You can connect this device to any speaker, powered recommend. The ideal set up for a 5.1 speakers is to connect to the receiver input which will then distribute to your speakers. hope this helps. I have been using this for a while and love it. Unfortunate they are difficult to find these days.

Angel, This is strcictly a 2 channel wireless device. A great example is desktop pandora sent to a stereo receiver It works very well for this application. I am not knowledgeable regarding any 5.1 wireless devices. Good luck

No. No wireless speakers. This is a compact 5.1 HD speaker system. You need speaker wire to connect them to a stereo receiver.

The speakers are not wireless. Left & right channel (from the amp/receiver) are both connected to the Acoustimass bass module and each cube speaker is also connected to the Acoustimass bass module.

I have these speakers and no, they are not wireless. I have no idea why it says that as that would be very misleading. Hardwired only.

These Amplifiers are for floor speakers only. You can hook up 4 speakers if you want but it was not designed for 5.1 surround. Its a Kickin' amplifier. Lot of power....Hope this helps.

I guess that would depend on the type of sending device you have for the wireless speakers. The unit has one USB port and two sets of "old fashioned " black / red speaker ports for bare speaker wire. I hope that helps...

Have done all this, but how do I get 5.1 sound from the external source? Sound only coming through the front speakers. What input should I be using on the receiver to get 5.1 sound from the external source? TIA.

the question is a bit vague. i'm guessing you're looking for an AirPlay alternative. this device would not fall into that category. it's designed to convert an analog source (such as a regular analog stereo system playing audio through a headphone jack) to a wifi signal and send it wirelessly to the receiver, which in turn outputs the received audio through another headphone jack. this allows you to have multiple sets of speakers connected to multiple receivers in different rooms in your house playing synchronous music from one source. you can't connect to these things wirelessly. the only wireless connection is between the W3 sender and the W3 receiver.

Will not work with wireless speakers. You can connect a turntable and DVD player.

The speakers aren't exactly wireless. They're wired to an amplifier. Those are the two small speakers (surround). They are not however wired directly to the receiver. The two tall speakers (front speakers) are the ones that come with stands. Easy to hookup and wire to the receiver. I've had mine since late November and absolutely love it.

Yes although you will only get 5.1 instead of the possible 7.1 on ur receiver (2 ports would be unused unless u buy 2 extra speakers)

No, the surround speakers are not wireless. They are however the same size as the main left and right, so the quality is the same all around the system. I'm really impressed with this system

You can't run speaker wires but it has a 3.5 mm input on the transmitter. It's the size you use for headphones. If your receiver has a headphone out jack you can plug that into transmitter and then wirelessly transmit sound to speakers. The transmitter has to be plugged into a power outlet as does each speaker.

No...On my case, the both wifi and wired connections failed at the same time, no way you can make the speakers to sound again. If you really want a real nice sound at audiophile level, you should check out the KEF X300A Digital Hi-Fi Speaker System.It's the true audiophile speakers for the computers and MP3 player. Google the reviews on the speakers on you own.

No, it only works with wired speakers. It has no wireless/bluetooth output.

No they are not wireless. You would have to purchase a wireless transmitter and still connect the speakers to the transmitter. I have seen a transmitter at Radio Shack a couple of years ago. One piece hooks into your audio source and a second piece hooks up to your speakers thru speaker wire or rca audio cables. I didn't bother with it as it wasn't going to give me the flexibility I wanted in speaker placement.

Ben, usually you cannot connect such speaker systems directly as the TVs do not have a 5.1 connectivity option. You may need a 5.1 receiver. Afaik all TVs only have digital or optical outlets that you may need to connect to your receiver.Hope that helps.
