Wireless Speakers?
 

Hi.
New around these parts, but I wanted to ask if anyone here knows anything
about wireless speakers. I want something to use in conjunction with my PC,
not as surrounds for a tv system. Most seem to be set up for this
(surround). There don't seem to be that many options in terms of battery
powered wireless speakers. Ross seem to make a pair that are relatively
high profile on sellers like ebay. Does anyone have, or know anything
about these wierless speakers by Ross? Any other advice welcome. Thanks.

Don't bother. Buy a decent setup with wired speakers. I have Creative FPS
2000- sounds a bit tinny and the "mid"woofer is a bit crap, but it does the
job for PC gaming. I would buy a better setup if you're planning on
high-quality music playback.

We have a couple of sets of small no-name wireless speakers that use a
frequency somewhere around 800 mhz, plugged into the hifi amplifier (which
in turn is connected inter alia to a digital satellite receiver tuned for
BBC radio via an Astra satellite).

They are excellent for listening to speech on the radio but hopeless for
reproducing music, which is horribly distorted - perhaps some kind of
bandwidth problem.

Forget it. They're toys, and terrible quality.
