Acoustic Research at CES 2009

Three products from Acoustic Research (a brand of Audiovox) caught our eye at CES 2009. In addition to a pair of XSight universal remotes, the company also previewed the ARW5.1 Wireless Conversion System, which converts any standard surround speaker system to "wireless" operation--albeit with some caveats.

The ARW51/ARW20 system is expandable--just add an ARWR2 ($100, built-in 60-watt amp) for each additional channel you want to mirror.
