In-wall surround sound

[Ja Rhule]

My house is prewired by CPI for surround sound. I got the speakers. I need someone who can install these speakers in my drywall and connect them to prewired cable. Any recommendations?

Wow dude, you use the huddle for all your home improvement needs. If I still lived in Charlotte I'd do your plumbing and yard for for you.

You'd be surprise how much money I saved thanks to huddle.

Do it yourself is my recommendation

In that application, make sure to use speakers in their own boxes and not open-air... Will sound wayyyy better.

what's an "open-air" speaker?

what's an "open-air" speaker?

That is when the "box" surrounding the speaker is removed, and it is mounted inside the wall without the box. Doing this allows for it to be placed in a smaller area, but a lot of the sound is lost inside the wall. The "boxes" allow for the sound to be reflected back into the room, and not absorbed by the building materials and insulation.

Are you capable of doing it yourself?

[Zod]

Give me a six pack and I will show up with a dozen rolls of duct tape and get er done for you.

I have never installed surround sound myself. I mean I can try but I hate to fug up and ruin my wall...
