I don't think bluetooth is very reliable at ranges beyond a few feet, so if it did use this I would avoid it anyway.

I thought it was more for streaming audio to the receiver.

I`ve got some plastic trunking for my wires which I got from homebase - it`s sticky on one side so you stick it around the room just under the ceiling, open the front to put the wires in and close again - looks great and was pretty cheap too, think it was about £30 for the whole room which is a front room/kitchen so pretty large.

If I was going to do it again when I move I`d use the same approach as you barely notice the trunking as it`s white and next to a white ceiling in my case.

Oh and I`m not sure what the wireless ones are like now but when I was looking at them a couple of years ago everywhere I looked for ones within my price range strongly advised against them. Not sure if they`re any better now.

Satellite speakers... for a small room will they be good enough?  I always wonder if those little cubes are `big` enough to act as front speakers but I`m guessing they are or they wouldn`t sell!

What brands should you be looking at as I`m so far off the pulse nowadays I just don`t know what is good/bad!

I`ve seen some Tannoy SFX5.1 ones which don`t look nice but you can get some matching stands for the rears which is a must for me as they won`t be going on the wall.

I`ve also noticed some Onkyo entry speakers for £180 but don`t think they come with stands...

Cheers
