I am needing to run 3 wires through the attic from the living room to the bedroom.
I'm looking for "decent" quality; it's purpose is to watch the TiVo or a DVD on a TV in the bedroom (about 20-25 inch- haven't bought one yet).
In the living room, I've got everything piped into my Sony STR-DA5ES, and I plan on running the Zone-2 to the bedroom. So, I'll need to run left & right audio, as well as the video (RCA jacks on all).
What wire do people recommend? The total run will be about 40-feet, and I've read about using co-ax (RG-6?). Since I've never seen coax used as an RCA-type cable, I'm not sure if I need any special type of cable, and where would I get the RCA plugs to put on it?
Additionally, I plan on putting in a wire for a Xantech remote sensor in the bedrom that will feed back to a small 2-zone connecting block in the living room (the other zone from the block will go outside to the hot-tub, for the 3rd zone of the Sony amp). It is my understanding that for the Xantech, all I need is 3 or 4-strand wire, so I plan on just running a long stretch of telephone wire.
Thanks!
