Music Bridge

Several years ago, I went to the trouble of wiring my entire house to access
the net via coax, placing speaker terminals and phone jacks in each outlet
as well. At the time, I even envisioned the possibility of playing internet
radio through my stereo system, although I was neither an audiophile nor a
computer geek; just a retired guy with an interest in what appeared to be at
the time, a neat project.
All went well... surprisingly. Everything works ... except for that last
idea. The wire I used to run back to my stereo was mono, not stereo. Problem
is, each room has two sets of wires in order to deliver stereo. I had
assumed the wire I needed to put through the walls was one like all the
others I used for my speakers. Problem was... I wasn't going to speakers
from my computer with that wire; I was going to my stereo receiver... and I
went there with just one speaker wire; mono.
Now enter wireless home networks and the "wireless music bridge". I'm hard
wired. I like the bridge idea; it'll make up for the mistake I made
(threading the walls through three floors was not a pleasant task!). My
question: Since I plan to remain hard wired with regard to my home network,
can I still throw into one of my computers a wireless network card, buy a
wireless bridge, plug it into my stereo system, and pipe music throughout
the hard wired speaker system I have throughout the house? I'm concerned
about confusing the computers if I'm on the net through my hard wired home
network and still trying to use those (at least one) computers to drive or
feed that wireless bridge.
Is there an easier way considering what I've already done?
