What You Need To Know About Wireless Computer Speakers

Wireless computer speakers are not that different from regular computer speakers. They produce sounds in the same way as any other speakers. The only difference is that instead of connecting to your computer with wires that look unsightly and can get tangled up in knots, the wireless speakers use a transmitter to send the signal to the speakers to be converted into sound.

Most wireless speakers use an FM radio signal to carry the sound information from the computer to the speakers. Because the FM radio signal can go through the wall, it is not necessary to keep the speakers in the same room as the computer. Different models of speakers have different ranges, but most of them can be placed 100 feet from the computer, and some models can be as much as 300 feet away.

If you want to place your wireless speakers far away from your computer, you can expect to pay more for speakers that can transmit the signal a greater distance. For most uses, a less expensive model of speakers that doesn't transmit as strong a signal will be sufficient.

Some models of wireless stereo speakers can be used as computer speakers, but it's hard to know which ones will work and which ones won't without trying them out. If you have a friend who has some wireless speakers they will let you borrow for testing purposes, you may be able to find out if they will work with your computer or not. Otherwise, it is probably best to stick with models that are made specifically for computers.

Most wireless speakers have a frequency of around 900 MHz. If you have other wireless devices in your home, especially cordless phones or baby monitors, you should check the frequency used by the wireless speakers before you buy them to make sure they won't interfere with anything else you are using. If the speakers use the same frequency as another device, you may get some feedback.

Most models of wireless speakers operate from batteries but also include an AC adaptor. If you know that you will not have access to an electrical outlet where you intend to use your speakers, you'll want to double-check to ensure that the speakers can use batteries for power.

Your wireless computer speakers can give you the flexibility of being able to use your computer to play music in another part of your home or even outdoors without dragging your computer to the location where you want the music. They can also help free up some of the cord mess that surrounds most computer stations.
