My amazing dad has been working on a product for over two years now. It’s the first- ever WIRELESS home speakers! Check out the Sound On website!

The sound is incredible, and the price is unreal ($599). He’s even got QVC going live with the speakers in the near future. But if you don’t want to wait for QVC, check out Costco. This week they’re doing a trial run in 10 stores around the country!

I’m SUPER proud of my dad! To follow a product from design to retail is such a HUGE endeavor, and he’s done it again!

Here’s the write up;

SoundOn’s WHT-510!

The WHT-510 is the world’s first true 5.1 Channel Wireless Home Theater System, with absolutely no speaker wires. The WHT-510 uses advanced 2.4GHz technology transmitting audio data from one module/transmitter to 6 speakers/receivers (Front Center, Front Left, Front Right, Right Surround, Left Surround, and Sub Woofer). Using Dolby Pro Logic II, the WHT-510 turns any room into a Surround Sound Theater. With the WHT-510 you can enjoy watching movies with Dolby Surround Sound, live concerts just as if you were there, and all other audio with the quality sound you deserve.

  • 6 Speakers (C, FR, FL, SR, SL, SW)
  • 75 ft. Range of Use from Center Speaker/Transmitter
  • 840 Watts
  • 5.1 Channels
  • 2.4GHz
  • Dolby Pro Logic II
  • 1-2-3 Solution (1. Connect Audio, 2. Plug into Power, 3. Power On)
  • Price: $599

If this product is up your alley, you can find them at any of these 10 Costco! If you see them, post a comment! My dad would love it! Bringing a product to retail needs all the encouragement you can get!

    Wow! Forest is so excited. We have been talking about speakers forever, but I hate wires running around the room. We wish we lived near one of those Costcos…we’ll just have to wait until we can buy them online. Your family is so smart I just can’t get over it : )

    OHHHH man, my boyfriend is gonna FLIP OUT!!! We just moved into a new house and he hasn’t set up our sterio system because it’s such a pain - he keeps complaining that he’s gonna have to run wires through the attic and under the carpet etc. This is perfect for him! And your dad is adorable! I watched the video - how funny!! And your laugh is the sweetest! Contagious if I ever heard a contagious laugh!!!!! I love it!

    How fun that you guys are so excited! I’m SUPER excited too. I think it’s the best thing–you dn’t need to hire an electrician or get spiders in your hair while in the attic. I honestly can’t believe someone hasn’t already done this!

    And the tiger story is something he’s been telling me since I was old enough to remember any thing. :) It’s the BEST story. :)

    Marie, you are such a sweetie! Thanks for those words!

    Did anyone see the display at Costco of the wireless speakers? And even better, has anyone bought them and tried them yet! So excited about this!
