wireless surround rear speakers?

[bigjohn]

Anyone have any experience, recommendations?  I know wired > wireless but It looks like wireless is my best option due to layout of the room and other factors (wife).

I have set up the house with Sonos and it is great. Meaning room to room speakers for music.

 

I set up the man cave with some other wireless surround sound system and it is kind of poor. Sonos has a new surround set up I think and I might get it,

be very careful what wireless speakers you get as most have audio delay, which is fuging annoying.

I have had a Samsung "Home Theater In A Box" for several years. The rear surrounds aren't technically wireless themselves, they run to a receiver module that is wireless, so you don't have to run wires from the front of the room to the back. It sounds fine to me, I haven't noticed any delays and I tend to fixate on that type of stuff to a fault.

 

 

This is the one. http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-HT-Z512T-5-1-Channel-Theater-Surround/dp/B0015AD934/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1393060724&sr=1-3&keywords=samsung+ht-tz512

 

It was like $400 when I bought it and has lasted since 2008. Might not be able to find that exact model now,  but the semi-wireless setup is a pretty good concept to consider if you want.

Cool, thanks. I don't mind spending some money for quality, even if I have to wait a while. Actually it'll be a while before I pull the trigger anyway. I already have the receiver and sub and will by the front speakers first, then go with the rears.  Gonna try to find a place in Charlotte where I can go listen to some different setups.
