I use something called Logitech Music Anywhere. You can read the press 
release at 
http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/about/pressroom/information/US/EN,CRID=1358,CONTENTID=10882. 
Obviously, you can get more information and find the best prices using 
Yahoo!.

It has a transmitter which plugs into your PC's USB port. There's also a 
receiver with multiple output jacks including RCA jacks to plug directly 
into your stereo receiver. It uses a bluetooth connection between the 
transmitter and the receiver, so you get digital sound. The software for 
your PC allows you to set the systems default output device or the 
output device for different media players, including Real Player, 
Windows Media Player and Winamp. I find the software completely accessible.

It takes a little getting used to since once you plug in the 
transmitter, it becomes the default audio output device, including that 
for JAWS. I use the Music Anywhere software to set the system's default 
audio device back to the PC's sound card, restart JFW, and now JAWS is 
using the PC speakers again. I then make sure Windows Media Player's 
Audio output device is the receiver I want and then everything I play 
with Windows Media Player comes out my stereo.

Note that the transmitter and the PC software support multiple 
receivers. In my case, I have one receiver attached to a set of powered 
speakers up stairs , and I have a pair of wireless headphones with a 
receiver built in. The PC software allows me to determine the target 
receiver.

Like I said, it took some trial and error getting it to work with JAWS 
and the different media players, but I'm pretty satisfied. note too that 
the range is something like 180 feet, which I don't understand, since 
I've always heard the range for bluetooth is 30 feet.

Finally, I built my system over time by buying different products 
through woot.com. I'd suggest you do some research on your own and don't 
just take what I said since things may have changed since I purchased 
the products I'm using. I'm sure there are also different options, such 
as FM transmitters. Good luck!
