About the Panasonic SH-FX85
This wireless speaker kit from Panasonic works only with compatible home theater systems, including the SC-PT750, SC-PT950, and others. If you have one of these systems, you can add the SH-FX85 to enjoy your music wirelessly in another room.
The two-piece 'FX85 includes a small digital transmitter that plugs into your compatible system, plus a powered speaker module that pulls in your music wirelessly and plays it back in a secondary listening location. Place the speaker module in your kitchen for warm stereo sound while you cook, or in your exercise room for motivating tunes. Use the front-panel buttons to skip to the next track or tune your system to your favorite radio station. You can also connect your MP3 player or Panasonic's optional iPod® dock for more music options.
