Logitech Wireless DJ Music System

I was looking for something to stream my mp3s to my home stereo so I went to Best Buy to see what they had. The associate that helped me pointed me to this device. For $50 I could not pass it up. I bought it in November of 2007 and I had to replace the unit twice, about a year apart each time, but it was under the warranty fortunately. Whether it was the battery or the base unit that charges the remote that went bad I am not sure, but Logitech does honor the warranty and was very quick and professional in the replacement of the device. I would give it a higher rating (I really like the device) but the overall lifespan takes away some stars.

works good, easy to set up... BUT.... you can't get a 2nd reciever for this... altho there are settings to have a few...to bad... but... it moves around easy...

Product works great but does have some drawbacks but performs its purpose at a very low cost. sound quality remains very high and range is pretty good.

I REALLY wanted to like this thing, but it just doesn't work. It's frequency doesn't transmit through people, so when you throw a party, it just stops working. I wish I got the squeezebox because that thing will at least work over 802.11, but at four times the price, you really have to ask yourself if it's worth it.

It doesn't get much easier than this. My real rating is a 3.75. I was looking for a simple (wireless) connection from my PC to my stereo for playing music/playlists. I had tried Apple's AirExpress and others with little/no luck.

Pros: Easy set-up. VERY nice, comprehensive control of the iPod functions from the remote (including ability to see the song names in the playlists). Audio quality is pretty darn good. I realize most manufacturers (including Logitech) have migrated away from Bluetooth and toward WiFi for this application, but their abandoning this technology made this product just too inexpensive to resist (I paid $95 in Jan. '08)

Cons: When I want to use the system, I usually have to "reset" it by turning the remote (stereo end) base unit off, then on again. The VERY occasional "skip" of connection - usually only happens when music has streamed for hours at a time - might even be a PC issue.

Two other quick notes- On the plus side, I've had no range or line of sight connection issues, and my PC is approx. 60', 3 walls and a closed cabinet away from my home audio receiver. On the down side, I've had challenges getting the "broadcast any PC sound" feature to work consistently - not a big deal for me, but would come in handy for some applications.

I think this unit is getting tougher and tougher to find, but if you have the need and can pick one up before they're extinct, it's a good value.
