Paul or other Polk employees, any tidbits for us from CEDIA? New product developments, etc.? The only thing I found was about the IP-addressable LCi's.

    While most MP3s sound like crap, if ripped properly and encoded well, they can sound quite good.

    Do I need to send you a disc Paul? ;)

    Will we be able to adapt those IP speakers to a wireless network?

    In wireless's current state, I think it's bandwidth limited. Sure, you can do it now, but only up to about 48khz/16bit, 96kHz/24bit would require more bandwidth.

    What you can do to ensure total wireless bandwith is dedicate a 54g wireless router to each speaker. You can achieve this by filtering MAC addresses to make sure that each speaker gets the full bandwith from a dedicated 54g wireless router. Expensive but dooable. But hey if you can dish out 2.5-4k for the speakers why not round home for the score. :)
