Avoids front to rear wires but not the rest
on March 20, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
These are now working well. Initially, I bought one kit thinking it would work for me. Unfortunately, it turned out that it did not and I had to purchase two kits, one for each rear speaker. The relatively large black receivers are a bit obtrusive on our light-colored walls with our white speakers. Although these units do eliminate the front to rear speaker wires, each one has an obtrusive black power cable running from a power outlet to the receiver as well as the white (in our case) speaker wire from each receiver to its corresponding speaker. In summary, the system was difficult to set up (which was done by the Geek squad) and difficult to integrate into our room décor but now provides good sound.

Enjoy brilliant audio with this floor speaker that features an 8" high-excursion, doped fiber woofer cone for booming lows and a 34" Xstat Curvilinear Line Source (CLS) electrostatic transducer with 292 sq. in. of radiating surface for amazing sound.

Beautiful sound quality for classical music

We use two of these speakers in a 5.0 configuration with a center speaker and two bookshelf speakers at the back; no sub-woofer. They are quite unobtrusive compared with the much larger main speakers I previously used but the sound quality is just as good. I don't feel the need for a sub-woofer with the music, films and TV that I watch.

This Sony BDPS6200 Blu-ray player supports 4K Ultra HD images. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.

Has handled everything we tried very well

We use this player for AT&T Uverse content. It is responsive and easy to use with the included remote control. It plays a very old home-made DVD that was copied from a low-resolution TV video-tape decades ago. Blu-Ray discs play well, as you would expect. Unobtrusive; just gets on with the job without fuss.

Excellent sound quality at levels from 10 to 40

We use this receiver for classical music, TV and films on Blu-ray with speakers in a 5.0 configuration. I am delighted with the sound quality under these circumstances, both the clarity of the notes and the sense of space as well as clear definition of direction. We listen at relatively low sound levels, just the two of us close to the speakers.

Stunning 4k image quality; good Blu-ray upscaling
on March 20, 2015
Posted by: Harry
Verified Purchase:Yes
This expensive 4k TV makes my photographs look wonderful; great detail and local contrast with excellent color saturation. Upscaled Blu-Ray content looks much better than our previous high-end HD TV. Upscaled non-HD TV content does show visible artefacts but we find it quite watchable.

2.4ghz only? Other wireless devices can interfere?
I'm in a small apartment, with a wireless router and various other wireless devices... many that are operating on 2.4ghz. I am planning on getting a new Yamaha 5.1 receiver with built in Airplay and Wifi so I can use my Android Tablet to control the stereo through the Wifi...
Won't this 2.4ghz only on this Rocketfish have problems with all of that?? Some friends tell me that you won't actually HEAR much difference in the speaker audio but that other devices might be forced to accept a much weaker signal and be handicapped by it...

This bothered me, too, but we installed anyway and I have seen no evidence of interference affecting the sound or the WiFi or anything else.

in using this unit can you put speakers like 12 foot apart
can you use this unit so that 1 speaker is on 1 side of the room and the other speaker is on the other side of the room,,,,,,,,,with out having to run like 12 foot of wire?? the wire included is 2 foot,,,,,does this mean you have to have your speakers next to each other.
We have two rear speakers separated by a doorway which sounds similar to your problem. We used two sets of transmitter-receiver, one for each rear speaker. It works fine.

Quad RF-WHT1B Set-up ?
Room configuration is such that my HK audio receiver will be located on a long side wall of a rectangular room with no ability to run speaker cable to any remotely placed speaker. Speakers (RF,LF,RR.LR) will be located in each corner of the room (power supply available at each corner). Is it feasible to use 4 RF-WHT1B transmitters to individually send audio signals to 4 RF-WHT1B receivers/speakers (RF,LF,RR,LR) ? Each RF-WHT1B transmitter would be connected to the appropriate speaker output terminals on the back of the HK audio receiver (RF,LF,RR,LR) so that the individual audio channels are directed to the corresponding RF-WHT1B receivers and their speakers.
I don't know about 4 speakers but we do what you suggest with two rear speakers and it works perfectly.

How many 3D Glasses?
In the "Product Features" description in the main body of the listing it states 4. In the "What's Included" it states 2. Which is it?
Our TV came with 2 pairs of glasses, allowing 2 people to watch in 3D at the same time..
