spokebender Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Tore into wall to route HDMI feed to wall-mounted LCD TV and decided to also put speaker wiring in the wall. I am routing three speaker cables through wall to access panel on far side of the room. I know that I must avoid AC wiring, but I was wondering if there will be any trouble if I bundle all three speaker wires together and pull them through to the access panel. Also, I presume there is minimal radiation from the LCD display and that there will not be a problem running the wires behind the display. Drywall guys are showing up in three days and I want to get it right before they buttom everything up. Any useful insights to share? Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByteWrangler Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Use speaker wire rated for in-wall installation. It's available at the big-box home improvement stores, as well as various other places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJkizak Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Or if it really bothers you run it through steel electrical conduit, not plastic. JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silo Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 For long runs use a 14/2. I found some good wire and prices at http://www.fourpair.com/cat--CL3-Audio--CL3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
