Well the title pretty much sums it up. I need to run a sub cable and rear surrounds beneath the floor to the back of the room. Is it ok to run them together or should i keep them apart?

    Your fine with them running together. They are both low voltage wires and wont have any issues running next to each other

    Shielded speaker cables, really?
