Nah... unfortunately not yet.

Seriously considering though. (Frankly, still waiting for my wife's confirmation. )

Anyway, they look pretty good, huh?

Has anyone tried?

Kaine,

I'm a bit of a dullard when it comes to home cinema, so have a couple of questions you may be able to help with..............?

1. The Gefen item you originally posted looks like it sends HDMI wirelessly. Does this mean that I can have all my audio/visual equipment stored away from the TV, and then send the HDMI signal wirelessly to the TV? So in essence you could have your DVD Player, PS3 or Bluray player, SKY HD etc hidden (but with infared remote access) and transmit the picture to the TV? If this is the case do you have multiple inputs into the sender unit and a remote to change the source.

2. Also, I seem to be accumulating lots of wireless products and am concerned that they may all interfere with each other. We have a wireless router connected to 2 x PC's and a PS3, wireless CCTV, a baby monitor, garage door opener and most importantly a wireless doorbell!! Will they all clash at some point? The microwave seems to cause problems when the PS3 is in use!

Any advise would be appreciated. TDV8 HSE in Java/Ebony with Zebrano Wood, RSE, Hybrid TV, and a few other bells and whistles.

Thanks for the advice, just need to save a few pennies under the radar of SWMBO! Concerning that the Microwave oven is leaking microwaves....................... doesn't sound too healthy! Wasn't an expensive one so will probably ditch it and get something more reliable.

Bowers & Wilkins introduces Liberty wireless speaker system

Apparently, Bowers & Wilkins didn't want the whole world talking at once about its forthcoming Liberty at CES, but regardless, the self-proclaimed "wireless entertainment system" is all out in the open now. Slated to land this fall for a currently undisclosed price, the setup will consist of two XTW 8 towers, a pair of XTW 2 bookshelf units, an XTW Center channel and a PVW 1 subwoofer. Additionally, you'll find integrated class-D amplifiers and a rather sexy (albeit elusive) control unit, and if that wasn't enough, it's also the "first wireless system" capable of transmitting eight channels -- 5.1 for one room and two extra channels for remote zones. This system even utilizes "dynamic channel selection," which enables it to switch frequencies on the fly and choose the least trafficked frequency band to nix delay. Sadly, we've no price to share, but we wouldn't expect it to come cheap by any stretch of the imagination. [Warning: PDF read link]

I am a bit late to this post, but I agree with the suggestion that the wireless speaker options are generally not very reliable.

It was not entirely clear to me that the use you had in mind was purely for rear sound. If you are looking for a more robust wireless audio system, I have had the Sonos (www.sonos.com) system installed in my apartment for over two years and it is the best money ever spent. Without having to open up any walls, I have a 6 zone whole house audio system, with full wireless access to 13,000 songs on a network drive. I do have my televisions connected to the system, but not for producing surround sound but rather to push the television audio through multiple zones for things like Super Bowl parties or when the television sound is to wimpy.

If you were feeling rich, or have some fancy surround set up that separately amps each channel, you probably could use multiple Sonos systems to wirelessly power the front and back. Mind you, the Sonos wirelessly transmits the source signal between boxes, which amplify the signal to the speakers, so there are speaker wires coming out of the Sonos boxes (which are about the size of a fat hardcover novel).

Glad you like the SONOS system - we're authorised dealers/installers for this system and you're right about it being a great solution for retro fitting a house with mutliroom audio. SONOS still has its limitations of course, as you have probably found which is a shame - isolation of controllers to zoneplayers would be the best upgrade that SONOS could introduce (but no plans as yet). We have a client with SONOS throughout his house and two young boys that find it funny to turn on Rock Music at full volume to get him up on a Saturday morning
The controller however is the best part of the SONOS system - very slick!!!

In case of your idea, I'd expect some lipsync problems if you use a SONOS system in a 5.1 wireless system
