However, if you just want to get your 300-500 watt sub hooked up, it works fine. I wish the ground wire was a bit longer and the connectors fit the wires better, but for less than $10 bucks I'm not complaining. <br /> <br />Pros: <br />1. Power wire is flexible and long. <br />2. Connectors for attaching to battery and other bolts included. <br /> <br />Cons: <br />1. Wires aren't audiophile thick. <br />2. Ground wire could be longer. <br />3. Connectors are a bit big for the wires and require serious crimping (I soldered them too.) Rating: 4 / 5 If you are an audiophile who needs megaguage wires, this kit isn’t for you.

Pros:

1. Power wire is flexible and long.

2. Connectors for attaching to battery and other bolts included.

Cons:

1. Wires aren’t audiophile thick.

2. Ground wire could be longer.

3. Connectors are a bit big for the wires and require serious crimping (I soldered them too.)

But with the EOS Wireless system and four speakers I can have beautiful digital music playing in all or just some of the rooms of my house. Each speaker's volume can be adjusted from completely off to as loud as you like. <br />The sound is superb and is great for parties or simply for my own audiophile enjoyment. I installed it myself and I am hardly a techy. My girlfriends think I am brilliant. <br />I recommend this to any audiophile who has an IPod (any MP3 player), or like me, has an extensive Music Library on my computer.

We use in our office environment. We purchased this system after reading various reviews about other systems interfering with 2.4 Gigahertz networks. The sound is good quality. The cords the remote speakers use could be longer and the speakers cound have more bass but otherwise the sound is great.

When we set-up the system, it looked good and the sound was quite good for it's intended use. Don't expect high-end sound quality but it was notable from a price perspective. The major problem was that the remote speakers kept cutting off for a few seconds every few minutes although the speakers were just 15-20 feet away from the base unit. We tried the extended range option but that created a really bad delayed effect you could hear throughout the house. It was very disappointing and a real deal-breaker and we are sending it back. I was really hopeful with the added options of EOS product line that this would be a perfect solution, sadly you need to look elsewhere.

We take it when we go on vacation and camping if there happens to be electricity. It works a treat, though as some reviewers have said it does not work with the newest nano but I think that should be apples fault and not EOS. Some reviewers have stated that it doesn't work well with the itouch/iphone to play pandora/rhapsody/last fm, but EOS does have a transmitter that you can plug into your computer or other device and play those things. They also have an Iphone/itouch app that allows you to control it from where ever you are. I really like this product and I think that some of the negative reviews stem from the fact that people bought it expecting it to do much more than what it was advertised to do. If you want a great wireless speaker set for your ipod then buy this, if want something else then buy the other transmitter and amplifier that the company sells.

I went to exchange it and the Seller ANTOnline, made me pay for shipping back and then if I wanted a new one shipping again to re-purchase it.

Fine sound for the size, really liked that. <br /> <br />2. Waaaaaay too complicated to set things. This is one of those, "We're only going to give you 10 buttons, so to set an alarm, you have to hit this button, then hit that button 4 times, then hit a third button. Complete pain in the neck to get to simple features. I might put up with that, but if you're the sort of person who is frustrated by utterly mysterious ergonomics, be aware, this unit is the anti-iPhone. <br /> <br />3. The system uses an automated CD insert -- you slide the CD into the front of the unit and a little motorized gripper pulls it in or pushes it out when you hit eject. After two weeks, mine stopped working. If I want to hear The Goldberg Variations, it's great, but I was sort of thinking that it would play lots of DIFFERENT CDs, not just the one I put in a week ago! <br /> <br />Bottom line: I'm returning the unit with my CD of the Goldberg Variations still inside it, because I can't get the furshlugginer thing out. I figure if it starts eating CDs in 2 weeks, there's not much hope for this as a long term addition to the house. <br /> <br /> Rating: 1 / 5 1. Fine sound for the size, really liked that.

I have to change the sound level to 0 to not hear an alarm go off. Too bad since that is one of the reasons I bought this radio for the dual alarm clock.

You can also set the tv on the top shelf or m,ount directly to the wall. It is absolutely what I wanted and the price is great. A+++++ Rating: 5 / 5 This was a awesome product for the money.

Unpack carefully as to not scratch finish and be prepared for Styrofoam mess all over the assembly area. I paid 233.33 from Amazon so look for that price point. The box is heavy to move (101 Lbs) but one person can put it together in 30-45 min. Check for all hardware first off because returning this beast in original packaging would be hard.
