Product Review (submitted on June 13, 2017):

I purchase this unit because the cable outlet was on the opposite side of the room from where my wife wanted a TV mounted on a wall. She is also cable-phobic, so I thought this would fit the bill with wireless broadcast. So far the unit is working great, with only minor alignment issues during set up. The transmitter and receiver are in the same room.I tried a temporary set up initially to confirm the unit would work with the receiver and transmitter directly across the room from each other, which worked great from the gitgo. Then I went ahead and hung the TV on the wall in a location where the TV was not directly facing the transmitter. After hiding all the cables behind the TV and leaving the receiver just under the bottom edge of the TV, but facing forward with the TV, I turned on the Nyrius ARIES once again. At first it found the signal, but lost it pretty quick. I continued to struggle to capture the signal, until I turned the receiver about 45 degrees toward the transmitter and then was able to lock onto a signal.With the transmitter and receiver pointed at each other, I have continued to have a great signal without any dropout. The picture is great and audio is perfectly in tune. I would have rated this a 5 star, but the unit is a little larger than I imagined it to be and line of sight needs to be pretty direct. Also, trying to figure out how to mount the receiver around the TV is frustrating without some length of cable showing. It would be nice if some type of flexible wall mounting brackets were included or even available for after market purchase. - Verified Store
