Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
You guys think?
LOL the player is still woefully underspec'd
No ethernet no USB and plenty of poor movie discs out. Sorry even with a discount the Sammy player isn't worth it IMO. The $499 player still has more features if you want to compare the XA1 then you have have to match the sammy with more dedicated audio DSP and RS232 ports. Let's compare Apples to Apples here. The Sammy player is akin to the HD-A1 and not the HD-XA1
