You will need a receiver to power these speakers. Just about any av receiver will work. Mine are powered by an old onkyo 605. There is not a remote with these. It's just the speakers.

The speakers aren't wireless, but they come with their own wires. If you have a large room, you may need to purchase extra wire.

They are not really wireless - there is one wireless (wireless only while connecting to the base unit) receiving unit that does have a wire that plugs into the wall. The wireless receiving unit is wired to the two rear speakers.

Brooks I have Samsung external speakers and they have made a huge difference in sound quality and picking up sounds like footsteps you don't hear with the TV speaker. The Bluetooth wireless works as good as the old wire speakers.

No problem. I was wondering the same things when I bought mine, but I got it at such a low price I risked it. It really is an awesome speaker system. Dont let the reviews about needing the remote scare you. If you loose the remote, you just control it from your phone.

In my opinion, there is no such thing. Wireless speakers just don't have the sound quality/clarity of wired speakers. Also, the term "wireless" is misleading. Most wireless systems simply mean that there are no wires from the receiver to the rear speakers. Most of the time, those rear speakers are still connected to a wireless receiver in the back of the room by, you guessed it, wires. The reason is that speakers need to be powered somehow. There are a few options that will give you true wireless speakers, but they require batteries, and the speakers drain the batteries fairly quickly. Unless you have no way of running wires, I suggest getting a wired system or a good quality soundbar.

No, you can not connect these speakers directly to your HDTV, unless your TV has speakers connectors, which I have not seen one thus far. The do not come with any wirings/cords. If you want a 5.1 Surround sound or bigger speakers than your TV, then you will need the following. RCA Wirings to connect the TV sound outputs into a Receiver, which you need to buy [if you do not have one]. Then buy good speaker wires/cords to connect the Receiver connect to these speakers. The samples in the Internet seemed to be missing the Receiver. They only show the TV and the speakers, which is misleading to some who is not familiar to sound system set ups.

This item is just speakers (also comes with wires). You will actually need a receiver to hook them up to in order to make them work. A DVD player will also be needed if you want to watch movies using these speakers. More importantly though (and mandatory) is the receiver (any brand will do). A home theater system would also work in place of a receiver, but most of those come with speakers.

Of course they do. They get the sound through computer's headphone jack. Which is standard and required for all wired computer speakers. Otherwise, you have to buy a wireless one.

As these are speakers only, and the are meant to be connected to a home theater amplifier, no, there is no remote control. Any remote control would belong to the amplifier, which is not included.

Sorry, they are wired. If you want wireless then you probably need a smart TV or a TV with bluetooth, and get some bluetooth speakers.

I had been hoping that the speakers were wireless myself. The sales "pitch" was that it was wireless. My understanding is it IS wireless insofar as streaming Netflix and others, follow? In other words, it connects to your wireless router so whatever you obtain through your computer for your watching pleasure can be channeled into it. Mine is HDMI'd to my flat screen - required. Therefore, wires are required to the TV and to the Speakers. It seems I'm stuck with speaker wires afterall. Maybe the future holds a home theater system with wireless speakers or expensive as hell at this time... I wish I could help you more but for the price? I'm satisfied!

Dear Joseph,Thanks for your inquiry. This speaker package needs to connect to a receiver for the speakers to receive sound. Of course, the receiver would then have a remote control. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

No, remote can control the speakers on TV itself. My wireless headphones' volumes stay unchanged. I can set it to a different volumes.

No, they are not wireless.......too bad....that would be awesome. The speakers sound great & it's super easy to set up.

No they're not wireless .. There are 5 different small speakers two you put in front of your TV left and right two in the back and one comes with long wire which should be placed behind your seating area .. Hope i helped answer your question

These are not wireless, they have to be driven with wires from an amp. And frankly, these are not very good speakers.
