Pros: Easy set up. No hiss or static
Cons: 8 C cell batteries each speaker
The bottom line: Great sound for the money.
I bought these to use around the pool. we used to have a getto blaster but it was large and inconvenient to lug out side everytime sat by the pool. I have them set up about 60 ft. from the stereo in the house with no direct line of sight. They sound great. Easy to hook up. Only took minutes. They use 8 C cell batteries each. But I have had them for 2 weeks and use them about 40 hours so far, but will probably buy the rechargable when these run dead. Even with the batteries they are still light weight and easy to move.

No static or hiss playing CD's and the radio. I plugged them into the headphone jack on the stereo and control the Bass and Treble on the stereo since there is only sound controls on the speakers. They rock my yard and look good too.

They have a left and right stereo switch as well as a mono switch. I haven't used the mono but the stereo setup sounds great.

I tried several other brands both cheaper and more expensive but these had the best sound. You can get wired ones that sound better but who wants wires. Would definately buy these again if anything happens to the ones I have.
