December 2007 From Product Reviews
One of the biggest impediments to people hooking up surround sound systems in their living room is the problem of running wires to the rear speakers. I’ve heard that countless times from people. They can’t run the wires under the floors, don’t want to hide them under rugs or just don’t want to be bothered figuring out a solution. With so many things in home wireless now—why not speakers? There have been wireless speakers around for several years of course, though most end up performing poorly due to weak wireless signals or interference with all the other wireless signals floating around the air.

Acoustic Research Décor Speakers
December 2006 From Product Reviews
The HD510 Home Décor speaker system is a conventional-looking subwoofer/satellite system consisting of five small, matched satellite speakers and one subwoofer. Taken by themselves, the system is a well-built, above average set of moderately-priced speakers ($899); however, the real hook is not actually in the speakers, but what you match them with. I’m not talking about your amplifier or TV, I’m talking about your home accents. You see, the Home Décor line tries to solve that old problem of putting speakers out of sight, but not out of sound (sic). The Home Décor line was designed to fit perfectly with a selection of

Not long ago, you'd hear a song on the FM dial, wait for the album to hit stores and then throw it in the CD changer when you got it home. Today we listen to satellite radio, download individual songs over the Internet and the only reason we touch our CDs is to rip them for playback on our iPods. Like I said, things are changing. Die-hard audiophiles will tell you the sky is falling and compressed music is the embodiment of pure Evil. I take my music a little
