I need to find a quality solution to connect my surround speakers to my 5.1 amplifier wirelessly. To keep my wife happy I have agreed to find an alternate solution to stringing speaker cable across the front room. I have seen plenty of 2.4ghz solutions but frankly I have not been impressed by any 2.4ghz devices as they tend to pick up alot of interference and they really screw up the wifi network. I don't need a lot of range since the front room will be relatively small but signal quality is priority. Can anyone recommend any good solutions for this?
Wireless surround is never actually wireless at all. In fact you can creat more of a wired mess using wireless speakers. The speakers require a signal in order to drive them. While the signal is sent "wirelessly" from the front to the back, you still need to send the signal from the wireless reciever to the actual speaker. Plus, the wireless reciever must be powered, and therefore have to be located near power outlets.
Find better ways to run your wires to the back, either by utalizing trim around floors and doors, or using decrative covers for the wires.
