Features and Specifications: An easy iPod solution! Our most powerful wireless speaker, the OSD WR800 Rock Speakers kick out seriously big sound in a wireless package. Sold in pairs, the OSD-WR800 all-weather wireless rock speaker is an easy and effective way to bring sound outdoors without having to run wires. These speakers use the 2.4 GHz-2.48 GHz frequency range, which is less likely to experience interference from other wireless devices like cordless phones. This all-weather speaker has a range up to 300 feet, although distance may vary depending on the environment.
A Note on Wireless Routers
Although rare, some customers have experienced interference with certain models of wireless internet routers. If you experience interference with your wireless router, OSD recommends moving the transmitter that came with your speakers as far away as possible from the wireless router and cycling through the frequency channels several times.
Connects to iPods and Other Portable Players!
OSD Audio makes it easy to listen to portable music players like iPods while you're sunning in the backyard. Each wireless speaker includes a transmitter and mini cable that plugs into an iPod, iPad, laptop computer and other mobile devices with a headphone jack.It's that easy!
Ready to Rock?
The OSD-WR800 Rock speaker includes a sturdy 8" polypropylene cone woofer with butyl rubber surround, providing excellent bass response. This system comes with two rock speakers, audio transmitter, power supply for the rock speakers and transmitter, remote control, and audio cable.
Easy Installation with No Wires from the Audio Source to the Speakers
Our wireless speakers do not need to connect directly to your audio source, making installation a snap. Keep in mind, however, that the two speakers are connected via speaker wire. The reason for this is that an amplifier is built into a main speaker which acts as the power source for both speakers. This is why the rock speakers must be wired together.

Questions and Answers:  By Daniel J Neff from Cleveland, OH on June 25, 2012 I purchased the outdoor wireless speakers on 5-21-2012 and they system worked well for two weeks than for some reason the AC power (120vPower Supply) unit stopped working. I need to knwo waht needs to be done to get this replaced under warranty.
Dan Neff OSD AUDIO #5626972600 By Customer Service - Q&A on June 26, 2012Answer:Hi Daniel:
Please contact Brennan at brennan@osdaudio.com to talk about us replacing your Power Supply. It is covered under warranty.
TLBy Martin from Houston, TX on April 30, 2012 Your ad says that you expect tohae more on April 29 but item still shows out of stock. Do you have a new date of when you are expecting to have in stock. Time is of the essence for me now. I need to make a decisions in the next 2 days. Please advise, thank you. Martin By Customer Service - Q&A on May 2, 2012Answer:Hi Martin:
The Container is in the US, we are waiting for its release through customs. So any day now, keep your fingers crossed.
TLBy Paul from New Hampshire on December 25, 2011 Just got the WR800 wireless speakers for Christmas. I'm trying to hook them up to a Sony amplifier. My speaker outputs on the amplifier do not take RCA type jacks. They take raw speaker cable connections. In addition, there are four speaker posts on the back of the amplifier that need to get connected. Left speaker positive and negative, and right speaker positive and negative. If I hook the WR800 antenna to on of these connections, say left positive and negative, I get no sound. I know everything works because I can connect my iPod and get sound. I'm thinking my receiver needs to have all four speaker posts connected in order for it to work. What am I missing? By Customer Service - Q&A on December 27, 2011Answer:Hi Paul,
The WR-800 is a powered speaker system. That is why it worked when you connected your iPod directly to it using the 3.5mm to 3.5mm audio cable that comes with the unit. A second cable is supplied for connecting to an RCA (R + L) output (this is un-amplified) from a receiver. You cannot connect this to the Speaker level (amplified) output from the receiver. If you supplied us with the model number of the receiver, we could answer this. Check your owner's manual to see if you have a low level RCA output. I hope that helps.
TL/MABy James Gray from Clemmons, NC on October 4, 2011 Can you expand your system by adding more speaker pairs? If so, can you order the speaker pairs separately? How would they be listed for ordering? By Customer Service - Q&A on October 4, 2011Answer:Yes you can add more pairs to the system, they share the same transmitter in the range. You can just order another pair and don't use the transmitter. We don't have sku for speakers without the transmitter.
By Jason from brea, CA on October 7, 2011 I was using wireless rock speakers for outside. But that didn't work when the neighbors have the same thing and the two kept interfering with each other. We had to take ours down. Looking for something we can use that will not interface with the neighbors. He would turn his on and cut our out and we have their music playing in ours. By Customer Service - Q&A on October 7, 2011Answer:It is easy to solve this problem, you need to push the channel selector button on the remote control (there are 8 channels to choose from) until you hear your music.
Note: The speaker always picks up the closest transmitter signalBy Mark from Chicago, Illinois on December 29, 2011 Bought as a gift for my mother and we can't hear any music. I have pressed the channel switch on the transmitter and repeatedly pressed the on/off switch on the remote and I get static on one channel and no sound out of the others. I have connected to an I-Pod and also tried the RCA cables to a reciever and get the same results. What am I missing? Is the product defective? By Customer Service - Q&A on December 30, 2011Answer:Hi Mark:
I am sorry you are experiencing issues. Please contact our RMA department, brennan@osdaudio.com. he can discuss troubleshooting the product. It just may be a bad transmitter in which we can send you a replacement. You can call Brennan directly at 1-888-779-4968 x120 to dicsuss.
TLBy Kevin from Rescue, CA on July 2, 2012 Is the transmitter also weatherproof? Also, how long is the transmitter's cord? My yard slopes downhill and I'd like to mount the transmitter on top of my patio cover to create an unobstructed path. I'm hoping that the cord is long enough to allow me to do so. By Customer Service - Q&A on July 2, 2012Answer:Hi Kevin,
The transmitter is not weatherproof. The audio cords that come with the unit are only about a foot and a half long but certainly could be extended. You do have a power supply that has to be plugged into a wall outlet which can also be extended. These are RF 2.4 GHz frequencies so they are fairly strong. You could place the unit on top of a cabinet to help. We do have 30-day performance guarantee. Just make sure to save the original boxes.
TLBy kurt from Santa Barbara, CA on May 8, 2012 I would like to use a solar panel and battery to power this system. How much power does this require DC Volts and Amperage.
Thanks! By Customer Service - Q&A on May 8, 2012Answer:Hi Kurt:
The transmitter uses a AC-DC Adapter rated as follows:
Class 2 Transformer
Input: 12V AC 60Hz MAX 7W
Output: 4.5V DC, 300mA
There is also a AC-DC adapter for the Main Speaker:
Input: 100-240V, 50/60Hz 1.5A
Output: 14.5V.... 4.0A
There is a cable that connects the two speakers providing power to the second speakers wireless Receiver and internal power amp.
TLBy Toby from MN woods on May 11, 2012 Awesome sounding speakers. But when using them the transmitter knocks out my D-Link wireless network. So I cannot listen to internet radio over this system on a wireless network connected computer. Is there a fix for this problem?
Toby By Customer Service - Q&A on May 13, 2012Answer:Hi Toby:
Did you attempt to connect the transmitter to a computer that is hard wired to the Router? Did you try searching for another channel to sync up or did the problem occur no matter what channel you connected with? I have to talk to our internal tech to see if he might have any ideas.
TLBy Samantha from Pittsburgh, PA on May 13, 2012 I am setting up a wireless audio system throughout my house using airports and the apple remote. Does this wireless register on the remote? or does it have some wireless enabler on it? By Customer Service - Q&A on May 13, 2012Answer:Hi Samantha:
I do not believe you would be able interface with the WR-800 directly but certainly you would have control over whatever source you are connecting the transmitter to.

I love these speakers!
May 7, 2013
The speakers are clear, crisp and voluminous. The only thing I don't like is the transmitter. It's a bit cheap and when you turn the speakers off using the remote, there is no visual indication that the speakers are off (i.e., the light on the transmitter doesn't go off...it stays on). Other than that, very pleased so far (only have had them for a week so time will tell). Out of the box, the were everything I expected them to be.
Pros:Sound quality
Cons:Transmitter

Very nice quality outdoor speaker
April 12, 2013
The speakers were ordered one day and came the next! WOW! These were purchased to have good quality sound around our pool and outdoor area. Upon opening them, I was pleasantly surprised how heavy they were, which is a huge bonus as we get heavy winds living on a canyon in Northern Ca. They were packaged very well and came in perfect condition. I am usually intimidated by electronics and thought I might need assistance installing, but, the installation was simple and we had good music in less than 1/2 hour. It is still winter here, so the real test will come with warmer weather around the pool.
Pros:Weight was substantial, sound quality is excellent, even better with volume
Cons:Nothing to dislike.
Best Uses:poolside and outdoor

Pricey, but worth it!
August 4, 2012
Set these up just off the pool deck, in the
shrubs--guests work to figure out the music source and are
surprised to know it is the "rocks." I've had these speakers for a
month now, and I absolutely love them. These rock speakers are
bigger than most I've seen before. I do think they are a little bit
pricey at 300 dollars, compared to other similar products. Also,
the two speakers are connected to each other by wire, so you'll
have to dig a trench or camouflage somehow. And of course, they
require a power source--this just to warn that wireless really
means from the audio source only. Those caveats notwithstanding, I
LOVE these speakers and would buy again in a minute. Had a party
for my great niece today, and several people commented on how good
the musice was.
Pros:Great sound, Great volume, Easy To Set Up

Great speakers, high quality. Look great, nice size and

home from college and we put them around the pool and they really
complete the back yard....sound quality is second to none. Was
afraid of tinny sound, not with these!! Great base, and midrange.
Would get more and highly recommend to anyone and everyone!!!
Remote control is a great feature, and the whole thing is water

January 19, 2012
Had Speakers and Transmitter installed in a heavily
wooded area for music enhancement of a drive through light show.
Sound quality was excellant,(The local deer didn't appreciate it
though) Two installation factors to keep in mind. 1. MUST be Line
of Sight to the receiving speaker,(It states this in the operating
instructions) We had to clear a path of tree limbs, ground debris
etc, or raise the Transmitter above it. Can't see over a slight
hill. 2. Rain seems to distort the signal. For our application,
this caused no complaints,(except from the deer) but I could see
where this might be a problem to others. This speaker system was an
excellant solution to our needs, we are talking now about expanding
to other areas of the light show for futher enhancement. Great
Product!
Pros:Quality Construction, Easy To Use, Resistance to weather, Easy To Setup, Excellant Sound Quality
Cons:Rain can distort signal, MUST be line of sight

Well designed & manufactured!
January 3, 2012
System is well designed and manufactured. I really like
the substantial connectors and the consideration to keep out
moisture. The only issue I had was that one of the screw that hold
the speaker wire onto the connector had a splotch of the speaker
outer coating dripped onto it. The screw head almost stripped
before I could free the screw. Once freed the wire screw worked as
intended.

These speakers sound great and can easily fill a medium

a reliable connection. Note: There is no L/R/Mono or Audio

Great Sound
November 3, 2011
We use these outdoors by our stand alone spa. With the
spa running, we do have to turn the volume up pretty high to hear
them over the bubbling water. They just go above that sound, but
the volume level could be just a bit louder, other than that, they
are pretty fantastic. This is where the remote control that comes
with it turns out to be very handy. With the remote control you can
turn the speakers on or off, and also adjust the volume of them up
or down. Now my wife & I can go outside , relax in the spa
& listen to our favorite music. If you have a tv outside
mounted up by your patio or near an outside free standing
structure, and if you set your receiver on cable sound, you could
also send the sound of a footbal, basketball, or baseball game
outside to those speakers as well. We have it hooked up to our
inside surround receiver on our zone 2 output and can be listening
to either the same sound as indoors, or something comepletey
different. It is hooked up so we have a choice of, the am-fm tuner,
cable box sound whether music, a tv show, movie, or sports, cd
music, or music from an I-pod. Thanks OSD, you made enjoying our
spa so much better, all without having to run wires to our outside
just to receive that enjoyment.
  Pros:Quality Construction, Easy To Setup, Easy To Use, Love the remote control, Wattage output great, They blend in, Good bass, Low Power Consumption
Cons:Loudness could be higher, Sometimes they cut out
Best Uses:Around a pool, Outdoor entertainment, Upgrade, Backyard party music, By the spa, Replacement

Easy set up and great sound quality. The biggest downfall
is interference in the wireless connection. Just a casual walk
through the wireless zone causes major issues. We had them on our
pool deck and walking in other areas, outside the wireless path,
would cause interference due to vibrations.

These Wireless Rock Speakers Rock!
July 8, 2011
There are not many outdoor wireless rock speakers in the
market, especially the 8" version. I think Klipsch and Creative
Labs sell them but way to expensive. Having purchased the wired
rock speakers (RS850) from OSD before I go ahead ordering these new
8" wireless speakers. They look good, easy to setup, plug into my
ipod (stereo headphone), I placed the speakers about 150ft from my
house and they sound beatiful, the bass is rich. I gave it four
stars because compring to my wired rock speakers, they seem a
little "digital" sound, but overall I'm very happy about
it.
