Performance
The setup is much simpler than in previous Logitech devices; you have to just insert the CD in and click 5-6 ‘Next’ buttons. During setup itself it asks you what software and folders you want to synchronize with, so later on the remote screen displays ID3 info etc.
The total time needed for this was three minutes, and I was good to go. The system works quite simply – as in, you have to first plug in the Bluetooth adapter to a USB port, and then plug in the receiver wherever your main music system is. The receiver also charges the remote, so that's cool.
Once the system was set up, we proceeded to just turn it on, and of course blast the music to annoy everyone in the vicinity. The unit works perfectly at all places in the sphere of the transmitter, except at one spot, behind my CPU on the other end of the office (about 50 feet) there was some glitches in the sound.
This may have been a fault of the radio frequency disturbances, or due to my PC running some other software at the same time. To check the latter I stripped down to just streaming, and it was still there. Plus the stated range of Logitech is not happening; it’s less than 150 feet. The killer thing is that walls and glass don’t do sh*t to the sound, it's as clear as if it were one foot away.
The good thing is that DRM protected songs stream perfectly and, even better, there is a PC mode by which you can play almost any sound on your PC (which means Internet radio and all that). Last.fm streams and few others also come in with ease.
Conclusion
At Rs 15,995, the Logitech wireless DJ music system is not cheap. Like with the wireless remote, the unit will lose points for this. However, some sites quote $100 prices, so I don’t know what the scene is. But hear this – if you can afford it, go for it; it’s great.
