Home Theater Connectivity Question (Wireless Speaker Transmitter)

I have a standard a/v receiver that supports up to 7.1 channels. I would like to run a wireless speaker transmitter for my surrounds. The transmitter device is 2 components: a) receiver for speakers and b) transmitter for audio source.

http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_i...seq=1&format=2

What I’m not sure about is how to connect the transmitter to the back of the receiver so the corresponding speakers act as surrounds instead of playing full ‘range.’ The transmitter only has 1 connecting source and it’s 3.5mm. Can I use a 3.5mm to RCA female adapter, and then male RCA to speaker wire? I feel like this could be a potential issue because the speaker outs on the receiver should be passive. And connecting a powered device like the transmitter could fry the unit?

The Monoprice device is really made for a single stereo output from say, a computer, or music player. Not speaker level output.

This is the device you probably want: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/rocketfi...=1171058476489

It takes the actual speaker outputs from your receiver, converts it, transmits it, amps it, and then outputs it back out to your speakers
