Hey all,
I want my parents to get surround sound for downstairs! But they are complaining about the wires, which are nothing really!
So i want to know if there is a wireless solution?
Thanks ninja.gif

Just google for it, you can get a decent 5.1 setup for about £70 - £90
But keep in mind about the batteries for speakers etc...

type in wireless 5.1 in google and you will get them

do your parents know anything about systems? Find a decent system, and then convince them it's a wireless one.
...then, you install it, and hide the wires carefully... tongue.gif

I found a system with wireless real speakers.

Front and center speakers are wired, but I doubt it will bother anyone. ninja.gif

Yes, most systems with wireless will only have wireless rear and will not be as cheap as you are looking for. You also have to realize the sound isn't too good on the wireless speakers. It's not bad, but it's not the same as wired.
