Would anything be lost over a cable?


Have you read the reviews at the bottom of the page?


Yes - they seem to mention reliability. Any comments on the concept in
terms of audio? Or is the concept intrinsically unreliable?

It I suspect works on 2.4 Ghz which is now becoming very crowded with
the explosion in wi-fi. I 'd expect it to work well in the absence of
any interfering signals, but these places are now very few and far
between..

A lot of wireless problems are simply caused by congestion of the
available spectrum allocated to it.

Also signal attenuation is quite high in some domestic environments

It may well work fine today but tomorrow when next door start using
their new wi-fi point all the time and perhaps the one across the
way?....

Use wire if you can, a lot more reliable..
