I agree. The issue with any type of wireless is just not worth the hassle. Easiest way I found, put the system on an interior wall. Run the wires up to the attic and then down to the spots you need. Try to avoid using exterior walls as fishing through insulation is not really fun. It's a one time project, call a few buddies over for morale support and make it a good time.

You could get a small for factor speaker like Mirage, Anthony Gallo etc. These could go on very thin stands against the wall and would not be very noticeable. Since they are very small, you could use a small gauge speaker wire and run it along the baseboard.

I bought the Energy Take 5 system for my living room last winter and love it. GREAT sound for the money.

I wanted wireless, too, but after looking at the options decided to skip it because of what I read about quality, and the fact they'd have wires from somewhere, too, whether to an outlet or a module of some sort. I ended up running the wires behind my baseboards in my living room, although if you're going to put them in the corners of the room, the down-from-the-attic option might work better.

Lots of reviews on Amazon (but they're cheaper at Newegg).
