My suggestion which audiophiles would kill me for is much the same as
Ian Stirling's. 0.1" pitch ribbon cable would be ideal for this,
depending on the thickness of the underlay beneath the laminate you
may even be able to get away without routing the floor at all.


Thirded. Ribbon cables are very very flat, and easy to get in many widths
(or run several strips!).

Each conductor in typical 0.1" cable is capable of carrying 2A and since the
cores all have good heat dissipation this doesn't really go down much with
number of conductors, as a round cable would.

Just pick a size you can get cheaply and bundle together as many conductors
as you want for each side of the speaker connection.
