Wireless Rear Surround Speakers

    MODS: Can you leave this thread here as there is very very little traffic in the Audio section and I haven't gotten any responses since you moved it last time. Thanks.

    I want to turn my rear speakers into wireless speakers. My current set up is an Onkyo receiver with Onkyo speakers, 3 front, 1 sub and 2 rear.

    However it's not really practical for me to wire the rear speakers at the moment and wanted to hook them up wirelessly to the receiver.

    I've come across this which may help me.

    Would this result in much of a reduction in sound quality?? Would there be a time delay between the front and rear speakers?? I can adjust the distance on the receiver anyway maybe to overcome this.

    Any help would be appreciated, as well as where I can get the product above as it seems they don't ship to Ireland!!

    Thanks

    It's generally thought to be a 'bad idea' hence the lack of replies.

    To make sound the rears need power. If you want battery driven rears then fair enough, but if you can get power to your rears you can get speaker cable to them.

    if you really really can't get wire to your rear speakers then consider dropping your current gear and getting a 3.1 setup that does 'virtual' rear speakers. These aren't quite as good as real rears but should be better than a wireless and battery powered hack.

    I don't want to derail this thread but I agree about the audio section thing. This isn't avforums.com and why need all these subforums is beyond me.
