i hope your good at drywall repairs. being a apartment your landlord is going to flip if you channel out for the wires and not repaired right. theres more to it then just a little spackle if doing it as you plan.
i remove some base board and drill a hole and then drill a small hole above and using a wire fish tape pull the wire though .it be a pain but one little whole a lot better to repair then a strip in the middle of a wall.also make sure you use a razer knife and run the top edge of the trim board to cut though any paint .becouse there a very good chance you'll pull off more then the baseboard when you pry it away from the wall. how much work are you willing to do for some speaker wires in a apartment .you need to ask your self. and is it really worth it? also remember matching paint is a pain to get the color just right.and white is not just white.one companys white may be brighter or lighter then another paint companys.
