These are wired vs wireless speakers? They can be paired with my Iphone?

On the Audio Engine speakers: No, these units are NOT connectable to your iPhone or any other device via a bluetooth connection.They do have a Sony 1/8" input and RCA stereo input jack on the back, as well as an additional Sony jack on top of the unit along with a USB charging input. All-in-all, they are quite a good listening pair of speakers for the price. I'm keeping mine!

They are wired. Audioengine has a "wireless" solution sold separately that plugs into both a speakers & audio source if you desire something more freeroaming; however this is accomplished by plugging a bulky adapter to both source & speakers.

They have a power cable that will need to plugged in, then they have a speaker cable that goes from left to right. You have a 3.5mm input and a set of RCA jacks. They aren't Bluetooth so you won't pair them with an iphone directly but there is a power plug on the back that you could put an apple airplay into and run the 3.5 from it. I use them as computer speakers and they are pretty phenomenal.

They are wired but you can pair them (or any powered speakers) with your iPhone by plugging them into an Apple Airport Express. Then you just stream music to them using Airplay from your IPhone.

They're wired using standard speaker wire between one another and a 1/8" jack to your computer/device. There's also a 1/8" jack and a usb port (charging only) for another device input. They do not support bluetooth or any other wireless standard.

They are not wireless. But the sound quality is great. I will buy this speaker again if I need another one.

In my opinion, there is no such thing. Wireless speakers just don't have the sound quality/clarity of wired speakers. Also, the term "wireless" is misleading. Most wireless systems simply mean that there are no wires from the receiver to the rear speakers. Most of the time, those rear speakers are still connected to a wireless receiver in the back of the room by, you guessed it, wires. The reason is that speakers need to be powered somehow. There are a few options that will give you true wireless speakers, but they require batteries, and the speakers drain the batteries fairly quickly. Unless you have no way of running wires, I suggest getting a wired system or a good quality soundbar.

Definitely not wireless. They are great speakers. Have them on my patio. Only 3 visits from the local boys in blue telling me to turn it down!

hi Kim, Thanks for the question. Absolutely you can get iPhones to pair with these wireless outdoor speakers. Android, windows, anything with bluetooth transmitter like tablet or even laptop. Contact AV-Express for more information.

I my setup they are wired - not sure if they have the accommodations for a wireless setup. Excellent speakers for an "all wall-mounted look" and the sound is close to my floorstanding KEFs in my other other entertainment area.

Immediately, I would say these speakers were not designed for that kind of function. These speakers are more set up for an actual computer (be it a desktop or laptop; something with an operating system), but then you could use Apple's Remote app to control iTunes on said computer. Klipsch Music Center (KMC) would be what you'd want if a wireless speaker setup is what you are after. No dedicated subwoofer, however.

No. These are not Bluetooth speakers nor are they wireless. They are standard stereo speakers that connect to a standard stereo system amplifier via cables. You will need either Bluetooth speakers or Apple AirPlay compatible speakers for direct connection from ipod/iphone/ipad. Or, if you have a standard stereo system amplifier and these speakers, you can get a bluetooth device on Amazon or at Brookstone that you plug into the stereo amplifier. It can then receive the music/sound from your iphone, etc. via Bluetooth, and play it through your stereo system.

You will always need wireless speakers with all the required accessories. Wired speakers are always wired.

No, they are not wireless.......too bad....that would be awesome. The speakers sound great & it's super easy to set up.

They need to be connected to the receiver and then iPhone plugged into the receiver. There is no bluetooth or wireless capability

They are not wireless but their are wireless adapters made by other companies that work with any speaker. Keep in mind, though, that wireless home theater really has not been perfected yet. It is probably OK for rear speakers and subwoofers. But interference, delay and other issues are still a little too common. Also, wireless speakers are not really wireless, as they do require an electrical outlet.

If u have a Mac computer there is Bluetooth. So u can wirelessly use the speakers for: iPhone, android, tablet

No these are not wireless, you have to get a Sonos connect amp to make them work with that system, its $499-. The speakers have to be hard wired to the amp. Otherwise you need two Sonos Play 3's or 5's to do the same thing.

They are just outdoor speakers... You would have to have them hooked up to a stereo receiver or TV to play your iPhone or pandora. These have to be wired

The speakers do need to be connected to the system using the cords. Wireless means you can listen to music on an ipad or phone through your bluetooth connection without using wires to connect the device to the system.
