THX throws its weight in behind Radiient for wireless audio

Very few folks enjoy the installation of multichannel wired speaker setups, let alone the appearance of cables snaking through the living room. Radiient's UWB-based Roomcaster technology for sending audio bits to and fro might just gain a foothold thanks to its new partner, THX. That THX name is a kind of benchmark for quality and definitely resonates with consumers, and with the ability to deliver 8-channels of 24-bit uncompressed audio should make for happy users. Now if only something can be done about the high price of entry, this might have a chance at catching on.

So how often will I have to recharge the batteries in each of my 8 speakers? I think sometimes people forget that it's not just the sound being delivered in those wires they're running to each of their channels...
