Got this for $99 and currently using it for my basement movie experience. Working great for me. But I am no audiophile...

It's interesting that it says this is a 2.4GHz connection. I've seen older devices that operate on 2.4GHz that are not Wifi (for example, those old wireless Wavebird Gamecube controllers) cause terrible Wifi interference because it's crapping/spewing data all over the 2.4GHz spectrum. Anyone know if this subwoofer is similar?

Many devices use 2.4ghz today so this isn't anything unusual. Wireless headsets, mice, controllers and so on. Even Bluetooth is in 2.4ghz band.

It's possible for there to be interference of course, though probably unlikely to the point it will cause an issue. The only interference I've experienced recently is funnily enough from a Roomba. It wasn't 2.4ghz but rather spamming IR with it's radar. My old receiver remote wouldn't work while it was running.

this could be awesome for my 7.2 setup, how is latency as i've never done anything wireless on home theater before?

I've had this on my home theater for a little while. I've have no issues.

This thing is fantastic. Never any dropped connection or latency.

Got this for $99 at Costco—ended up returning and buying the RSL 10e for $299. I'm no audiophile either, but after hearing the difference side-by-side the sound quality is significantly better

Obviously there's a huge price difference between the two, so $99 is a no brainer deal if you can find it. If you can stretch the budget though, then skip this $150 sub and get the RSL 10e or a used SVS

The question I usually ask myself is whether the RSL performed 300% better. No? I would keep the Klipsch

Great point and an important consideration, hence why I said $99 is still an amazing deal! I think this difference would only really matter to people who listen to bass-heavy music or movies

Sorry I didn't mean it to be an attack towards you. Re-reading my statement it did sound a little strong, so I apologize.

I'm all about bang for the buck so gimme my $99 sub Big Grin

Sort of wireless like all others of this type. Requires cord for power. I have three of these "wireless" sets.
