Hi all!
I am in the final stages of prepping my room for equipment. After the fiasco of drilling and mounting my front curtain rod through my lathe and plaster wall, I have decided I will NOT be running my surround speaker wire in-wall as I had planned.
That leaves me with the surface mount option for wire. I will be wall mounting the speakers - that at least is just a few screw holes versus a bigger hole for fishing wire. (Plaster and big holes = no fun)
Has anyone here used any of the flat adhesive backed speaker wire?
I was thinking of using that to go up the walls then over to the surrounds, and then tying the flat cable in to regular speaker wire for the remainder of the run.
Then I can paint over the flat wire on the wall.
I guess my main concern is being able to get bends in the flat wire - can it get into a 90 degree bend?
