    Hey,

    I have a stereo in my living room, and a stereo in my bedroom.

    What I'd like to do is be able to put a cd (or whatever) on in the living room, and hear it off the stereo in my bedroom aswell.
    I'm looking for something that I can plug into the living room stereo, that will transmit to the bedroom stereo, via a wireless device obviously..

    Does anyone know of anything I can use? I know US Robotics have something like this, but I can only see it on sale in the states..

    Any advice appreciated..

    Kev.

    FM Transmitter would possibly be the best solution though these are AFAIK illegal in this country, regardless as to how low their wattage is.

    I was gonna suggest a video sender though you'd need a Phono Output in living room hifi. And some hifi's that did have phono outputs didnt output CD.

    Yes, FM transmitters are illegal as far as I know, even very low wattage.
    However for "research" purposs I bought one of these

    What do you guys think of these:

    If I plugged the antenna output into my cable tv distribution in the house and started plugging the stereos around the house into cable tv points would that server the same purpose? Or could I just set an antenna up in the attic?
