My apartment has plaster walls and I want to set up a 5.1 surround sound system. I have the cambridge soundworks satellite speakers and I think in order to set them up nice I need to mount them off the ceiling. I am thinking using a router to cut a channel 1/2" deep by 1/2" wide into the plaster wall to run the speaker wires. It would require a lot of channeling, re-plastering (spackling) and re-painting. Do any of you guys have experience with plaster wall and speaker wires?
