My BiL has asked me about this:

http://www.maplin.co.uk/module.aspx?moduleno=104993

It's to connect a laptop to a hifi (a sort of midi hifi with aux in).

Does such an arrangement compromise sound quality, compared to direct
wired connection?



Theoretically - no.

In practice - it will be hissy.

(Is my guess! ;-)

Know what you mean! I think it's not like that though - if there's hiss
it'll be from the line level amp which, as Don says, would be difficult
to mess up.

If this were one of those FM things that transmits to a radio, then
yes, hiss would be a number one concern. But at 2.4GHz, it is
certainly digital, which means that it will work perfectly without
hiss until it starts to get out of range - at which point it will
sound dreadful.
