This review is from: Philips AD7000W/37 Fidelio SoundAvia Wireless Speaker with AirPlay (Electronics)
I was looking for a speaker that would connect to the wireless net in my home, not a dock for an iPhone or something. I didn't want to spend a fortune on an Airplay speaker so B&W and such were out. That limits the choice right now to the iHome and this Philips unit. The Philips was $100 cheaper, and is from a reputable brand, so that's what I got.

The unit looks very nice. Not cheap at all.

There is a quickstart guide, which unfortunately does not cover my use case: it covers the cases of streaming from iPhone and such, and connecting to certain routers. No matter, in the manual it says to connect your browser to 196.168.you.know.what and specify your home network. Didn't work the first time, but try again, and there it was in my iTunes speakers list.

After this easy setup, the network connectivity is problemless. Take the speaker to a different room, plug it in, it blinks its blue light for a little bit, beep, and it's on your network. Really...Read more

Customer review from the Amazon Vine&#8482; Program (What's this?)
This speaker is a handsome "wireless" speaker with good sound and support for Apple's AirPlay technology. The reason that I refer to it as "wireless" is that it does have a power cable so you'll still have one wire no matter what!

SETUP
While AirPlay couldn't be easier to configure, before you can have AirPlay, you'll need to get this speaker configured onto your wireless network. The AD7000W comes with a huge color getting started guide to help you add it to your wireless network. One complaint about the getting started guide is that the instructions were cluttered up with 6 different languages so it was hard to figure out where the English text for the next step was without hunting around a bit.

I tried both mechanisms for configuring my wireless support and had mixed results. When I tried following the wifi configuration using my iPhone, it could not connect to my wireless network. The unit doesn't give you any good feedback as to what went wrong so...Read more

Customer review from the Amazon Vine&#8482; Program (What's this?)
Summary: I'm happy with this small speaker. I think it is a very good solution for people looking to supplement their existing sound systems and for people with modest audio demands.

Update 1/13/12: Some people are reporting significant problems joining WiFi networks or getting various devices to control this speaker. Others are reporting quality control issues. Save for the minor issues listed below, none of these large problems have occurred with our unit. I am sorry if you purchase this speaker and it does not perform as it has for us. I can only report our actual experience.

Sound
-As I wrote regarding another small speaker system, there is no point complaining about how this speaker doesn't provide full sound. Show me a 10 watt system that is 12x7x3 inches that can compete with any decent traditional speaker arrangement. Yes, there are some amazing little boxes out there, but ultimately there is a tradeoff when you lower the power and physical...Read more
