Product Description
Audiovox became a pioneer in the wireless industry, selling its first vehicle-installed wireless telephones in 1984 as a natural expansion of its automotive aftermarket business. Its extensive distribution network and its long-standing industry relationships have allowed Audiovox to benefit from growing market opportunities in the wireless industry and to exploit niches in the consumer electronics business.
Amazon.com Product Description
Anyone who has installed a speaker system knows the worst part is figuring out how to hide the unsightly speaker cables, especially if your speakers are located across the room from the receiver. Enter this pair of Acoustic Research stereo speakers, which resolves the dilemma by eliminating speaker wires altogether. The system's powerful transmitter broadcasts its 900 MHz signal through walls, floors, ceilings, and other obstacles, giving listeners a wide array of installation options. Looking for a pair of high-quality speakers for the upstairs bedroom? No problem. Want to enjoy your favorite tunes in the basement without running speaker wire through the floor? Easy. Thanks to the system's 300-foot range, almost any home speaker scenario is possible, including positioning the speakers outdoors so you can provide the soundtrack for your neighborhood block party. And fortunately for listeners, the wireless setup doesn't compromise the quality of the audio, as the rich signal is drift- and static-free. Each 10-watt speaker employs a 4-inch woofer and 1-inch dome tweeter, with a left/mono/right switch for added versatility. The speakers also include integrated power, volume, and tuning controls along the front faces. In lieu of an AV receiver, listeners can connect the speakers directly to most audio sources, including TVs, DVD players, VCRs, computers, and portable audio devices such as MP3 players. Alternately, they can connect the speakers to the rear channels of 5.1 surround sound receivers and take full advantage of the wireless design. Each of the speakers comes with its own AC adapter, though listeners can also install eight C-cell batteries per speaker for complete cordless use. The speakers even recharge ni-cad and NiMH batteries when plugged into an AC adapter. Other accessories include a 1/4-inch headphone adapter and a "Y" cable that connects the transmitter to the audio source. What's in the Box
Two speakers, transmitter, AC power adapter for transmitter, two AC power adapters for speakers, Y adapter cable, 1/4-inch headphone adapter, user's manual.

These speakers are a great portable devices allowing one to listen to music in multiple rooms in the house, allowing the music to move with you.
 Beware when ordering, supposedly discontinued April 24, 2009
Rickey W. Jolley (Western New York)
I bought the AW-871 speakers over a year ago & loved them. One speaker quit working recently, probably because I had it blaring at full volume for 10 hrs a day. I tried to purchase another pair & ordered them at Amazon but through an outside vender. Unfortunatly they sent me the less powerful AW-877. After a bit of hassle I was finally able to return the speakers for a refund. What I found out was that (Supposedly) the 871's are dicontinued & they substitute the 877's hoping no one will complain. I asked about this & was told that they still advertise the 871's because they "sold a ton of them" & claim that the 877's are the manufacturers replacement, except that the 877's are listed separately with their own specs, NOT as a replacement. The 871's were a more powerful speaker both in wattage & in range from the transmitter. So.. as it stands I still have not been able to locate a set of 871's altho there is one other company on Amazon who claims to sell it but I have to contact them to find out if they also are pulling the same scam. But as far as the revue for the AW-871's... I loved them!
