Hmm. If it could be done easily and cheaply at decent quality, why are
good quality radio mics so expensive?

I said it could be included in an already self-powered speaker, itself
of not inconsequiential cost. If one has already invested the power
supply and amplifier, it was estimated that the receiver could be
added on for about $100. That was about 3 years ago.

OTOH, one might demand even higher quality in a mike feed than for a
surround channel speaker. I would.
