More than adequate, and good value for "extra" speakers [Posted on 2008-11-15]
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. 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. 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. In both cases we find them more than adequate.
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.
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.
And then, there is that light. 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.
Decent outdoor speakers for the money [Posted on 2008-11-16]
For the price, this is a decent set of weatherproof speakers. I purchased these after visiting friends who had a similar pair. You can connect the transmitter to any audio source that has an output or headphone jack. Distance is limited, but in general I haven't experienced any problem with them on the back deck, or in the garage or driveway. Nice to have music while washing the car, etc.
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.
Solid Speakers [Posted on 2008-11-16]
Speakers are always subjective so I was a little concerned about some of the reviews I read about the Audio Unlimited Wireless Speakers. Due to Amazon's easy return policy, I took a chance.
Talk about painless. Five minutes after unboxing the speakers, I had music in two rooms of my house. I wouldn't even have considered running speaker wire that far. As for the sound, I didn't hear any problems and thought the speakers did a great job. The speakers also come with remote (didn't use) and different adapters. In fact, my PC connected to the speakers as easily as the stereo.
I should also mention the annoying bright blue power light that is easily taped over.
Finally, I didn't measure but the speakers are around 16 inches high and should fit anywhere.
I would buy these speakers again.

Great Speakers... [Posted on 2008-11-17]
I'm not one to write reviews, but I felt compelled to after getting these speakers. Everything stated in other 5 star reviews of these speakers are accurate. I bought one set, liked it so much that I bought another set. The cool thing is that you can play multiple speakers off of the one transmitter you plug into your computer. 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. Again, if you want to listen to music in throughout your house and backyard these speakers will work great. A little side note, I just saw these same speakers that are Indoor/Outdoor. They are not that much more. I wish I would of seen them first.
Audio Unl. Wireless Speakers [Posted on 2008-11-29]
The speakers are fairly good. It seems like with any wireless speakers they can't go through more than 3 walls, we put them in our living room and they had a tough time. They sound good when they only have to receive a signal through one or two walls.
