Sitecom Wireless Audio Transmitter (WL-060) Review

Posted on 2008-11-12 18:12:53 by Thomas De Maesschalck

Sitecom’s Wireless Audio Transmitter is a no-frills approach to wireless music. While it does let you play audio files stored on your computer, it takes a rather rudimentary approach. By this we mean that you still have to take control of your audio files from your computer - there’s no remote control or media management software supplied. So, whatever you’re running on your computer, that is then mirrored on your stereo. While this solution may be exactly what you’re looking for, others may not want to boot and operate their PCs in order to listen to music in another room. On the plus side, it avoids the problem of playing back DRM audio file formats and navigating Internet radio, podcasts, and premium online music services from a remote control. Furthermore, it transmits audio in lossless 44.1kHz, 16-bit format (the same quality as an audio CD), which is fine for all but the most discerning of listerners. Sadly, the WL-060 isn’t expandable to multiple rooms - you’ll have to buy another unit. Simple but effective, the WL-060 is probably the easiest and most economical way to send music from your PC or laptop to your hi-fi.
