I find a wireless speaker, but I do not know where to start looking. I want a simple system that can connect to my ipod. Hold excellent sound quality. A big key is scalability (single issuer that is allowing additional speakers to add at another time, or perhaps I can connect to my DVD player). I also want the speakers to be indoor / outdoor, although I do not know if that makes any difference. Our new house has a large deck and I would have to pump air down there.
Any advice?
Check these out. I recommend using speaker wire at least 1. You have no other choice. or 2. You want speakers that can be moved, as a party. Also, speakers wireless still need power. Any-Who's That my two cents. Hope this helps.

wireless speakers?
Apr 16, 2007 by Jon | Posted in Home Theater
I am looking to purchase a set of wireless speakers. They will be goin in a new steakhouse that my family is opening, and i am wondering what brands are trustworthy. These speakers need to be able to go about 50 ft if not more.
thx for the help....
See the link for a listing of wireless surround speaker models. I suggest you look through the list for three things ... ones from brand name firms (JBL, Klipsch, Acoustic Research, Sony, etc), from that sub-list consider shape/size and price. Finally, look at specs for the speakers on the short list and make sure the ones you are interested in can satisfy your range requirements (and remember you must be able to place the receiver in line-of-sight from the transmitter to obtain this range). As an example, the second link is to the details page on the "JBL on air control 2.4Ghz" ... and specifies up to 70' range.
Several considerations:
- Wireless speakers may degrade sound slightly vs similar wired models ... but this is not going to be an issue in a restaurant setting.
- Power (and therefore loudness) may be a bit low by home standards, although again unless you plan to really blast out music this should not be an issue.
- You will need a power outlet near the speakers since they will have to be plugged in.
Finally, there are outdoor wireless speakers available should this be a requirement (e.g. for a patio. Do another search on the linked site).

Product: Soundmatters foxL v2.2 Bluetooth Speaker
Price: $199
What It’s Good For: Taking high fidelity along with you in a palm-sized package.
Who It’s Good For: Frequent travelers who own Bluetooth devices and like to listen to music; well-heeled audiophiles who appreciate great sound in a small form factor.
Limitations: No auto-off function, pricey.
Bottom Line: Hold this hotshot in your hand and feel its incredible power. Such sound has never shoehorned itself into such tiny speakers and been worthy of such praise. Even though you get a lot of original technology for your money, it’s pretty expensive at $199.
