Do you have to have the remote to pair the speaker? I'd like to use this outside and don't want to leave the remote out.

Hi, Matthew: No, I don't have a remote. I paired the light/speaker using my cellphone, where some of my music is stored and from which I can stream Amazon or Google music. I suspect you can do the same. Joseph Green

I just purchased 2 of these and no you don't need the remote The remote just controls volume in which you can control from your phoneThe remote also shuts the light off just when you want to use it as a speaker and the remote also dims the light.. But no you do not need a remote for it to function

You may need the remote at the initial pairing..however once your device recognizes the speaker it is not necessary to have the remoteYou can turn the speaker on and off with a switch but if you turn it on and want to keep the speaker on but not the light...you will need the remote to turn off the lightHope this was helpful!

Matthew, I've been able to pair it by turning the "lamp" on and off with the light switch, but with the remote it's a lot easier!

Hello, and thank you for the inquiry. The speakers are not wireless. They require outdoor speaker wire which are not included with the speaker.

Hi Toni,Thanks for the question. With these Outdoor Wireless Speakers, they do require a Bluetooth signal to operate. Yet there are bluetooth transmitters that can be attached to your receiver that could send the signal to these speakers. Contact AV-Express for more information.

Thats to pair your phone and the speaker but u won't need it bc once you turn the speaker on it automatically using the pairing button. And then u just connect it to your device.

I returned this on wk after the purchase. Yes you can power it on remotely. But think twice before you buy this. I switched now to a Bluetooth speaker from Sony.

It does come with a remote and sound is very good. If you have an audio out RCA it should work fine that is how I have it installed.

Yes it does have a remote. It also has great sound. An excellent unit for the price and size.

every time I use this device i have to take it off my speaker and place back on and pair it again. It's really annoying and it always says that it is not connected enough though it's already on my speaker. So yes unfortunately you will have to pair it every time you use it.

If I left the speaker on when I cut thought off, it automatically cuts on and off with the light switch. It also usually auto connects to the last thing had paired with it if that device is on. Really nice...I rarely touch the remote...just click the light switch as I enter the room and with my iPad and Bluetooth on it just starts playing.

I bought mine a few years ago and my speakers are not bluetooth capable. They are fantastic speakers though and I love them. Use them on the patio, garage...wherever!

No, but if you are using it with your phone/mp3 player via bluetooth, the phone/mp3 player essentially serves as the remote

It is similar to your phone and bluetooth device, it possible to have remote work with another speaker or the speaker work with another remote. So the two have to talk to each other and establish a good communication link between the two devices.

Yeah you can. You might want to get a long 3.5 mm cable so you can put it in front. There is no remote, I have had mine for about 6 months and I can still say they sound good and are a great buy.

I used the bluetooth outside of my house and it worked. As for the system and speakers i would not recommend. I would recommend spending a couple extra dollars on speakers and look for a bluetooth adaptor to add to an auxiliary port

No, this is just the speakers, you need to connect them to a receiver (amplifier). The receiver probably will have a remote control, not the speakers.

That's what I've found. Doesn't make sense as there is a power button on the remote? It's not been that big a deal to me since I mounted the speakers in their own little "houses" on my patio and are easily accessible still. The houses look kind of like a bird house without the front. That way I'm not worried about the rain.

It didn't for me, so I just bought a cheap Universal Remote and that did the trick. The speaker will turn on and then off by itself if you use the optical port.
