Title says it all. I have an amazing set of 5.1 speakers that I am trying to utilize. The front 4 (l,r, center and sub) are wired while the rear LR Im trying to do wireless. Has anyone found a decent receiver and transmitter that works and isn't too crazy expensive?

Would appreciate it as I'm lost!

Speakers are not self powered. They use a receiver and the wires to power them. That's why I'm looking for a wireless solution that can do both

You would have to have an amp for each speaker and a wireless receiver for each speaker. Even with that, delivering the correct channel to each speaker would be difficult. I'm not aware of a receiver that does that wirelessly. I can't think of a way to do this that wouldn't end up without at least three wireless receiver/amps with no buffering on the speaker side so that all speakers were playing the same notes at the same time.
