I'm down to the point where I run nothing but 3/4" flex plastic conduit
for all my data/audio lines. That way I can upgrade to whatever is the
current state of the art. Who would have thought that Cat 5e cable would
now be obsolete when I did some remodeling 5 years ago? Especially since
5e was not available when I did it!!!

any reason not to use plain solid strand 14/2 NMD 90 wire. I have this wire
on hand and it is half the cost of speaker wire.
