anything in the sonos range do what you want?

I don’t think it will. All I’m trying to do is find a solution which will allow me to have the speakers I already own elsewhere in the room, without cables running between the amp and the speakers.
Not sure I am understanding you – you want to make your speakers wireless? How would you drive them if that is the case, they need to be powered.
I hadn’t thought about this aspect but I had assumed that these adapters (if they existed) would need to be plugged into a power source, or battery powered.
I probably should have mentioned that part of the reason the stereo lives where it does at the moment is because it’s connected to our TV. Also, I wasn’t quite sure how to explain my imagined solution but hopefully the paragraph below clears up what I’d hoped for!
If it’s a decent system, and you like it, I’d guess that anything bluetooth is going to be more of a pain, less satisfactory and much more expensive than tidying up the cable runs.
The difficulty I have is that I need to run one of the cables in front of a fireplace…
There’s adapters for connecting normal speakers to a Bluetooth source but I guess your Hi-Fi doesn’t put out a Bluetooth feed?
The solution I had imagined involved a bluetooth transmitted which would plug into the speaker connections on the back of the amp (one for left and one for right) with corresponding units plugging into the speakers. It would’ve made my life a lot easier!
Sounds like the only option is to move the stereo somewhere else and replace with a soundbar?
Thanks for the suggestions by the way!
