Dynasty PROAUDIO WSA-5RP-PLUS Wireless Surround Sound Rear Speakers Kit with 2 x 100W Amplifier Built-in (Metal Chassis Design)

There is a lot of concern about wireless surrounds. I bought this on the back of the reviews because running wires to my surrounds was simply not possible. Setup was easy. Hook up, switch on and go. The transmitter sits by my TV on the other side of my center speaker from the amp. Turned up the gain on the wireless receiver amp to max. FWIW there are 16 devices on my wireless network, including the Amp, PS5, Switch, Roku, and 'smart' TV. Initially, worked very well with the receiver placed on the floor next to the sofa with my surrounds on either side of the sofa. Transmission is about 12ft, not quite line of sight. Then I started to hear a few pops and bumps. These were more distracting than I thought they'd be. However, I moved the receiver to the side table next to the sofa (line of sight to the transmitter) and have not heard any artifacts since. The one slightly odd feature is that the Denon Audyssey room correction puts these speakers as 20ft rather than 4ft from the listening position, presumably because of the delay. Seems to work as it sounds amazing. Overall, therefore, with one very minor positional tweak, this has worked beautifully and flawlessly for the last 3 weeks.

I use this for rear surround speakers, and it works exactly as I'd hoped. I have a triband wifi network and was concerned that there might be a conflict... but there's not. I've had the Dynasty for about a month and there's been no pops/clicks/noise in the surround speakers, nor has my wifi slowed. When pairing the Dynasty TX and RX I made sure I was streaming Prime videos on my TV's and computers in the hopes it would find and connect to an "empty" channel. It did, but I really don't know if the high level of wifi traffic helped or if I just got lucky. But the end result is that neither one affects the other. The TX and RX are about 20 feet apart from each other, and the arm of a couch blocks a direct line of sight but I've had no issues with dropouts or pops/noise. The amp itself is quiet too, no hiss at any level. It does have some processing delay... YPAO thinks my speakers are almost 30 feet farther from the measurement mic than they actually are, but my Yamaha A4A compensated and everything is time aligned in the end.

I have a 20x20 room with hardwood floors and no easy way to connect surround channel speakers. The metal chassis feels sturdy and well made. The units connect and operate on the 5.2 and 5.8 ghz radio frequencies provide lossless audio. They are not wifi or bluetooth. Setup is super easy and only requires turning both units on. You'll see the blinking light turn solid in a couple of seconds when both units are paired. There is a paring button if you need to change from the default 5.8 ghz frequency to 5.2 or to pair again. The unit will find the best channel with the selected frequency. I don't think they rescan for the best channel once set which would help when they encounter interference. I've turned the units on and off and they've always paired within seconds. I have the transmitter sitting on an 8 foot tv console opposite ends from a mesh wifi 6 wireless router that operates on 2.4 and 5.2 ghz with 15 feet line of sight to the receiver unit. The units were working fine for two months, no interference or noise until now. I get an occasional pop on the speaker. I've switched the included antennas to +8db gain, longer, wifi 2.4ghz and 5-5.8 ghz antennas and occasionally will get a pop. I use my AVR preamp RCA low level connections for left right surround and subwoofer connections to the transmitter. It's set at zero attenuation. It's good to know that this unit allows -6 and -12db attenuation if your signal level is too high and causing clipping. I haven't tried using the speaker level connections, but given the choice, RCA usually provides a cleaner signal with less chance of noise or clipping. Once connected, I ran my AVR Audyssey setup and had to turn the remote receiver volume up half way. I was hesitant to use a wireless connection, but I am happy so far with this unit's performance. The occasional pop is annoying but random and doesn't happen often. When it happens, I'll turn the unit on and off to force it to rescan for a clearer channel and pair itself. You can find reputable online videos and reviews that provide actual amplifier performance data which convinced me to give this a try. A hardwire connection to your AVR is always best if possible. But you need to factor in the cost of quality speaker wire and how to hide it. This is a good, near lossless solution that provides 2x50 watts rms per channel at 8 ohms, 2x100 watts rms at 4 ohms. If you need more power, you can bridge the amp on the receiver to get 100 watts rms at 8 ohms for one channel! Of course you will need to buy a second receiver and also bridge it for a second channel if you go that route. It would be nice if the units automatically scan for a clearer channel if there is interference. It would be nice if the unit auto sense for a signal to turn on and turn off after inactivity. I think they do go into a standby mode because I've never heard noise or popping when I'm not using the AVR, but their blue power lights are always on. Good but not perfect.

No wires across the living room floor or over the doors was the goal. Surrounds and Subwoofers aren't critical for sound quality so thought that going wireless would be feasible. -System is easy to set up. -No problems with range (although it really is only 6 fit). -Connectivity to speakers and subwoofer works great. -Gear itself seems pretty tough. -Isn't ugly and cause any issues with the decor. There are thoughts of delay, but I haven't experienced any. I do have a Yamaha and will do a YPAO check to have the receiver figure out the environment and adjust according. All in all, it's a great solution. A little pricey, but rather pay more and have no issues.

If you're looking at this then you probably don't want to run wires through your walls or under the carpet for your home theater. This set rocks. I bought it even though I thought it was expensive for what it is but the performance is awesome. There's no discernable lag in the sound. The range is great. I primarily use it in my bedroom but I did take it outside and played tunes from my main system and it held up fine! 30 feet through walls with no problem. The amplifier portion is probably a switching amp (class d) but it sounds very good. It's 50 watts per channel which is overkill for rear/surround channels but it held up fine as a primary outdoor amp. Careful with the volume though because it gets LOUD very quickly. Like in my room it's probably at 10%? There are no tone controls but it's a bassy sound. Very "full". The head unit sends the rear channel signal via RCA OR speaker inputs. And again. No discernable lag via either input. As a wireless solution it's awesome. As a basic stereo amp it is also awesome. I wish it had more of it's own features like bluetooth or streaming but then it would be a much different and more expensive product. If you're checking this out then you know what you need. It's not sonos. But it works so well for a wireless surround sound extension.

Got this to run my MartinLogan Foundation B1 rear surround speakers. Great concept for a product but it just would not work without random intermittent popping noises from the speakers. I tried gain management in both the receiver and from the wireless amp. I also made sure the transmitter and receiver had line of sight across the 15' distance I had them at. Even tried more powerful antennas. Nothing worked for me. So I replaced this setup with an SVS Tri Band + Fosi V3 amp + SVS Speaker Level Adapter and the difference is night and day. Absolutely no popping at all and all three components were just about the same cost as this kit. Despite the distracting popping issues on the WSA-5RP-PLUS, the actual sound quality is phenomenal when it wasn't popping and the amp has a nice amount of power for my speakers. And the build quality is excellent. It's very easy to use and setup and wiring it is simple. That's the only reason I'm giving it a 2. So I'm not sure if the issue is just poor range or just wifi interference, but with the popping speakers, I cannot use the product.

The unit is easy to set up and works well…except the popping in the rear surrounds! I am running a Denon 2800 AVR. Added +8db antennas and dropped the speaker levels in the AVR…but still popping and it’s absolutely annoying! This is the reason why I am returning the unit and going with the Nodelay. It’s 80/80w versus 100/100w but that is only 1db difference. AND 150 bucks cheaper . That’s my story and I am sticking to it!

First off, I did some research on wireless units and this system seemed to be the best available out there. The amp is robust and well made with banana plugs connections but the transmitter will only accept bare wire or pin connections....I have always used pin connections as bare wire always seemed to drive me nuts. Installation was straight forward enough and for me it was plug and play. Once all hooked up the blue light on the transmitter and amplifier starts to blink blue and then almost immediately, both units are solid blue indicating that you have a solid connection. Just make sure you don't have anything obstructing the line from the transmitter and amp and your good to go. I experienced no issues at all.....just crystal clear music with no distortion. Best part is now I have surround sound with no wires from my receiver. I think you will be most impressed with this system....I certainly was !!!

Works great with no discernable lag at all. Easy to setup right out of the box. I have 2 Polk bookshelf speakers and a Polk sub-woofer connected to it and it totally rocks! Please also note, if one of the channels is a lot louder than the other, consult your AV manual on how to reset your receiver as this will resolve this issue.

I should have listened to everybody’s reviews about the poor connection. I just hooked this thing up and I really really wanted it to work, but it does not work at all. The Wi-Fi hooked up immediately, but I cannot get it to play properly. Constant signal dropouts. I tried to switch channels, but I can’t seem to do that. I really need some help with this thing, because it does not work at all. Constant popping and dropouts. The single is very poor. Both units are less than 11 feet away from each other and there is a full line of sight. I just cannot get it to work. I’ve been pissing around with it now for about four hours, very sad about it because I really want this thing to work. If you are the manufacturer and you are listening could you please reply back with some help there has to be something I can do to fix this issue I do not want to have to send it back. ——update—— I finally figured out what was causing all the issues. This is very important because many of you will have the same problems. Make sure the transmitter is at least a meter away from your router or Wi-Fi device. The minute you get it discard the antennas that come with it. Go on Amazon and buy two aftermarket Wi-Fi antennas and install on device. The device still has pops here and there but very seldom does it happen. I am now happy with the product and will not return it. I am giving the device three stars because it was such a hassle trying to figure out how to get it working properly. Advice to manufacturer put a better Wi-Fi antenna on this device and your reviews will improve Drastically. The class D amplifier in this unit is excellent.
