Default Stereo Speakers??

I have a Sirius radio hooked up to my home stereo in the livingroom and I would like to have a small speaker in my fish room playing the same music so I can hear it over all the running water. Even at 140 decibels in the house I can't hear anything but the bass in the fish room with the door closed. Is there a way to have a remotely placed speaker in the fish room without running wires around the house? I would like the speaker to plug into the wall for power though. The last thing I need is to be replacing batteries in it (like the Bluetooth speakers). A great option would be the ability to switch the speaker off easily without turning off the system in the livingroom.

Any ideas?

There's a lot of wireless satellite speaker options.... like anything else you get what you pay for.

I'm thinking around the $50-100 mark. I just need some noise in there besides water falling.

check on ebay... I'm sure you can find some Chinese made ones that are pretty reasonably priced

I would just get a decent iPod dock and If you've got wifi, use an Internet radio app. Thousands of channels, instead of a hundred with Sirius.

We use KRK powered speakers. For the money, they cannot be beat.

I don't have an iPod anymore, but I do have an Android phone. I just really like the channel on Sirius though...
