Q: Is it completly wirles

A: No it allows surround speakers to be connected, by wires, to a wireless sub woofer, which I put behind my couch. This means no wires running to the TV/Soundbar side of the room.

Q: What they mean by 5.1 channel?

A: 5.1 means you have 5 separate sound channels. front right, front left, center and a right rear and a left rear channel. The .1 indicates a subwoofer for deep bass. If whatever you're watching is broadcast in 5.1 it will really sound good. Basically 5.1 is designed to make the listener feel they are there in the movie.

Q: wireless?

A: The subwoofer is wireless.

Q: What accessories do I need for tv hookup or does it come with

A: No it does not come with cables to hook up to your tv, it has 1 HDMI input 1 HDMI output, for a single device hook up, it also has a fiber optic digital audio input. If your television has the fiber optic digital audio output, that would be the recommended way to go. If you go HDMI you will be splitting and replicating your video signal which will tend to cause a little bit of signal degradation and if you have to use and HDMI selector you'll have even more degradation to your video signal. Yes the fiber optic will have some degradation to the audio signal, however, this is not a high end speaker (decent middle of the road "convenient" speaker) and you aren't going to be able to tell the difference with a slight audio degradation, however, depending on your television and or devices you could see an impact on the video quality. Anther nice part about the fiber optic is that you can have multiple devices connected to various HDMI inputs on your television, and if it's smart even streaming and have the sound bar always on the same input just change the television input, this makes it very convenient. I have mine set up in my bedroom and have a blu ray, digital cable box and amazon streaming from the television. As a side note, this is not going to perform anywhere near the level of surround sound receiver and wired speakers, however, if you're just looking to for a significant improvement to the television audio, or want surround sound on a budget, or extremely simple and convenient than this product fits that need. If you're expecting a theater like experience, this (nor no other sound bar) will be able to deliver, you'll need to spend the $$$ to go separate receiver and wried speakers. So knowing the limitation of this system, as long as you're okay with them, then this is a great product!

Q: What's the length of the sound bar?

A: This soundbar is 38" long

Q: will this sound system work with my Mitsubishi projection TV Model WT-42313 ?

A: This sound bar should work with any device that has a matching audio output such as optical or Analog Stereo.

Q: Are the rear speakers wireless on this unit?

A: no they are not. They connect to the subwoofer with a speaker cable.
