Surround sound
speaker wire Only
after you've thought out and planned for surround sound speaker placement and wiring are you ready to buy speaker wire. You'll need to order at
least enough speaker wire to run from the back of your surround sound receiver to each of 5 or more speakers.
Subwoofer cable You'll also need to purchase a separate subwoofer interconnect cable to run from the receiver to your
subwoofer's location that's long enough to allow for optimal
subwoofer placement. (Don't forget that you will also need
some audio/video cables to connect the rest of your home theater
component system!)
If you will be
running any of your speaker wires in the walls, you might
as well use the same in wall speaker wire for all of them.
Not only will you not have issues with electrical code, your
surround sound system just plain SOUNDS and WORKS better when
you install the same exact speaker wire for all of your
speakers. We recommend Monster Cable's standard in-wall speaker cable shown to the right.
If
you anticipate difficulty in drilling or cutting holes in the
floor, walls, or ceiling, and fishing lots of wires, consider going
with flat speaker wire.
