Rare Excellent Pair Recoton W100 Powered 30W Schotz Active Loudspeakers Complete

559 Recoton should conduct a contest for a musical theme for its newest product. I suggest ``Here, There and Everywhere`` by the Beatles, ``Do You Believe in Magic? `` by the Lovin` Spoonful, or perhaps Haydn`s ``Miracle`` Symphony. Place any of those on your turntable, tape deck or CD player, then go listen anywhere in the house, without any wires. Cue the opening bars of Richard Strauss` ``Also Sprach Zarathustra`` (the theme from ``2001``): We now present the Recoton Wireless 100 speakers.

Koss designed wireless speakers, but the Koss Kordless, as they are called, work only in a line of sight with the infrared transmitter. They operate on batteries, which free them from the AC outlet but also limit their audio power and make operation expensive. The well-known Bose Roommates turn any personal portable into a great stereo but must be wired directly to the sound source, whether a Walkman or a stereo component. The Recoton Wireless 100 speakers, comparable in sound quality to and only slightly larger than the Bose Roommates, employ your home`s AC wiring as speaker cable. Don`t worry about electrical shock. The AC wiring doesn`t actually carry sound but rather radio waves. Simply plug the Recoton transmitter, which is the size of a paperback book, into the headphone jack or line outputs of your receiver, amplifier or any other stereo component. Adjust the level control of the transmitter so that its red LED (light-emitting diode) flashes on the loudest sounds. Then take the pair of toaster-sized speakers, plug one into the wall and wire the second to the speaker output terminals of the first. Push the power ``on`` button and adjust the volume. The 12-watt-per-channel built-in amplifiers powering the 4.5 inch speakers in their bass-reflex enclosures fill the room with whatever your receiver or other sound source is playing. They work anywhere in the house, even out on the patio.

Carrier current technology-which means imposing radio signals on power lines-has been around for decades. Many college radio stations used to operate that way in dormitories.

The beauty of the Recoton system, designed by Larry Schotz, lies in its ability to transmit high-fidelity stereo sound. Schotz, who has contributed greatly to the field of FM-tuner technology under several brand names, designed a way to eliminate most noise and distortion while maintaining a wide frequency response. Schotz also designed the Recoton stereo TV adapter, ``F. `` Recoton guarantees almost the same frequency response as FM broadcasting (about 60-15,000 hertz), with a signal-to-noise ratio of 80 decibels and less than 1 percent distortion.

Only the absolutely best FM stations exceed 80 db signal-to-noise ratio. Further, the Wireless 100s provide 90 db of stereo separation, far better than FM broadcasting. Listening tests confirmed these claims, although occasional hum did creep into the right channel. For lowest noise versus distortion you must set the level control at the transmitter carefully.

A bit of static sometimes intrudes when the refrigerator kicks in or someone starts using electric power tools, but it`s insignificant. The Wireless 100s can`t challenge a good pair of speakers wired directly to your stereo, but they eliminate the need to rip up your floor, ceiling and walls to run speaker cable.
