My fiancee and I live in an apt. so i couldn't really drill the large holes in the wall to run my speaker wire... I currently have red wires running down from the speakers behind the couch...I'd really like to conceal them before her fam comes to visit... any suggestions as to how i should hide them!?!? Thanks

The only wire concealment kits I found were at bestbuy... does anyone know of something better?

    Something along these lines might work. Just a strip that you'd tack onto the baseboard or whatever.

    I personally like the look of wires going every direction in my living room though...;)

    I think you are talking about the wires hanging down from your back speakers and down to the floor behind your couch? I saw the ones you were talking about at BB and something like that would be your best bet, you can paint it whatever color you need to match your walls.

    You might want to look into this stuff. It is flat and has a white cover that you can stick to baseboards and hide it completely.

    I've used this stuff before and it works great, especially for HT applications where you have several wires running all over the place, even vertically up walls where it just looks like a piece of molding and no holes required!
