Emprex AWV-698B AV Sender (transmitter and receiver)

An A/V receiver with the WOW factor

Advantages: Looks great, sounds awesome, feels awesome
Disadvantages: Detailed set up can be tricky - just as well it comes idiot proof!

Ok then, so I'm a lucky boy.... On my last birthday my wife decided that she wanted to treat me to a home cinema system so off we went to our local Richer Sounds store (they are VERY cheap and VERY helpful - recommended everyone pays them a visit!) with cash in hand an wangled a deal. I got this Marantz A/V Receiver , A Yamaha surround sound speaker package and a Panasonic DVD recorder for the princly sum of £350 - a bit of a discount from the £900 RRP! I'll be reviewing each product in turn so check out my other reviews if you want a full system checkup! So into the review of the A/V Receiver: 1) The Theory I wanted a reciever that not only looked good, but that also provided the output and poer to match.

No different to other AV sender in the market

Review of Philips VL 1200 Video Sender

Sky in every room

Advantages: Has remote return facility
Disadvantages: Doesn't like other wireless devices

I have seen video senders (used to send video and audio wirelessly between devices) from years ago and they were expensive and not very reliable, with picture break up being common. Also most were unable to control the sending device using a remote. Whilst browsing round my local Tesco I happened across the Technika AV104 video senders at just under £20 a pair. What comes in the box One AV transmitter base One AV receiver base Two AC Power adapters (Plugin block type) Two Scart to 2 RCA phono cables (1 for transmit and 1 for receive) One Infra Red extender cable - capable of supporting 3 different devices. User Manual Specification - taken from the supplied manual Operating Frequency - 2.4GHz to 2.4835GHz (4 selectable channels) Modulation - FM Video Level (in and out) - 1 V p-p @ 75ohm Audio Level (in and out) - 1 V ...
