I'm looking at getting some wireless speakers for some work I do in and out of CAP and was wondering if anyone had any experiecne with the following two products?  On Amazon they both seem to have mixed reviews.

I'm not looking for uber expensive cause they won't be used all the time I'd just like something that's decent.  I'd be using them for presentations and movies.  They'd typicially be hooked up to my laptop.

Oh, I thought you were looking for someone who spoke wireless.  (I speak four languages, but wireless isn't one of them.  Never could get those dah-dit-dits right.)

Binary? That is easy. I am happy to teach you, sir.

It really is simple, once you get the basic concept.

"Wireless" used to mean radio and Marconi Telegraphy?  What year is this...1928?

Both sets of speakers are well over $100+.   Yet, your stated is plan is still have them connected to a laptop for presentations/movies in the same location - so, why go wireless?   Just get a good set of external computer speakers:

Plenty of good alternatives for well under $100:

I recently got a single omni-directional wireless outdoor speaker for use in my back yard. I works very nicely and was only $50 with free shipping.

I never said that I'd be in the same location.  I'm usually on the move when I give my classes and presentations.  Hence the wireless.
