A Brief Look At Wireless Speakers

04.08.2010 · Posted in Technology Articles

If you have a stereo or surround sound system you should consider opting for indoor outdoor wireless speakers. Going this route for speakers will preclude any necessity of running or concealing wires. If you happen to not be very good at running wires under carpet or getting behind drywall or if you are good and simply do not want to go through the unnecessary work, wireless should be an appealing option. Though it is a clear upgrade, the wireless option is not a huge jump in expense. Opting for wireless speakers is not a tough call.rnrnThe installation of the wireless speaker system is extremely simpler by comparison. Without wires there is no need to pull up carpet or cut drywall. This is with the assumption that these are even options. In some cases there is simply no way to conceal the wires in which case you are left with an **** eyesore of a speaker system which may very well outweigh the benefits of having one in the first place. The farther the distance of the speakers from the source the worse the process of working with the wires.rnrnThe set up of an indoor outdoor wireless speaker itself is not a technically intensive process. The speakers come with a transmitter and run on either batteries or AC power. Simply plug your stereo output into the transmitter and either put batteries in the speakers or plug them in and the work is done.rnrnThe much easier installation and the more aesthetic appeal to indoor outdoor wireless speakers would lead to the assumption that these speakers are much more expensive than standard ones. However, this is not the case. Depending on the brand of the speakers and the range they can transmit, wireless speakers can cost anywhere from between $40 all the way up to $300 and even higher. Most speakers will have a range of about 150 feet so you do not have to worry about getting a range of only 5 feet for the less expensive speakers.rnrnThere are a few things to consider when using wireless speakers. The battery life will usually only last between five to ten hours. Most will come with the option of battery power or AC power however so this is not a limitation but an option. Another thing to know is not to leave the batteries in the speakers, especially if they are used outdoor. This can lead to speaker damage by the batteries.
