Wireless Home Theater vs Wired - Whats Your Choice?
Is there a big advantage in choosing a wireless home theater set up over wired? It's a question which is being asked more and more today as technology makes rapid inroads into the area of home theater.
Bear in mind the wireless solution is still relatively new and a long way from being perfected so making comparisons between the two could present a lop-sided argument.
Wireless vs. Wired
Wireless home theater is the ideal scenario, let's not kid ourselves. It's especially ideal for established set ups because of it's convenience. We are moving into a world of hands free technology and because home theater is such a personal thing, it's an area of the home where many people spend a large part of their time.
So what are the pros and cons of wireless speaker systems opposed to the wired versions. Here's are look at the benefits and drawbacks of both:
Wireless Speaker Systems
The advantage is clear. Lack of wiring to worry about. Easy set up and able to adapt to both an established and home theater set up in waiting. The set up aspect is a huge benefit with many systems basically launched right out of the package.
The disadvantage is the lack of sound quality. While this is changing rapidly, there is still enough complaints being made in reviews both on and offline to suggest sound quality is still a problem. THe most common complaint seems to be humming and hissing sounds plus lack of sound level.
Wired Speaker Systems
The most obvious disadvantage is wire clutter. Unsightly cabling presents not just a problem of untidiness but also is a drawback in the area of locating technical problems. Set up could also be thrown in as a disadvantage but only for the totally non-technical.
The advantage of course is superior performance. That's understandable given they've had a huge headstart over their wireless cousins in terms of development. But home theater enthusiasts can be a picky bunch and wireless home theater may be put on the back burner for a little while yet.
