Twice this price on TigerDirect TigerDirect Sunset
but with no reviews I would be wary. Remember that old FM transmitter you had to play CDs in your car’s tape deck? Yeah, wireless transmission is not really the best technology to use for high-quality audio.

I have had good luck with a wireless sub on a panasonic sound bar and a few other wireless devices without any noticable artifacts or noise. But I cannot attest to this other than polk makes some solid stuff.
?? So what can this hook up to…Can this hook up to a receiver and be a part of a speaker system? Can this be used with an iPod as both a speaker and the bass?

The transmitter hooks in to the RCA audio out (red/white) on your TV or Reciever for your current system. The wireless transmitter gets powered by either the USB connection in the back of newer TVs or by a 110 outlet in the wall.
I purchased one of these from Woot a week or two ago, with much reservation. I’ve never known wireless speakers to satisfy me (a perfectionist but maybe not quite an audiophile), but I thought I’d take a chance on this as my wired Polk 10" sub took a dive a few months back, and my wife hates wires (even ones run in a track along the wall).
And to you smart guys saying you can put a sub anywhere: just wait until you get married.
I’m very pleased with the speaker and the wireless functionality in my set up. I am just using a subwoofer (mono RCA) out from my receiver to the transmitter, and it works great. I did have to move the transmitter a couple feet away from my wireless router, but it’s fine now.
Adding to my recent woes with Woot! lately is of course I paid 10% more 4 weeks ago. Not a happy customer lately.
