Yes, I have the Wavecom audio/video sender and it works great for transmitting a composite video signal and stereo audio from an output source (cable box, VCR, camcorder). I was very impressed with the quality of the video but the audio picks up some background noise or hiss in the process. It's fine for audio for video to a TV where the hiss is not really noticeable but I do not think it would work well for listening to music for anyone who is at all discerning about sound quality. I have not tried, it may be OK with a quality audio source input but I think the noise level is generated in the sending/receiving process. For a computer, obviously you need an A/V model (like 8500) or an A/V card. I got mine brand new on eBay (although I've seen them get overbid there, too...be smart!) for a lot less than Radio Shack sells the same basic unit. The Wavecom SR. is the same as mine except it has the ability to transmit the signal for the device remote so you can control it ( a VCR, etc.) from another room.
