Aperion’s Zona Wireless Surround Speaker System Doubles as Hi-Fi Computer Music System

Wires. You hate ‘em. I hate ‘em. We all hate ‘em. (Well, except for the people who make them.)

While the wireless subwoofer market is booming (*giggle*) at the moment, good wireless speakers are still few and far between. Aperion is rectifying that situation a bit with its Zona Wireless Surround System. The system relies on a compact wireless transmitter and two powered bookshelf speakers (okay, so you’ll still need power cables and a mains outlet nearby) to deliver uncompressed 48 kHz/16-bit CD-quality audio up to 150 feet away. The company promises simple, no-fuss setup, great fidelity, and a rock-solid connection.

What’s more, since the transmitter includes a USB port, the system handily doubles as a complete wireless music system for your computer. Snazzy.
