    These guys have always been under priced overachievers. They're held in very high accolades by many leading sources. Check out the reviews section.

              Wireless stuff is shit tbh.. I know in B & O they only released a wireless transmitter and receiver a couple of months which is the best ive heard. I had a phillips wireless system for surround sound and it was pants, if u have a wireless lan connection in ur house forget about it.

                If you're on a budget, but want some absolutely stunning sound then look to Paradigm. Let your ears perform the ultimate test... but far out - bang for buck I didn't find anything close. I traded in my Bose for these instantly, and my neighbours have never had a good night's sleep since.

                  Yeah I'm not expecting audiophile quality, this is more for ambient elevator music

                    As far as surround sound goes, The latest ones they have out now are those 7.1 systems.

                          It's just so overrated and overhyped. Price-performance ratio is absolutely out of the question. Just google around a bit and you might know what i'm trying to say.

                            We have surround sound in the living room...i am too lazy to go look at what kind it is, but i know it sounds real good!

                            My point of replying however though was to let you know...I heard really bad things about wireless suround sound for your tv et etc. However, when we installed ours we just drilled a tiny hole in the floor behind the receiver/TV and then drilled tiny holes where were installing the various speakers...so there is only a tiny bit of wire showing through out the room. Thats always an idea
