I notice the antennas come out the back. I'm mounting these in a rack so they'll stay inside the box I assume. Any issues with range or interference?

We are having some issues now that ours in mounted in a box. We are sourcing coax cables to mount the antennae outside of the box.

Hi Scott, you would need the antennas to get a good transmission. You'll get a better sound when the box is elevated.Eugene

We have the main box in a seperate room behind our stage. The range is fantastic. No interference. The microphone is able to move about the room and the sound is clear.

I tried the same thing... Audio cut in and out. However, it even had issues when I left the front and back doors open, and it could have been the audio connection ports. Not sure if it was the box, or a defective unit, but I couldn't get a good quality sound. I ended up sending it back and getting the 733 instead. I already had one 733, and it worked great. (Plus the antennas are on the front, and get great signal when the front door is open, which it is when in operation. The company had no problem with the return, and the 733s work great.

Hey Brandon- The range on these is awesome! I had a gated community that I had direct line of sight to the antennae that was mounted on a pole 10' high, and was well over 500'. Let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks... Matty

I do get some interference, in the form of slower throughput, but separating the control box from the Wi-Fi-equipped computer helps significantly, as does forcing Wi-Fi onto channel 11.My base station is NOT near the speakers, but testing with them at least in the same room didn't show much improvement. In some cases they might "see" each other and pick non-busy channels. Different routers might behave differently, too.Bottom line - they're great speakers, but the Wi-Fi interference is a major flaw in something aimed at being PC speakers!

I just got them and hooked them up. My plasma is causing interference when bright as well. Does moving the unit away from the tv help? Would like to explore fixes before returning.Thanks

They are very sensitive. We have yet to get a channel that doesn't have interference. Not sure if this is coming from our Wi-Fi but not entirely happy with the purchase because of the reception.

Well Dave, I'm not an audio technician but i would feel confident in saying they are shielded because my cell phone is always near the speakers and I never had a problem with buzzing, interference or feedback...I hope that was the "feedback" you were hoping to find.

Should work just fine; direction doesn't matter. Just make sure you have a good "coax grounding block" (also available on Amazon). I'm using them for my Dish antenna which have the grounding blocks already installed.

I don't have much room for the center channel. I have it just behind the plasma kept on a stand. I don't see any interference, so assume there is no problem due to the shielding. I might be missing little on the sound, since the speakers are behind the TV, but these sound really good for its size.

I have both and haven't been able to detect any interference. Use them for video gaming.

I have had no issues with the speakers interfering with phone reception. I now have 4 relatives using them and they are a godsend when they watch T.V.

No static or interference if you can find a spot on the radio dial that isn't in use by a broadcast station.Occasional slight interference as you drive through strong signals. Overall not a problem where I live.

Hello Brandon, yes that was my idea too. I have attached an 9 dbi antenna that was 5 times the size of the original antenna. And there was totally no difference in range

Sorry, I tossed mine a while back because the antenna they painted on was of poor design. Guess the people who designed it did not check wave lengths or SWR. They may have corrected that since I bought mine. Complain to the seller, they may just give you another one.

every area has different characteristics, and RF interference, my signals are making it over 50 miles and sharp, if the broadcast towers are unobstructed between you and them, i.e. on top of tall buildings it shouldn't be a problem, there are online resources to give you estimated channel reception, take what it says and the Mohu should out perform that substantially

Environment is everything. If you have a lot of metal or tree interference it tends to drag your range to nothing, on any radio. Short antennas work best for these area. I know that's counter intuitive but that's the way it works.

at antennaweb (org) I determined I needed a small multi-directional antenna. I got this with my dvr+ and tried it inside and it worked for most of the channels but then I placed it outside under the eave (8' away) and have rarely had a problem. you can also read about antennas at the fcc (gov) site.

Antenna cables are cut to the wavelength -keeps the SWR down, so 1/2 wavelength, ect. are ok. Hope that helps
