The problem with any "active speaker" is that you sound is now only as
good as the speaker's amplifier.  It doesn't matter how good your
receiver or any other component in your system is ... sound degradation
can/will occur when the signal is modulated to RF (or IR in some cases),
and then re-converted to an audio signal in whatever electronics the
speakers have.

Do they own thier home?  Perhaps some careful drilling and running
good-quality cables under the floor will be an answer they're willing
to live with.
