I am trying to mount my two front speakers next to my LCD TV. But I
can figure out the best way to hide my speaker wire and connect them to my receiver without wires showing. Any ideas? Thanks!! |

The only true way of hiding your wires is running them through the
wall. It is basicly the same as adding a new electrical outlet. If your not up for that, get your wife to do some decorateing (pictures,plants,etc...) to hide the wires behind something. Steve |

The best way to hide the wires would be to use - wait for it... - Wireless Speakers! http://www.practical-home-theater-gu...s-systems.html |

The best sounding speakers may not be the wireless ones. |

Were you maybe planning on putting crown moulding in that room? If so do it now and run the wire inside it. Or you can route a groove in the back of chair rail and run the wire in that groove and chair rail the room. Or just pop the base board and run it behind that. You may be able to hammer it between the carpet and baseboard with a piece of 1/8 inch lattice scrap. There is stick-on plastic channel that you paint with the wall. Wireless speakers sound like crap, go for wired. |

Paint the wires the same color as the wall. Or, you can install inside wall wiring with terminal plates. |

Wires showing? Why are you so interested at looking at the wires? Wouldn't it be better to look at the screen? |
