Monster cable is a HUGE ripoff.
And *NEVER* spend extra money on anything digital. Digital is digital -- either it works, or it doesn't.
What everyone's saying is basically right. There are too many downsides to wireless speakers. For one thing, you still have to plug them in.
Do you own your place? Do you have any closet/attic space that you can use to mount amps in? If you're not averse to spending a little $, I put in a system a few years back that kicked ass -- the whole system was for about 3 rooms. Including the source equipment, I think it was about $20,000. Of course, you probably wouldn't need a $5000 turntable like this lady did 
But check out Linn and their in-wall control systems. Very cool. If you get these things professionally installed, they can do a very clean job.

Premium cable is worth the money in an appropriate system, and you can hear the difference. What's your experience with evaluating cable?
Also, digital is NOT digital. There are things like jitter distortion, phase shifts, power supplies, as well as the analog line stages of digital products that effect the sound. CD players do not all sound the same. That is a huge myth that has been largely dispelled, and I'm surprised to read it hear.
