Forget running wires all the way to the back of your room, having to tape them down or risk tripping over them. Add Samsung's compact SWA-3000 Wireless Module rear-channel amplifier to Samsung's HT-Q20, HT-THQ25, or HT-XQ100 home-theater systems and enjoy full surround-sound audio effects with less setup and ongoing hassle. The SWA-3000 receives rear-channel audio signals virtually anywhere in the room, wirelessly from your system's main unit. All you have to do is place the amplifier in a convenient location, connect the two rear speakers directly to it, insert the included TX card into the DVD changer/receiver, and you can start experiencing exciting multi-channel sound. This two-channel rear amplifier uses the 2.4 GHz signal frequency for excellent clarity, and can operate from a distance of up to 33 feet from your home-theater system. The SWA-3000 runs on standard AC power, and comes with a one-year manufacturer's limited warranty. What's in the Box SWA-3000 amplifier unit, TX card, AC power adapter, and user's manual.

I use this in conjunction with a Samsung Home Theater system. However, this hardly ever works. Nearly every time i turn on the system, the receiver does not respond, and i have to remove and reinsert the SD card module in the back of the theater for the wireless station to operate. Huge hassle.

in shape on time. wished it was sold in stores though for the system it is needed for.

Love the idea, use it daily. Wish it worked 100%. Almost everytime I turn on my receiver, the wireless box doesn't respond and I have to reset the receiver.

I purchased the SWA-3000 wireless module to go with my Samsung HT-TX75 home theater system. The theater system ended up going in for repairs, but the wireless module has been flawless. The module consists of basically four pieces: The electronic module, an interface card for the home theater system, and two sets of speaker wire. For those new to "wireless" you need to understand that you can't change a speaker - if it isn't wireless from the factory, it's going to need wires. What the modules allows you to do is avoid running wires around your home to reach the theater system. The (usually rear speaker) audio signal is sent via radio waves to the wireless module, which picks it up and sends it (via wires) to the speakers. The positive: You can use any speakers you want with this module - you're not forced to use some second-rate speakers bundled with the system. The negative: You still have to run some wires to the speakers from the module. OK, so how hard is it to use? It could not be easier. The wires are connected to the speakers and the module. The interface card is plugged into the theater system. The module is plugged into the wall outlet. Voila! You have speakers! I've uploaded some pictures of my setup. I had no difficulty at all setting up the wireless portion. Mounting the speakers on the wall... well, that was a little more demanding what with flat speaker wire and all... But that's another review. Pros: - Reasonably priced - Good sound - Simple to setup - Not locked into certain speakers Cons: - Still need wires to the speakers - Making the module smaller would be an improvement - Requires Samsung theater system (this wireless system will not work with another brand)

Just wondering: no where here does it say this can be used universally for rear speaker surround with ANY receiver brand. Does this item have to be used with a Samsung HT or can I use it with my older Technics receiver???? Thanks anyone, for answering!
