30 gig snap on cover fits great.......2007-12-21
The cover works great, fits like a glove, & protects the entire player. Including the screen. Great cover for the price. I ordered 3, one for me, one for a friend, & a spare. The screen cover will eventually get scratched up.
The shipping was fast, but a little high. Spend the extra & order more than one. That makes the shipping a little easier to take.
I would buy from these guys again.

the headphones are good, but they lasted only a week, out of a sudden they were not working.
but overall they are good.

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.

Has it's +s and -s.......2007-12-25
I just received my Amazon purchase. Lucky for me that I already own 2 sets of these to know that this newer set is not working well. The manufacturer has also changed a very integral part of the transmitter (a volume level on its back) it seems.
First, they work fine for talk radio on mono. They are great to run a talk radio show on my MP3 player while I am out shopping. Chatter in a house with all these gangs from south of our border is helpful... ;-)
These transmitters also work great coupled with their 900mhz wireless headphones. They give my headphones a bit of a boost, so I wanted a 3rd set, not for the speakers, but for the transmitter. As I said, I have two, so a third back up would be nice. I run two (one in the front room and another in a back room (one being unhooked obviously).
Now for the fun stuff:
1) These speakers (not transmitters) have suddenly died on me for no reason. If I didn't have two sets, yes, their customer service could feed it to me as they did for another customer here. Unfortunately for them, they would have been hard-pressed to answer why one speaker is dead and the other three are dandy. What I am saying that after using these for a few years, I have had to return several sets to Best Buy whence they came (I purchased extended warranties, which I would advise you to do if you buy these.)
2) On many of my sets, either the lights did not work properly out of the box or they died in time. On this set, they are blue on the transmitter out of the box, when the power is hooked up. NONE of my prior sets have ever done this. They are supposed to be blue on the front of the transmitter after the sound begins to play to the speaker. That way you know blinks rates, etc. If the transmitter is not blinking while playing sound, turn down your volume. This new set is always a solid blue, and there is no way to adjust its back or to know if something is wrong. Well, there is something wrong---it's light never goes off! Even when I am sleeping-waaaa.
3) I am not sure if this is caused by the blue light on the transmitter, but when I hit PLAY on my sound source, my o my do my headphones freak. So do my old AW-871 speakers (I have bothered undoing the new speakers, since these defects are going back.) I am going to lose my hearing from this for sure. It is a sound that it makes at first, that my other two sets does not, nor should these. I am going to guess that without the volume at the back of the transmitter, they turned it up wide, but even with my MP3 player and headphones almost all the way down, the sound is still going down.
Bottom line is that these can be great and irreplaceable for what I use them for, BUT they are not made well, never have been, and I don't think that their new version has fixed a thing. Rather than fixing problems, they just made them even cheaper. Goody
AR AW871 wireless speakers.......2007-12-20
The wireless speakers are great and they were very easy to install. My only disappointment is that the volume is controlled on the speakers themselves; no longer can I turn the volume up or down on my receiver, and my remote for the reciever is useless. It's not a major drawback since I don't play music a lot. I would think if I did, that would be a problem. If AR would come up with a remote for these speakers, that would help.
Worst buy ever!!.......2007-12-10
These speakers worked great for about a month and then all of a sudden they lost signal and stopped working altogether. Tried to contact the company, they siad there was must be to much interference in my home, this was causing them not to work.
Great for a party.......2007-12-09
I purchased this as a gift to my parents so they could have outdoor parties. We love it. The sound is fair to good depending on the signal, but it served its purpose for bringing the music outside. The good thing is that the music still plays on the stereo inside while the speakers are on. We have also used it with our iPod and it was fabulous as well. Great buy!
Not the very best........2007-11-09
Acoustic Research AW-871 Wireless Stereo Speakers It was easy to install, and the sound is good. I have a problem with a popping sound. Even when the stereo is off. One or both of the speakers will pop on and off, for no apparent reason.
