I'm looking for a pair of products that will plug into a wall outlet for
power and receive a wireless audio signal synchronized in two different
places.
I can't run speaker wire to the locations, so i figure wireless should be
available somewhere.

1 wifi/digital 5.2 ghz transmitter with audio input
2 wireless receivers with ac in, reasonable 60 watts or so audio output -
synchronized.
Size isn't really an issue...

Where can I get a product like this?
I'll continue to google on it.

Thanks

I suggest an FM transmitter.
You might try Best Buy (www.bestbuy.com) for a solution. Search for "audio
transmitter" or "fm transmitter". Transmitting your audio over the FM band
will allow you to use any decent FM receiver to receive the broadcast and
run to as many speakers as you want. The transmitter will accept any audio
source, including your computer's sound card, CD player, DVD player, TV,
etc.
Best buy is only a suggestion... lots of other consumer electronics outlets
should have the same types of equipment. Try Rex, Sound Advice, etc.

I didn't really think of this..

My first concern here would be stability of the transmitter. My experience
with the miniature ones for car use is that while they warm up, they need
adjustment...

Thanks for the reply

some transmitters use crystals to keep the frequency stable.

I know I'm top posting, but I found a product at radioshack.
2.4GHz Audio/Video Signal Sender/Receiver
catalog number 15-2572

$99.

I can't recommend it cause I didn't try it yet.

It doesn't have an amplifier for speaker, but it'll get the signal run
without wires. Just add juice and an amp. You can even get a second etc
receiver. $60.

That may not be WiFi; it may just be the equivalent of the X10
"anywhere" audio/video transmitter/reciever pair. I've used those as a
virtual cable once or twice; see past discussion for the fact that the
video channel can be (ab)used to make a surprisingly decent
digital-audio connection.
