This wireless transmitter and receiver system 
use the latest 5.8 GHz technology that travels 
through walls, floors, ceilings and other 
obstacles, delivering high quality sound for 
your home theater system’s rear surround 
speakers. Using this wireless system, you will 
experience movie theater quality sound in 
your own home using your current home 
theater surround system. We have designed 
this system for use with your surround sound 
home theater system to enhance the quality 
of the sound and balance coming from your 
speakers. You can now eliminate running 
long speaker wires through your rooms, while 
enhancing the sound coming from those 
speakers. 

How It Works
The transmitter converts the audio signal 
from your audio source into a 5.8GHz radio 
frequency and transmits it to the receiver. 
The receiver will pick up the best signal from 
one of its two antennas and convert the 
signal back to its original form. Using a 
powerful amplifier, the signal is passed to 
your connected rear surround speakers. The 
result is an enhanced sound quality resulting 
in a theater quality surround sound 
experience. 

This system is compatible with most audio 
sources such as televisions, VCRs, stereo 
receivers/amplifiers, CD players, and 
personal stereos. This unit allows you to 
listen to wired speakers in any room in the 
house when a two-channel source is 
connected to the transmitter. The audio link 
system also tracks the volume setting of your 
audio source, so that when you increase or 
decrease the volume on the audio source, 
the link’s connected speakers respond 
accordingly.

Some of this system’s other features include:

• 6 user-adjustable channels

• 2 diversity receiver antennas for optimal 

audio reception.

• Adjustable speaker and line level input 

control

• 256 option personal ID Code

• Ideal for Dolby 5.1 Digital, Pro Logic II, 

DTS, SCAD and DVD Audio Systems

• Provides digital transmission for superb 

audio clarity

• Immune to interference from microwave 

ovens and other popular 2.4GHz 
equipment

• Signal range of 30 feet
