Basically, go to any store anywhere and, even though the store would make the most money from selling the most expensive product (at least I think they would), salesmen very recently (two weeks ago) were disparaging the systems.

They only make money if it stays in your house. The 2 worst ideas in the last 10 years have been wireless headphones and wireless speakers. It's easy to disparage something that is so so susceptible to any kind of RF in your house at all. Especially when you spend 20 minutes trying to explain how they work, only to have them come back 2 days later because they buzz when your refrigerator comes on, or the cut out when you turn your head, or they buzz when your cell phone is on, or they buzz when your computer's on, or they buzz when your dog walks in the room. There are very few environments where these things work at all. And even when they do, they sound like crap for the price because they're transmitting on a radio frequency.
