You are confused I think on what wifi is. You certainly can use it if you wish, you just need a device like the Sonos or Squeezebox, or a USB to SPDIF converter to get the digital out of your computer. Read up on here, there are tons of threads, and if you have specific questions then post and you should get good response.

Cheap way would be from your speaker or headphone jach using splitter that will allow you to go from one jack at the PC to 2 RCA jacks into your pre amp, cheap and reasonable results for audio files.

Several ways, depending on your computer outputs:

USB Port>USB Cable>USB DAC>RCA Cable>Pre

SoundCard Digital Out>Digital Coax Cable>DAC>RCA Cable>Pre

SoundCard RCA Out>RCA Cable>Pre

Soundcard mini-jack out>mini-jack to RCA Cable>Pre

Audio, yes. Video, no. I'm using a LinkSys Wireless MusicBridge that connects via coax digital into my HK pre-pro. I can play any audio file from my PC (via WinAmp) and stream it out to my hi-fi. It cost me $55 and about 1 hour of setup time...
