Un-tethered wireless audio system
First Claim
1. A wireless audio system configured to receive audio information wirelessly transmitted by an audio source, comprising:
- a first wireless transceiver, that is configured to establish a bidirectional secondary wireless link with the audio source and to extract a first audio channel from audio information transmitted by the audio source via the secondary wireless link;
a second wireless transceiver, wherein said first and second wireless transceivers are configured to communicate with each other via a primary wireless link; and
wherein said first wireless transceiver is configured to communicate at least one communication parameter to said second wireless transceiver via said primary wireless link, wherein the communication parameter is to enable said second wireless transceiver to observe the secondary wireless link and extract a second audio channel from the audio information transmitted by said audio source via said secondary wireless link.

Abstract
A wireless speaker audio system configured to receive audio information wirelessly transmitted by an audio source including first and second wireless transceivers. The first wireless transceiver establishes a bidirectional secondary wireless link with the audio source for receiving and acknowledging receipt of the audio information. The first and second wireless transceivers communicate with each other via a primary wireless link. A wireless audio system including an audio source and first and second wireless transceivers. The first and second wireless transceivers communicate via a primary wireless link. The audio source communicates audio information to the first wireless transceiver via a secondary wireless link which is configured according to a standard wireless protocol. The first wireless transceiver is configured to acknowledge successful reception of audio information via the secondary wireless link.
