KattyIn the “included” list it states 6 AC cords...which kinda defeats the whole wireless thing (for me)

Desolation_AngelYou wouldn't want these to be battery powered anyway.
This eliminates speaker wires which all have to be routed to the receiver which is the bulk of the wiring. Hiding the power cables should be very easy through drywall through a few methods.
Sound quality will definitely be worse than building the a 5.1 system yourself via wired speakers.

neoricYeah I'm wondering what powers the back end. Wi-di? Something else? Surely not Bluetooth, there's nowhere near enough fidelity for that.

Desolation_AngelWould you really want a battery powered home theater system? Wireless means wireless audio, not wireless power same as Sonos and the rest of the world.

neoric@neoric Slow down there killer, be knowledgeable of what you speak :) . This stuff uses the WiSA tech. Same tech as B&O and Klipsch for their wireless systems pricing from 3 to 30k. This is just the entry level system with that tech onboard. This stuff is 24 Bit / 96Khz resolution and must meet the same requirements as wire to obtain Dolby and DTS certification. Its no slouch, just look at the reviews on sound quality. Considering everything in the system is tuned and matched vs. mixed manufacturers and long wire runs reducing quality starting out of the back end of a receiver, I've yet to find a better solution for the buck. Less than half the price of a Sonos system and 3x the features. I purchased mine nearly a year ago and I can tell you, it sounds better than many wired systems I've had for the price.

audiopileCorrect, wireless has one major problem in regards to signal strength/integrity. and that is having to punch through walls. I dont know who would have their 5.1 surround in different rooms so I dont see how wireless is a problem here. If you could run a wire from your receiver to your speakers straight along the ground you would, wire not use whyless.
