demons_wing · 6th December 2005, 10:24 PM

any thoughts on wireless speakers?..there are kits available for audio quality RF transmission and reception, BUT they arent cheap..anybody have any ideas?

there is a nice an working fm xmitter on

www.sound.westhost.com

build it,use standard fm reciever and fix its response to high power signals only or make yourself one.

alternatively

You can certainly try.. but ..No One... has yet manged more than low Mid Fi result.. regardless of cost/price
Lotsa Work to replace a couple of wires:-)

Personally, the only half way acceptable solution is to use something like an Airport Express to beam lossless digital to a DAC and Amp right next to the speakers.

Not quite wireless speakers but maybe enough..

Maybe with one Wifi media center per speaker, you can get lossless digital sound

LOL but the cost would deter most of us from doing this

there are several cheap studio monitors with spdif input... combine these with some wireless kit, posessing 1MHz bandwidth...
