Yes, most quality speakers of any type can serve that purpose well

I BELIEVE yes, but they still have to connect to each other via a wire. Which is lame and kills it for me

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. (Id love to be wrong about this)

Yes, wireless is just Bluetooth.

The connections on the back are a hot/neutral out to the other speaker, subwoofer out if you want to make a 2.1 system, RCA line input, and a toslink optical input.

Currently there is no way to piece together random speakers and a receiver to take the input and transmit the audio to them without extensive DIY work, and probably a few Raspberry Pis with the knowledge on how to program them.
