Why not more wireless connections?


Greetings

As far as I can tell, wireless is all around us but not so much in home audio systems. Why is that? Why not wireless connections between sources and amp and between amps and speakers? Why use wires at all? 

Thanks

I have no technical knowledge on wireless versus wired, just my own user experience.  My experience is that wireless can be much more convenient, when it is working.  At the gym, no wires is a must.  At home, a traditional CD player into a good DAC, seems to sound "better."  Maybe because there is no stress that it can't connect.  In contrast, almost daily Roon cannot find the core, taking 2-3 minutes of fiddling.  Connected, Roon is great.  In sum, whenever possible, I'm wired.
