Unwire your music
Hear all your music - no dropouts, static, or noise. Some pretty clever engineering means your music remains free from interference from wireless routers, cordless and mobile phones, microwave ovens, Bluetooth and WiFi devices.

Easy setup
Most wireless audio products are difficult to use because they require you to download and install software, set up a network, and often require you to manually try to find a clear audio channel. The AW1 is plug-and-play so no software installation is needed - just connect both dongles to USB power (or to a USB battery pack), connect the audio cables, and wait 2 to 3 seconds for the status lights to go solid. Two stereo mini cables and an RCA adapter cable are included for easy connection to all your gear.

    As advertised and then some

    "After researching this product, I wasn't necessarily surprised at its ease of use or great performance. What was surprising though was that it configures as a USB Sound Card, which either I missed in the descriptions or isn't stated. This means that you don't need to patch the input of the transmitter to the headphone jack if you use it on a computer. (Patch cord is still required if using a standalone music ..."

    DOESN'T WORK

    "Unit does not work as advertised. It is subject to drop-offs and interference from neighbors WIFI transmissions. As such the unit is unusable to send Internet Music from my PC to my Audio Receiver not more than 30 feet away in another room.

    "I was looking for a way to get my iTunes collection to play on my home stereo system since my two 400-CD Mega-Changers couldn't hold my collection anymore. The sound quality is just as good as the CD's. Plug-n-Play. So simple to use. This was just what I was looking for. Thanks Audioengine! "
