Help help from Ireland

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
Hi everyone
I am a complete novice with all this so I need help, I'm building a house and it is being tracked for wiring, now I'm a builder so all that is 2nd nature to me but I want to future proof my new house for speakers in in ceilings downstairs, and then have it multi room, along with tv multi room for 7 zones including a cinema room
I have had a guy in to give me a price, but problem is I will not be able to view or hear the equipment he is recommending to sell and put together for me, I have seen the control4 working in his house and it looks amazing,
I need to pull cat6 to every room 2 each and 3 coaxial, he is talking a bout using a dune had media player and a matrix to run the system, ( I can post up all the equipment spec if needed)
My question is is 2 cat6 enough to each tv point, as is 3 coaxial? And what type of speaker cable should I use?

I am waiting on prices from different av specialist and I really need to get the cat6 pulled through and coaxial and might have to without there advice? Any help is much app!!

I'd run three cat6 cables to each tv. One for network and two for HDMI over CAT. Cat6 cable is cheap, sucks to not have enough. Not sure on the coax though. Kind of depends on how things are done on your side of the pond. Two coax has been enough for me here (so far).

Thanks Pete he says the 3 coaxial is for left and right audio? I will take photos and mayb start a thread on a new house build, with cinema room @ a later stage where would be the best to post this or start this topic?
Thanks again for your advice, with the above equipment would it be difficult to install this myself?
Thanks
Darren
