job. Speakers are always subjective so I was a little concerned about some of the reviews I read about the Audio Unlimited Wireless Speakers. In fact, my PC connected to the speakers as easily as the stereo. Five minutes after unboxing the speakers, I had music in two rooms of my house.
Distance is limited, but in general I haven't experienced any problem with them on the back deck, or in the garage or driveway. I purchased these after visiting friends who had a similar pair. The only drawback I've noticed is some popping from time to time, but this might actually be a result of being close to the limit of their range, or even batteries. You can connect the transmitter to any audio source that has an output or headphone jack. Nice to have music while washing the car, etc. For the price, this is a decent set of weatherproof speakers.
In both cases we find them more than adequate. And then, there is that light. My only real complaints are that they are light weight and the on/off button is too stiff, so unless the speakers are mounted to the wall you have to hold them to turn them on.
. We have two sets of these speakers and are pleased with them, but we do not use them as the primary speakers for either system.
These are not high quality stereo speakers, but then of course they didn't cost as much as the mounting brackets for our Bose surround sound system. The other set is attached to our rec room TV so people in the bar area watching sports can hear the game even thought they are on the other side of the room. The blue indicator light on each of the three components is so bright they look like they were designed to guide planes in for night landing.
One set we use outdoors to extend our sound system so you can hear music on both levels of the deck without having to turn the volume so high.
I bought these in hopes that I wouldn't have to buy an MP3 player to play music already on my computer throughout our apartment. Initially, I did experience popping and buzzing from the speakers (as others have mentioned), but turning the volume up on my computer and down on the speakers solved the problem. I was worried about interference from surrounding apartments but it hasn't been a problem. Just one word of warning: If you value your eyesight, don't look directly at the blue power light on the speakers. In short, they fit the bill.
