I want to replace my speaker cables with "wireless cables". Some type of transmiter/receiber that i could plug at any audio out, and plug another to an audio in, and it would connect between the two. I'm not looking for a streaming solution, just "wireless cables" if you know what i mean. Ideas?

You can't have wireless speaker cables unless your speakers are active and therefore have their own amplifiers in them. You can obviously transmit signal to an amplifier that is physically wired to the speaker.

There are very few dedicated wireless audio sender products on the market. The products on the market tend to be combination video and audio senders. The cheaper end of the market are entirely analogue in nature and FM modulate audio and video signals and send them in the 2.4GHz band. The higher end of the market may convert the signal to digital and put the video through MPEG4 and probably run the audio through lossy compression as well. These boxes tend to run on 5GHz and are therefore not legal in most of the EU but are legal in the US.

Both types of boxes tend to interfere with any WiFi networks you are trying to run. Generally unless you've really got something that will let radio but not a cable through in the way it's easier and better quality to run a cable.

Consider transmitter/receiver combination through electricity cables. Maybe you have high voltage socket near the speakers. The speakers must be active though. Devolo.com has product of this type but there's no mention of it on his web.

right, i was simplifying


any names? thanks.

Thomson make some

Also One-For-All although they look tackier than the Thomson ones

I can't find anyone who sells this sort of thing based on quality or for professional use rather than on convenience and no one seems to publish a comprehensive spec sheet. This is usually a bad sign.

I was also interested in this to transmit my TV sound into my speakers wirelessly. My constraints were RCA to RCA wireless (not USB) and 5.8Ghz spectrum for higher quality. The ones I found were these: Amphony Audio Transmitter, Sonic Immersion Digital Audio Link. The latter is too expensive and the former looked more like a toy. I think it's surprising such a simple problem seems to have no solution yet.
