Sony AIR-SA20PK S-AirPlay Digital Wireless Speaker System for iPod (Black)

I had high hopes for this product --- needed a way to put sound throughout my small house and functionality seemed great (the ability to use different modes in different rooms, ability to use remote with each of the speaker units to control the ipod, etc.) Unfortunately, it did not work as well as hoped.
The base and speakers had a hard time talking to each other, and they were only 50-60 ft apart and in a relatively unobstructed path. Had to move the base closer and align the speaker so that it was in a more direct visual view. Still, with people in the room it would fade in and out. Not sure if this is because I have wireless internet in the house, which the manual says might interfere, but who that would be looking for wireless speakers doesn't have wireless internet??
The sound quality is very good. Not quite as good as my Bose docking station, but I was pleasantly surprised. The other big downside for me with the sound, however, and the last straw that...Read more

I recently purchased this item at shop nbc for $165. It is a good deal for that amount. For the $400 that is was originally it would not have been worth it. I would have rated this item a 3.5 star. It is good. Unlike some others who have had signal problems, I have not experienced those issues. I live in a house that has wifi, the wii and laptops. I placed one unit up stairs an the other one downstairs (the base is downstairs) and the system plays well. I did not like the quality of the base units and the speaker remotes, they seem like toys, I don't know what sony was thinking. The sound quality is pretty good though it could be louder. Overall I would recommend this product.

I have been looking that this for a while and actually got a hands on demo at CES. I did not buy from Amazon as Circuit City had piles of them at a much better price :¬). I like the product, very easy setup, great sound. The fastest way to a house full of music. All products like this work much better if you create a few playlists as you will have limited ability to browse music from the remote speaker.

I have several different generation iPods and it generally worked, but did not charge my old iPod Mini (not surprised) and would not show artist and song info from the really old iPods (also not surprised).
