I would like to connect a speaker or pair of speakers in another room from my hifi, best way and best quality, excluding hard wiring.

Hi - there's a number of ways of doing this, but the remote speakers will need to either be powered speakers (i.e. with their own in-built amplification) or will need to be connected to a remote amplifier (which in some cases will be the same box as the signal receiver). Your existing amp won't drive the speakers directly - like it does for the speakers wired into your amp.
Basically the route would be: Amp -> Transmitter -> Receiver -> Amp -> Speakers
- If you have Active speakers remotely, then the "Amp -> Speakers" part is wrapped up in the active speakers
- and if they're bluetooth capable speakers, you just need a bluetooth transmitter.
Have you got the additional speakers, or are you looking to buy some?
Yes - I started typing a reply about Zone A & B - and then noticed the "excluding hard wiring" bit - easy mistake.I had a CXA a couple of years ago and think it has zone A and B which can, of course, be controlled separately. If memory is correct he can then just wire directly?
Edit - just noticed the requirement for no wires!!
