Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I would buy it again in a heartbeat!
Sound
Sounds better than most direct connect cables. VERY clean w/the full dynamic range. I've also walked all over my house to see if I can make the receiver dropout, but I've yet to have that happen...even on the LO setting!
Features
As for features, there aren't many. However that keeps it simple to use. I only wish it had multiple channels.
Quality
No problems what so ever!
Value
I can't imagine a better product for the price.
The Wow Factor
It does look good with the front mounted LEDs and the short non-telescoping antennas. Plus it rack mounts!

Musical Style:

rock, alternative, blues, heavy metal, acoustic
