Wireless sound transmission to HT rears?


Have any of you found a sonically acceptable means to transmit sound to rear channels of a home theatre? This could make a big difference to my flexibility in positioning an HT. Might to a LOT of us!
thanks,

You know, I use the Audioengine wireless iPod transmitter for playing iPod on my stereo, and I find it shockingly good. Never thought of using their non-iPod wireless transmitter for this purpose. Will check it out. (Skepticaly of course :)

On my first test of the devices I got noise and anomolies but I only had the sender and receiver a yard apart. When I separated them I got better results but still the wireless piece seemed to bleach the sound a bit. I'm hoping that if the bleaching is the only penalty, it will be ok for rears. Will try it over weekend.

Sounds like you are having better success in your second system than your first, yes?
Postscript: I am using wireless Audioengine AW1 now for rears with M-Audio v40 powered speakers. I am satisfied with this for rears. Need to crank up the volume for some reason. Still plan to experiment with sub.
