Does anyone know if there are any hi-fi systems that actually recieve a wi-fi signal so as to play Airtunes?

I'm fed up with having a long cable running from my Airport to my hi-fi.

I think I'm confused by the question. AirPort Express with AirTunes is wireless and requires a plug. The HiFi requires a plug. Can't you just plug them in next to each other and have a really short audio cable?

I had many problems with my PowerBook not connecting to my Airport - it would simply say "There was an error joining the network 'xxxxxx' " Nothing would sort it. So I moved my Airport to the other side of the room and ran the cables and, sure enough, no more problems.

I think my amp was effecting the wi-fi.

Secondly, to have them near each other means having the TV and hi-fi next to each other (cable gives me internet and TV) - not very attractive in the lounge!!
