I got some money from the in-laws for Christmas and decided to try out a wireless speaker connection I saw at Best Buy to solve my lack of rear speaker problem. I had tried some 900 MHZ speakers in the past and they had a lot of noise on them and interference with my cell phone and what-not so I was skeptical of wireless but I really didn’t want to run wire thru my attic and down my fireplace.
It was easy to hook up and the connection was immediate between my Harmon Kardon Receiver and the Bose speakers I hooked up to the unit. Even when I put my ear to the speakers I couldn’t hear any hiss or pops that I had heard with other wireless setups. There is a volume adjustment control on the wireless receiver so you can easily manage how much or how little you hear from the back.
Here are the details from the Best Buy site and for $100 I think it is a pretty good deal.

I figured I would post this because I doubt I am the only one who has had issues with the rear speakers and just FYI, the WAF is really positive.
