The transmitter isn't a source ... rather there are some that connect to the surround speaker posts (as wired speakers would be connected) and others must be connected to the surround preouts.

Hey guys.
Im looking into wiring my cousin's surround sound up but he doesn't want wires running round the room. Now i know the front 2 and the centre has to be wired to the amp and the rear speakers are connected to a transmitter which comes out the amp. Des the amp have to have a special socket in the back of it for the transmitter to plug into? Or does it just go into a normal aux audio socket.
Help will be much appreciated.
Thanks.

OK cool. Thanks for getting back to us. SO all i gotta do is try and find a transmitter that can connect to an amp via speaker sockets or pre-outs. Ill start looking. Anyone suggest anywhere that do transmitters and wireless speakers at reasonable prices?

firstly there is no such thing as wireless speakers. instead of simple 2 wire speaker cable. you end up having to run a dirty thick power cable or power source to them instead ! which will mean putting in power points near each speaker.
its a complete and utter fallacy anything such as a wireless speaker.
in my opinion stick to the conventional. its actually a lot simpler. discrete than any "wireless speakers"

I am sure there's a downside![]()
