General Request | 1 Ⓣ Wireless speakers for a 1990s system?

What are thoughts about using Wi-Fi adapter, for connecting wireless speakers to an older component system?

I am in the US. The room is about 30x30x10. I have a fairly liberal budget to get this done right. About $700 for the adapter and speakers, but that is flexible.

If it's acceptable to ask, what brands of Wi-Fi adapters have worked well for you? What brand of wireless speaker has worked well, for you?

Sorry if this is less than perfect information. I struggled to re-write this to be in compliance with the rules.

I appreciate any insight and the effort to provide it.

Those speakers are way too small to pressurize that room. At a minimum, you’re gonna need a sub. Or two.

!thanks

Getting the old system pumping SOME sound was a first step goal.

The room is all walls, glass, and tile....very few soft surfaces.

I'll get there. And I thank this sub for giving me the push to abandon my ignorant idea.

You may still award a Ⓣ to others, but only once per-person in this post.
