Surround Speaker wire Recs - WAF need


I have gone home theater route in my old (60 year) house. We are having remodeling done and my installer tells me the only viable place is along the baseboards. I need a good and fast recommendation for this. The wire needs to be unobtrusive. Have three runs of about 45 feet Thanks. Richard

Get up in the attic, carefully measure which studs you need to be between, and raise and drop the wire through electrical outlet sized holes. You can use cable tv outlets to cover them. No attic? AudioQuest makes a very flat wire that's supposed to sound good on long runs from Audio Advisor. Have your remodeler put a 3/4" mortise bit in his router and rout a dado in the back of the molding just deep enough to hold the wire. No problem.
Dude got his wires run, satisfied his wife, and nobody insulted Carl, a pretty good day. Now if someone would get the point of Trelja's post about auctions, we hit for the cycle.
Marcy- if you use a putty knife about 4" wide at the tip and moderately stiff close to the nails, the trim pulls off easily, although the occasional break will happen. Ifyou do remove drywall from the bottom,even tho a small gap is left by the taper to avoid wicking moisture into the wall, fill the space with an expanding spray insulation. Avoid "Great Stuff", it expands too much, really bad around windows and doors. DAP makes a similar product which expands much less. The room will be warmer and the critters will have to find another way in. Routing the back is still best. Say, I wonder if a shelf made of DAP would be a good damper for the Plinius? Let's ask REDKIWI!
