Has anyone used flat speaker wire with adhesive backing? (1 Viewer)

Hi there,
I'm thinking of using this type of wiring for rear surrounds instead of in wall wiring. It's around 90-100 dollars for a 100ft. roll, but it has adhesive on the back and you can paint over it on the wall, cover up, etc.

Thanks,

John

I used this for speakers I wanted to have in my living room without cluttering up the room with a stereo system, (the system was upstairs). I only listen to the sat receiver and cds at low volume on that system so I can't really compare the wire to other speaker wire. If you want to use it for surrounds, though, I wouldn't thing it would be a big deal.

I am now using it for my surrounds and happy with it. However, I will say they are hid better when painted a color other than white. When I used them on a white wall, they are more visible; in fact unacceptable to wife.
