JBL WEM-1 Wireless Expansion Module


   

JBL is now shipping a new wireless module. The JBL WEM-1 (SRP: $359) adds wireless capability to any loudspeaker. It eliminates the need to run speaker wires across a room or through walls, floors or ceilings.

The WEM-1 includes a transmitter module that connects to an audio source; a receiver/amplifier unit that connects to a pair of loudspeakers; a remote control; and accessories. It is ideal for adding multiroom capability to an existing audio system; adding surround loudspeakers to a home theatre system without running speaker wires; distributing music to anywhere in the home from a computer; and for many other applications.

The WEM-1 has an operating range of up to 70 feet. It provides a variety of connection options to accommodate a wide range of audio source components and A/V receivers.

The receiver/amplifier unit features a 50-watt-per-channel amplifier and includes a subwoofer output. It provides five equalization curves that are tailored for use with select JBL loudspeakers; it also provides an unequalized bypass setting.

The receiver/amplifier also has a local input, allowing the user to directly connect a portable device or other audio source to it at a remote location.







Reason #84 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:
Let me tell you a story about a man named Mike. Overwhelmed by components, can't believe marketing claims. And then one day while surfing on the net, up came a page with an interesting claim... Knowledge that is. Reference material. Widescreen Review. Well, the first thing you know old Mike's signed up. Getting monthly coverage and in-depth reviews. He thought Widescreen Review is what we all should read. So now I'm reading Joe Kane and spouting ISF calibration, that is. Image quality. SMPTE bars. - Mike Koubeck
