Wireless speakers for a second room?

i have a two channel (proacs, prima luna power amp and a naim pre\dac). the preamp has a headphone jack and i am wondering if there is a way to set up a speakers in a second room (too inconvenient to wire) by either running some sort of device out of the hadphone jack output, either to a powered speaker or to a non powered (usign the current pre to control volume).  i have seen wireless bluetooth, which i dont think will work, but dont know what other technologies might work. i have two rooms i am thinking of - the dining room which would not need high end speakers ( i have a pair of nht super zeros that would be fine)  but also considering for my home office, where some decent speakers would be nice.

can someone teach me about this, and let me know if i have a viable option?

Not really what I meant.  I would like to put a CD on in my high end room and, by attaching some device to the headphone out, or similar, be able to have music in a second room without having to run wires through my walls, buy an apple TV or hook up a PC.

thanks for all the ideas! i have been looking at the links and googling, and most look feasable.  now it is just time to pick a price point and dive in.  i will probably start with a low price point item for background listening, then, depending on how much we really use it in the second room, upgrade to somthing more expensive in the future

btw- imhififan, my dac/pre is a naim v1, which has a headphone out, so i can use that without running the tube amp. i can set the headphone out as either fixed volume or variable volume. nice feature.
