I'm sure this has been asked before but I tried searching and couldn't find it.
Wiring a new house for 5.1 surround and need to know a few things.
I realize that it is not desirable to have "breaks" in the cables or at least minimize the "breaks" but I dn't see any other way to do this with my setup.
What are my choices as far as how the cables are to be connected on the inside of the wall plate (in the wall)? Soldered, etc????
What are my choices on connections on the wall plate on the outside of the wall? Springed push buttons(not sure of the technical name) or banana plugs, etc????
I was thinkning of just buying a blank double wall plate and fabricating my own. Any input/tips/alternatives to doing this?
I've already run the wires so all I need to do is get some plates/connectors and wait fo the sheetrock people to start.
Thanks for any help.
