are the rear speakers wireless?

The back two speakers have wires that go to a wireless reciever that connects to the main reciever wirelessly.

Yes they are wireless. However there is a small receiver unit that they run into that wirelessly connects to the main unit.

They are wired to a transmitter, which is wireless. In other words, you don't need wires from the rear speakers directly to the DVD player, across the room. You wire them to this transmitter, which you'd locate on the same side of the room as the rear speakers. The sound goes wirelessly from the DVD player to the transmitter, which then sends the sound to each rear speaker, by wire.

Thanks for your question. The rears are wireless. This is a fantastic sounding System. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Sony dealer.

No... The rear speakers still need to receive power somehow so the system uses a receiver in the back of the room that plugs in and the speakers are wired into that receiver therefore you don't have wires that run from the back of the room to the front of the room where your stereo system would most likely be. The receiver in the back of the room wirelessly to the main stereo unit to receive sound.

No, not wireless. You would need some sort of adapter to do this, but it would probably negatively impact the sound quality.

No it is not all the speakers are wired, but you can wireless connect to devices through blue tooth

No, they are not wireless, but they give you plenty of cable. It takes longer to assembe the stands (if you get them) then it does to put the rest of the system together. The speakers sound good, and the woofer has plenty of bass, especially if you crank up the rheostat in the rear of the woofer.

I my setup they are wired - not sure if they have the accommodations for a wireless setup. Excellent speakers for an "all wall-mounted look" and the sound is close to my floorstanding KEFs in my other other entertainment area.

No, you might incur problems communicating with the "wireless" rear speakers. But you might find you like the entire system as much or more than your current setup.

No it is not wireless and the wires they provided are pretty short, so actually your surround sound rear speakers are pretty close to the front speakers at its maximum extension. Further my base speakers went out about a year after I purchased the unit and I really did not use it that often enough to justify the money paid for it. I contacted the manufacturers for replacement of the base speaker as everything connects to the base speaker and their reply is for me to pay for a whole complete set and use the satellite speakers for replacement. So they are just junk lying around in my study and I do not propose to buy from this company again.

They are wired. Audioengine has a "wireless" solution sold separately that plugs into both a speakers & audio source if you desire something more freeroaming; however this is accomplished by plugging a bulky adapter to both source & speakers.

The home base unit of course is wired but there is a wirelesss card that you plug into the back of the main unit that reads to another box across the room. This other box is what you plug the rear speakers into. There are no wires running from the home base unit to the wireless box across the room. It's a pretty neat concept really.

Note: the speakers are NOT wireless. As far as the watts per speaker, they don't say on the back. Check the specs.

The speakers are not wireless. Each speaker comes with about 20 ft of cable if I remember correctly. The cables are thin, so they are easy to hide under a carpet.

Mine isn't. If your purchase says in black and white that the rear speakers are wireless, then they should. If not send it back but make sure they pay for shipping....ernie

There is speaker wire included which is used to connect the 2 speakers so not completely wireless.

No, they can't. Honestly though... I don't see any advantage because wireless rear speakers still need to be plugged into an outlet. These sound fantastic!

Yes, they are not wireless but they are loud & really decent for the price. Im very happy with mine which I have connected to a Dell PC.

No, they are not wireless.......too bad....that would be awesome. The speakers sound great & it's super easy to set up.

It's wireless to the rear module, then wired to the rear speakers.This still helps cut down on cross-the-room wiring for me.
