Convert Speakers to Wireless

Possibly OK for rear speaker but are they suitable for the main speakers? In a surround sound system the rear speakers are not as critical in terms of quality (or power) as the front left, right and centre speakers. The spec gives total harmonic distortion < 0.5% @ 1 W but nothing at 25W.

I assume that the two front speakers are either side of a room/tv/etc. so using one TX/RX you are only going to save one pair of speaker wires as both speakers would need to connected to the back of the RX unit via cable, with on speaker having a long cable. This is assuming that you not going to have one Tx/Rx pair of boxes per speaker.

How does the existing amplifier communicate with the wireless speakers?

I think that'd be a marketing device - it's aimed at users of surround speakers. Surround speakers aren't intrinsically any different load-wise than any other speakers. Often the rear speakers are identical to the manufacturer's front/stand mount speakers.

OK, thanks - that's not brilliant.

Yes. The problem is the distance between the speakers and the stereo amplifier.

Ah yes, good point. As it happens, I don't think that'd be a problem in this case. The speakers are quite close together on a big bookshelf.

"Batshit crazy"

-- “It is not the truth of Marxism that explains the willingness of intellectuals to believe it, but the power that it confers on intellectuals, in their attempts to control the world. And since...it is futile to reason someone out of a thing that he was not reasoned into, we can conclude that Marxism owes its remarkable power to survive every criticism to the fact that it is not a truth-directed but a power-directed system of thought.” Sir Roger Scruton
