Bryston Wireless Speakers - WiSA?
« on: 22 Jan 2015, 09:25 pm »
Hi James,

What are your thoughts on Wireless Speakers and the WiSA standard?  In particular are you planning to make any?  A wireless active speaker seems to me something that would suit Bryston.

Thanks

Ron

I would expect a wireless active speaker to receive an analog signal not digital.  What are you thinking in regard to this?

Low-power wireless analog audio signal transmission is very inefficient and is plagued with reception, noise and fidelity problems.

Consumer headphones and speakers I have listened to using this technology have all had unacceptable audio performance.

Take a look at http://www.wisaassociation.org/ and in particular http://www.wisaassociation.org/Compliance/Overview.aspx

The B&O Beolab 18 speaker use the WiSA Standard and they work well.
