Audiovox Introduces the WHT6024 Wireless 5.1 Home Theater System

As wireless home theater systems become more popular, we're starting to see some brand name systems come out at a pretty reasonable price. One wireless system that sounds interesting is WHT6024 from Acoustic Research (an Audiovox brand). According to Twice.com:

Audiovox showed its digital wireless 5.1 home theater system and digital wireless transmitter receiver system under the Acoustic Research brand during a press preview, held here this afternoon.
In his presentation of the entire line and in a prepared statement Tom Malone, president of Audiovox Electronics, said, “For the home, Audiovox is ... introducing wireless products that cut the cord on home theater systems without sacrificing sound quality. These wireless systems create 5.1-channel surround sound and have unparalleled abilities to block interference for a superior listening experience.”

Overall, the system sounds pretty sweet:

The system features a patent pending 2.4 GHz digital wireless technology, Audiovox said, plus a two-way center channel and sonic matched satellites, and a 125 watt, 10-inch high-excursion subwoofer. The WHT6024 is said to feature full bandwidth, 20Hz to 20kHz high-quality audio.

The great part is that the WHT6024 comes in under $350. Expect to see it hit the market in a couple on months and we'll give you more details when we get them.
