Surround Sound Requires Wire Management
The home theater experience is all about getting as close to a cinema experience as you can -- all without leaving your living room. And that means setting up surround sound. Surround sound means you are setting up speakers that go beyond the ones simply built into your TV. A typical surround sound system has a speaker above your TV, a speaker on either side of it, two more stationed behind where you sit and a subwoofer. More advanced systems have even more speakers in the mix. All this means a lot of home theater speaker wires to contend with. You can buy cable organizational tubing for less than $10 made especially for home theater systems. The tubing will clean up home theater speaker wires and cable clutter behind your home theater system by consolidating it all into one tube. Some products come with numbered stickers to help you ensure proper connection between your technology. There are also speaker wire adapter kits on the market made to accommodate specific systems. You can buy such kits at your local technology store.
