If you have an *integrated* amplifier (pre amp with volume control and
power amp together) than it would require specialist kit to connect any
wireless device to the speaker terminals on the integrated because of the
high currents involved! AND you would STILL need a power amp with a wifi
reciever **near** the speakers to **drive** them This will result in two
power amp stages with loss of quality as well and the analog to digital
and back conversion

If you have a seperate pre and power why not move the power amp near the
speakers and use long interconnects which tend to be less stiff and
massive between the pre and power.
either way you are talking about having the amp which drivers the speakers
inside the speakers or close to them with the wires...

do tell me more and I will help if I can.
