Not sure why font numbers listed?!

You could place single mono amps adjacent to each speaker and feed them through coax from a pre-amp- or even use Ethernet converters but you
might not be able to get the same quality or bandwidth from the latter.

Thanks - trailing the preamp wires is much the same as speaker cables I'd have thought?!

Just to partially answer the question of 'why', which has cropped up
elsewhere:

'Just to say she's neurodivergent and I've found it's best just to answer the questions asked. I think she wants to stick
with the interface and aesthetics of her existing system, but has become confounded by the tangle of loudspeaker wires.

Once I've exhausted the possibility of wireless connectivity, I'll start to introduce flat and concealed speaker cables.'

So for now I'd just like to figure out whether making the existing speaker system wireless is an option worth considering. I don't think it is . . .
hence the question.
