NEW
I did try it with a standard wireless for home use and it works fine! Audio Device (1) S/PDIF OUT -> Wireless Video Transmitter VIDEO IN -> Reciever VIDEO OUT -> S/PDIF IN Audio Device (2) Even 96 kHz S/PDIF! Not bad for about 50$. Enjoy if you need

Enjoy if you need  Thanks for the note bizangoin. I've heard that this would work, good to have a data point that it does. And I suppose you could use multiple receivers around the house too... -------------------- Was that a 1 or a 0?

I have used a THOMSON VS470 Wireless device. It is a very common model.

That's actually very cool indeed. Thanks for sharing, this idea would never have occurred to me!
(and to think that a few years ago I worried about the limited bandwidth of coax cable possibly harming spdif connections....  )

Thanks bizangoin for sharing your experiences.
I also thought about how to transfer wirelessly an SPDIF audio signal. I've read this Video transmitter thing other sites too. Does anybody else found any little device which can do this task? I wonder how these wireless video sender sends the signal which is connected to it's Video input. Does it transmits the SPDIF digital audio totally transparently, bit-perfect? BTW I have "Logitech Wireless Music System for PC", this is good, but it transmits only analog sound. I also have the Logitech (Slimdevices) Squeezebox and Roku Soundbridge too, but I thought I'd connect the SPDIF outout of the PC too. |

It indeed using Blutooth, and it's transmits the sound digitally. It's basically an USB soundcard, transmits the signal digitally, and at the receiving end it just contains a D/A converter, and gives out an analog sound, that's it. It would be perfect if it could contain the SPDIF out also. |
