My wife and I are utter and complete newbies when it comes to home theater equipment. We would like to hook a decent blu-ray player + amplifier + speaker system + subwoofer to our living room television.
This is a blank slate install - all we have is the TV.
The only difficulty we're facing is any rear (side of room opposite television) speakers- those would need to be small (20 cm / 10 inches or less in height), and wireless. We can wire them for power, but I have no way to run speaker wire to them - they will be mounted to the ceiling.
We have a wireless network - no idea if that's relevant.
We have these components attached to the TV:
Samsung 46" LCD television.
Xbox 360
HD cable box / recorder (unit from the cable company)
