Product Review (submitted on November 5, 2015):

I have a pretty big house (3000 sq feet). I wanted a way to work in one room and then move to another room without having to hook up my mp3 player each time. The Nyrius was a simple set up: pair the receiver with my iphone then plug into my stereo. I have a Sony media player (non-bluetooth) in the kitchen. Three rooms away is the Nyrius. When I'm in the living room, all I have to do is power on the Nyrius and I get music through my stereo.

There is a caveat: As stated by a few, you'll want a decent line of sight. As stated, mine is three rooms away (25-30 feet). My iPhone is on my far kitchen counter at an angle pointed mostly at a door. The Nyrius is two rooms away just around the corner in the living room. There aren't any other electronics in the direct line of sight but there are computers off to the side (I don't know if that makes a difference, but I know it can with other bluetooth items). It plays just fine. If I move the system so it's not *just* around the corner (say, more towards the middle of the living room wall so there are two/three full walls in between), the sound gets choppy. That's why I'm giving it only four stars.

Another thing to remember is that you'll want to turn it off when done listening to music. If you have it plugged into your iPhone as I do, the Nyrius will pick up all of your calls and blast them through the house! This does, though, show that it works well through ceilings/floors, as I was upstairs and could hear my call being broadcast below into the living room.

For the price, it's a great little system. It's small. It's easy to set up. It works over a decent area as long as there aren't too many walls in its way.
