Compatible with Sony S-AIR-Ready Home Theater Systems

To use the AIR-SA10, you'll need a compatible Sony S-AIR home theater system.

Combine the EZ-WT100 with a WAHT-SA20 wireless rear amplifier for home theater environments where you need maximum range. Need to reach across the home, or even outside? The WAHT-SA20 will add power to your signal for stutter-free wireless transmission of your audio content.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING!!!!!!, January 13, 2009

This has to be one of our best gifts to us from Santa ever! It comes with 2 speakers - we bought an extra one and liked it so much, we just ordered an other one. You can change the song from any speaker, each speaker has volume control and on/off switch. When not in use, it displays the time. It looks sharp and the sound is unbelievable. The best part is you can move a speaker outside or basement or garage anywhere....

This review is from: Sony AIRSA10 S-AIR Speaker System - Black (Electronics)

One of the most recent reviews on this said this product would not work with your receiver hooked up with a hdmi cable, so I was reluctant to purchase. But figured there are alot of people who have no idea what they are talking about, so I ordered anyway. I AM GLAD I DID! Here is the scoop on this awesome little black box. First off it works no problem with the receiver hooked up thru HDMI cable only. I have the sony bdve300 blu-ray/surround package which has the option to buy the EZW-T100 s-air adapter (which I did purchase separately)that allows my bdve300 system to send the wireless signal to this little black box. I plugged this little black box in , turned the power button on , it immediately paired and the radio station I was listening to on my main unit played like magic! I then took the unit to the farthest place I would listen to it (outside my house) and it played perfect. At this time I tried to use the buttons on the box which flipped thru my preset radio stations without ever programming them they were all just there! You can fast forward, stop, play dvd/cd right from this unit also. Next ran the normal tests. 1)Volume : not bad, nice clean sound, no bass, plenty of volume for me (surprised). 2) Construction : feels solid not cheap 3) Functions : played cable tv, radio, dvd/cd audio perfect(what else matters). When watching 5.1 dvd it seems to play the front speakers sound not the rear surround sound just in case anyone is curious. I love this little black box so much that I just purchased another and am considering buying a third. This is a tremendous value and do not see how anyone would give this a bad review unless they received a defective unit. Sorry for the long reveiw but felt this item took some unfair remarks and I wanted to set the record straight. Buy this item, you can't go wrong!

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice but tough to set up!, November 24, 2009

So now that I finally have mine up and playing I will say its a neat little unit. I won't rave about the sound quality as it does not meet my standards but yet it's good enough for the use that my wife and I bought it for. I will say it has decent sound quality for the price. I have not had the issues others have with it interfering with WIFI/phones but remember it has various cahnnels you can use to keep it from interfering.I am disappointed that you are not able to listen to any componet that is digital through this unit as I bought it so when I play a concert DVD I can have the added sound in additional rooms. This is not possible unless you conect to the receiver through componet cables which defeats the purpose of having a nice set up.

Pros:
It's a nice little compact unit with decent sound that has a pretty good range. There is not a room I can't receive a good signal from (unlike others have stated).

Cons:
If you don't have a receiver that is set up for this unit, be sure to understand that you are going to pay extra money for the EZW T100 transmitter. This extra cost came as a surprise.
When setting it up, calling Sony does not seem to work, I highly recomend their "chat" room for technical assistance. 2 hours on the phone got me no where and 15 minutes in the chat room had me up and running.
They need to put how to "hard reset" in the manuals, this would have saved me a ton of grief.
The fact that you can't listen to ANYTHING that is connected through a optical, digital or HDMI cable is a MAJOR DOWNFALL.

Summary:
I like this unit but set up is an issue in many cases. Sony is nickel and diming folks for this unit and it sure isn't worth it. I wish I had put the money into a protable unit that I could take anywhere. This unit will not work if it isn't linked to the main unit. Since it won't play the digital portion off my receiver, a protable unit makes more since. I can only listen to the tuner and my old CD player through this unit. I do love gadets and this is just that a gadet. There for I am fairly happy with it as it is a neat concept. There definately needs to be some refinements from Sony for the "next" generation.
