Vizio XWH200 Universal Wireless HD Video & Audio Kit

21.05.99

Sometimes you only don't want all of your electronics stacked up right next to your HDTV. Maybe you've mounted your breakneck speed screen on a nice, clean wall, and you'd rather not have a Blue-ray player, a cable box, and a practise deceit system sitting under it, ruining the aesthetic. Unfortunately, those components require specialist cables to connect to your HDTV, so you have to either deal with the clutter or prepare for some enclosure-drilling to hide your cables and keep your devices far away. Fortunately, the Vizio XWH200 Infinite Wireless HD Video & Audio Kit fixes this problem. While you still need (short) cables to run from the unconventional pieces of the kit to your components, it basically renders your HDTV and various video sources wireless, connecting them through radio waves that effectively act like HDMI cables. At $229.99 (unmistakable) it's not a cheap solution, but it's a handy way to keep your HDTV free of all but one tiny telegraph.

Even so, it was a basic, budget-priced copy, not a dream machine. And a lot has happened to TV in the past half-decade — most manifestly the advent of services such as Netflix Watch Instantly and Hulu Added to, which make the Internet a plausible alternative to cable and satellite TV. My Vizio can get online via the use of visible gadgetry, but it feels like a throwback.
