A wireless speaker home theater system allows you the freedom to place your speakers anywhere in a room without having to figure out how to hide the speaker wires.

There are two types of wireless speaker home theater systems – add-on systems and integrated systems.

Add-On Wireless Home Theater System

If you already have a home theater system you can purchase an add-on system consisting of a transmitter, a receiver, and surround-sound speakers if you don’t already have them.

The transmitter is connected to the home theater amplifier and sends out the audio signal to a receiver. The receiver, which is connected to the rear speakers, picks up the signal from the transmitter and sends it to those speakers.

Most wireless home theater systems have front speakers and a subwoofer that are connected to the amplifier with audio cables, and rear speakers that are connected to the receiver to create surround-sound audio.

You can purchase a decent amplifier/receiver system for less than $100.

Integrated Wireless Home Theater System

If you’re in the market for a new wireless home theater system, you can purchase a complete system consisting of an amplifier with built-in transmitter, a front center speaker, two front side speakers, a subwoofer, and two rear surround-sound speakers. Some systems also include a DVD player.

Prices for an integrated wireless home theater system start at $175 and go up to $2,000.

Comparing Wireless Home Theater Systems

The best way to get the best price on a wireless home theater system is to try them out in person, then go comparison shopping online.

Start by taking a trip to your local discount or electronics store so you can try out the various wireless home theater system models. Test the controls and listen to the models in your price range until you find the one you like best.

After you find a system you like, go home, fire up your computer, and start comparison shopping online.

Comparing models and prices at an online comparison shopping site will save you countless hours of going store to store or surfing all the Internet stores. Here, in one place, you can find prices for everything under the sun from hundreds of online and offline stores.

The comparison shopping site I use will not only give you a price comparison on wireless home theater systems, it will also give you product specifications, reviews by audio experts, and consumer reviews by people who actually own the product so you’ll know how good the system is.

When you find the store with the lowest price, you can get consumer reviews of that store so you’ll know if it’s reputable and will give you good service.

Some stores even have a lowest-price guarantee so if you find a better price later you can get a rebate on the price difference from that store.

I’ve purchased a number of high-ticket items this way and have always gotten good service and a great price.

I moved into a new place and began the process of setting up my home theater system. I planned on feeding the speaker wire inside the walls, but found that was impossible (townhouse with cement walls between each one.) So now I have a pair of rear speakers on the wall (since I already punched the holes in the wall to hang them) with wire hanging to the floor. I’m looking for a system with a truly wireless set of rear speakers. The devices that they sell to make your rear speakers wireless won’t work for me because I’ll still have the wire running from that up the wall where I have them hanging. Any ideas?

You can take a look at the KEF’s wireless system that uses existing rear speakers, since you already have them. I don’t have it personally, but I heard good things from one of my friends. He recommended it. Below is the the website.

What Home Theater Systems have wireless rear speakers and 2 – 3 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output?

none of the wireless solutions are really practical or up to par yet.

Rocketfish makes a device, but it isn’t highly rated.

For a receiver I suggest a Onkyo SR-606

Pair it with and infinity series of speakers all the way around(they auction way under retail on ebay via the company) and you should be set.

wireless speakers. Is there a devise that is wireless that has speaker plug-ins?

You can but it’s very expensive and you loose a lot of quality. The wire to speaker carries an amplified signal from your receiver/amp. A wireless base station would need to convert the analog signal to digital, transmit that signal, then a receiver at the other end would need to convert it back to analog and re-amplify it again. You loose some of the quality there.

Wireless speakers are subject to interference also. You won’t see any high end speaker set ups using wireless. In the years to come they may improve it and the price may come down.

Your best bet is to try and hide your speaker wires. You can tuck them under baseboards, run them under the floor or buy plastic raceways to do it.

Looking for the cheapest home theater in a box with digital audio inputs and wireless rear/surround speakers. anybody got one in mind?

check out LG and Panasonic there wireless and cheap.

Looking to buy a Denon receiver with boston acoustic speakers.. say that have 4 satellite speakers,, I am confuse are they wireless??

No satillite speakers refers to the size (small speakers).

I recently installed a wireless home security systems (ADT), and now I am noticing a clicking emanating from my home theater system. I am wondering if it is caused by the new security, and if so, how can I fix it?

A bit of detail on the clicking: it is similar to, but not the same as, the phone interference caused by certain (GSM) phones.

This is one of the many reasons I stay away from Wireless Security Systems. The thing is, the industry is well aware of the problems wireless security systems cause. Unfortuntately the ease of installation and quick monitoring revenues tends to win out over providing a decent system.

I’m not going to profess to being an expert in home theatre, I don’t know where the interference is entering the system. If you have RF audio or video transmission I could see that as the culprit. As for changing the frequency, I don’t know if this can be done but if so, that might just fix your problem.

Another solution would be to block RF out of the media room, although costly, metal walls might do the trick.

Honestly, I would suggest you contact the company who sold you the system. If you are positive the alarm system is causing the problem, they can test it out by powering the ENTIRE system down. This includes the wireless door contacts, motion sensor and anything else that would be sending that pulse. If the problem goes away, tell them to make the system go away. Opt for a hardwired security system. Yes there is more work involved in the installation, but the quality is better.

AND ACTUALLY WORKS!
A home theater that would be best for a living room.

No where. $200 won’t get you much of anything unless it’s used & beat up.

No, wireless is NOT preferable…for two primary reasons.

First off, the nature of the way a wireless speaker operates doesn’t make them wireless for practical reasons. To use a speaker wireless, the speaker has to have an amp built in. To run that amp requires power. To provide that power, you need do one of two things…either keep pumping batteries into the speakers…or plug them into the wall. The vast majority of people don’t want to keep spending the money on batteries so they plug them in. If you plug them into the wall, you just ran wires. And if you can run a power plug, you can run speaker cables.

The second reason wireless is inferior has to do with quality. There simply are no high performance wireless loudspeakers. You will never find a single high performance theater spec’d with wireless products. There are always bandwidth limitations to a line of sight wireless product and this is the last thing you want.

There are very few spots that if you think and plan, you can’t get wiring to. It is worth the extra effort.

My guess it that it means that it is possible to set up a second system in another room that connects to the first one wirelessly.

If it means something else, than I have no idea.
