I have a couple questions. Are there any wireless speaker systems that I should even consider? I have a fairly large living room and running wires all over the place in order to get good surround doesn't sound like a lot of fun. I'm willing to sacrifice a little in quality since I'm not an audiophile anyway, but a friend of mine has a wireless system and one of his speakers cuts out pretty often - if that's simply inherent to wireless speakers then I'll pass.

A friend of mine recommended these:

Any thoughts? The Amazon reviews seem pretty positive, but considering the "larger and heavier = better" rule of thumb, I wanted to ask here.

You can look up something like Rocketfish. It'll bring a considerable extra cost to your system, however. It's probably easier to just go with a 3.0 or 3.1 system.

How about these: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Home/Speakers/Home+Theater+Speakers/SP-FS51-LR

With this: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Home/Speakers/Home+Theater+Speakers/SP-C21

Using this: http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-VSX-820-K-Home-Theater-Receiver/dp/tech-data/B0039XQL2G/ref=de_a_smtd

Will this 3.0 system wow me? (This setup would be almost exclusively for movies and sports.

As it happens, people on start of page 2 have pictures of exactly that. They seem happy. As to whether it'll wow you, no one but you can say.

I suppose what I mean is, will those three speakers produce quality, cinematic sound? Also, will the woofers in the towers provide bass comparable to a decent dedicated subwoofer?

Thanks for all the assistance - great thread.
