Active Elacs with Kleer wireless option. First public demo will be at the Bristol show.
IMO there's no point in investing in Kleer powered systems now that Wisa has emerged. the main benefit of Wisa standard over Kleer is that it can handle up to 8 channels in 24/96. I'm hoping 2014 will see arrival of a few Wisa pwered systems to the market. wireless HT set-up anyone? so far we've only got B&O Beo 17,18,19.
Not heard of it before, but having read about it now, think it is very interesting!
I think this standard may revolutionize what hi-fi and HT is at the moment. this might be the end of stacks of separates systems and passive speakers, provided people would prefer having their hi-fi reduced to a wireless transmiter (possibly with a DLNA renderer already on board or other digital inputs) and a few wireless active speakers.
for instance Sharp is soon to release its universal player/ streamer with WISA transmitter already on board. http://wisaassociation.tumblr.com/ all you need to add then is a set of WISA enabled speakers to have a true hi quality home theater. no HT processors, no metres of speaker cable lying around. B&O goes even a step further by implementing the transmiter and disc player into their TVs.
in all fairness Kleer could have been just that to 2 channel stereo if it was released some 15 years ago when few people even thought about hi-rez music.
