Wireless home audio

I purchased a set of wireless transmitter to output audio from my PC through the stereo. I must say I am very pleased with the product. British-established company Oono hit a home run with this cleverly thought product.

Transmita V2The Transmita Vii is the upgrade of Oono previous line: the Transmita. The Vii set is much smaller and lighter than its predecessor, roughly the size of a Zippo lighter. The Vii wireless transmitter and receiver feature the same casing: both items feature a tiny rotating antenna, run on a battery that can be charged through mini-USB.

Operating is pretty much straightforward: the light on top turns blue when the device is switched on. There is a power-saving feature, by which after a determined time both devices automatically switch off if audio isn’t fed through them.

When recharging, the light turns red and then orange once the process is complete. The longest I have needed to used them is probably around six hours of continuous use, so I have not had yet the opportunity to push them to their limit.

Overall this is a no-nonsense product, very practical to use and affordable. I sometimes carry on the receiver in my pocket to plug earphones in and wirelessly listen to the audio while wandering around the house. My only complain is the lack of visual difference between transmitter and receiver. Apart from the tag on the bottom face, there is no way of knowing which one is which. Still, I am very pleased with the set.


I give it a 5 star: simply superb.
