I am in the process of having a townhome built. In a week I am meeting with the guy to run any additional wiring for the house.
I am having the living room pre-wired for 5.1 and perhaps 7.1. What questions should I ask. I should make sure he is using the correct gauge wire. How will the speakers be connected after the pre-wire? Are there plates or connections installed near where the receiver will be that I connect to the receiver?
Also, I am having cable jacks installed in every room. I believe comcast does that. What should I think about if I want DirecTV with Tivo capabilities.
Finally, I am having at least a 4-port wired network installed. Does it make sense to put on of the connections in the living room near where the receiver will be.
If anyone has done this before any other advice will be appreciated.
Thanks
Todd
