Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have an older house with walls that fall apart if I start putting holes through them for moving speaker wire around. I have been waiting for worthwhile wireless speakers for some time. While EOS may not be perfect, I have been impressed with the clarity, range, and ease of use.
Pro's:
- Easy to use and very intuitive. I was playing music within 3 minutes of taking it out of the box.
- The wireless speaker worked over 100 feet away on a different floor
- Recharging the iPod Nano Gen 1(which fit just fine) was a nice, convenient feature.
- remote was handy. Ability to add up to 4 speakers is a great option
- several friends have commented on how nice it looks, sounds, and how they wish they had one in their home (we've been using ours in the kitchen)
- no skipping in any of the music; the wireless did not interfere with my 2.4 Ghz phone or wireless modem signals.
Con's:
- no off switch; there are blue lights on the base unit and antenna when it is plugged in as well as the antenna on the wireless speaker when plugged in. Seems like a waste of energy.
- the wireless speaker's volume is not controllable via the remote. Only the base unit is controlled by the remote. You can adjust volume on the top of the wireless speaker
If wireless speakers is what you are after, the EOS is a good option.

The Eos Base Station Transmitter It all starts here! The Eos base station transmitter broadcasts interference-free CD quality audio throughout your home, inside and out--up to 150 feet to up to 4 wireless speakers...all while charging your iPod via the Universal Dock. The base station also boasts a great sounding 2.1 stereo speaker system, with two tweeters, a ported down firing subwoofer and SRS WOW! sound enhancement technology.
With Eos, you can broadcast music from your iPod or connect to Eos' auxiliary analog 3.5mm input to broadcast audio from any audio source (XM or Sirius Satellite radio, San Disk or Zune MP3 players, computers, CD players, stereos...anything with an audio output. )
An Infrared remote is also included for base station iPod control.
The "WOW" Factor Eos incorporates SRS WOW!, an award-winning, patented technology that significantly enhances the quality all audio material. SRS WOW! restores detail and purity to digitally compressed audio and provides immersive 3D surround sound from stereo speakers.
SRS WOW! makes up for the limitations inherent in smaller speakers by providing a panoramic three-dimensional audio image that extends the sound in both the horizontal and vertical planes well beyond the speakers the physical placement of the speakers themselves. As a result, we can dramatically improve Eos' audio performance without enlarging the speaker size. The SRS WOW! technology is embedded in the Eos base station and transmitted to all Eos wireless stereo speakers.
Eos Wireless Stereo Speakers Wireless multi-room audio has never been easier. Just plug an Eos wireless speaker into any wall outlet, inside or out and turn up the volume...that's all. Want to move your music to another place? Just unplug it and plug it in somewhere else, it's that easy. The Eos base station allow you to add up to four wireless speakers anywhere around your home. The rugged design of the Eos wireless stereo speakers makes them perfect for indoor or outdoor use.
Speaker Design The design of the wireless remote speaker features a removable, integrated power supply that allows the speaker to mount directly on a wall power outlet without mounting brackets. By removing the power supply from its cavity on the rear of the cabinet, the stereo remote speaker can sit independently on a counter top or bookshelf. The supported surround sound feature improves dynamic audio performance, expands the size of the audio image and improves low frequency sounds.
Signal Proprietary wireless transmission technology uses a dynamic frequency hopping modulation scheme that operates in the 2400 to 2483 GHz frequency for advanced error protection and correction, allowing the speaker to operate free of interference from Wi-Fi signals, Bluetooth signals, or cordless telephones. The system comes backed by a 1-year manufacturer's warranty.
