AUTIONAUTION

Your Wireless Audio Sender kit consists of a Sender base unit which
connects to the audio out jack on any audio source, a Receiver unit
with built-in speaker drivers to which you connect your own
speakers,* and a remote control that lets you control the volume,
balance, bass, treble, etc. The Audio Sender converts the audio
signal from your CD player, stereo, PC sound card, etc. into a radio
frequency (RF) signal and transmits it (even through walls) to the
Audio Receiver unit. The Audio Receiver converts the signal back to
its original form, amplifies the signal, and passes it to your connected
speakers. The remote is also a Universal Remote so it can also control
your TV, VCR, etc. It can also control an MP3, DVD, and CD player
in your PC when used with an additional RF receiver and software
(see page 17). It can even control lights and appliances around your
home when used with X10 Modules (see pages 24 and 25).

Place the receiver and speakers on your deck for example, and listen
to high quality audio outside while you're having a barbecue. Do not
leave the unit outside however, see below.
