Kenwood Wireless Amplifier - RFU-6100

I recently ordered one of these for $160 even though I know no one likes wireless speakers. Its basically 2 peices, a transmitter for any reciever, & a wireless reciever that has 2 speaker outputs at 50w each. While it's not technically 100% wireless since you run wires to the speakers & plug into an outlet, it will keep people like myself from running wires accross the living room for the rear surround sound speakers.

I was curious if anyone else here as any experience with this product? I've read a bunch of really great reviews & a few bad ones that talk about clicks & pops from rf signal interferance.

Most other wireless systems either have shoddy integrated speakers, require the stereo reciever to be the same brand (bose, sony, panasonic) with the ability to just pop in a card, or only output a measly 25w.

I should get mine on Weds or Thurs. So hopefully next weekend after Christmas I'll come back & comment for others.

This thing sucked hard... my rear speakers sounded like whispers even with the front speakers turned off. I tried all 4 settings, 3 of the settings just caused all sorts of small pops & alot of fading in & out. It sounded like whispering no matter what, so back they go for a refund. While the idea is nice, I'll just do things the proper way & fish speaker wire under my living room carpet.

Its actually a wireless transmitter & receiver... but yeah all the same, it was crap. My fiancee is going to have to deal with 2 tiny holes in the carpet & a tiny spot where she might feel the cable.
