I'm getting my first HT and I want to run the wires in the walls. I'm pretty crafty at home projects and this should be no problem, but can anyone offer me any tips or equipment recomendations. I really can't have any exposed cables (running them across the floor) as I have a son who will be walking soon and don't want him tripping on them.
I'm looking at putting a box in the wall directly behind the entertainment center that will house my receiver, and then running the wire up the inside of that wall, across the attick, and down the other side where I will install another box. This way, the only wire I have is from the box to the speakers. I'm pretty sure I'll have no problems, but what are the drawbacks to this, and will I have any problems doing this for my powered sub?
The total distance between the boxes should be about 20-25 feet. Then the rear speakers should be about 5-7 feet from the box and the sub probably 7-9 feet away.
One more thing, does anyone have any pictures to help guide me?
TIA - Scott
