External Wire Control Solutions - What do you use? - Blu-ray Forum

I know I've seen some sort of flexible cabling that groups all your wires into one - who has it, what is it, and where can I get it? I've seen some at IKEA but it's just so...horrid looking!

In-wall is not for me as I'm renting my current house.

I use plastic tubing that I found in the electrical department at Home Depot or Lowe's. I think it was pretty cheap. At least in my store, it was in the section that has all the Cat5 cables and RJ45 plugs. I bought it originally to keep all the wires of my home computer network organized. the left over I use on my HT wires.

Come on. No one has anything else? Look, if I go with Lou's idea, and I don't like it, I'm coming after someone with a 000 -AWG steel cable.

google "raceway", "Cable raceway", those terms will net you some results. I pickup my stuff @ Lowes.

Many auto parts stores have cable jackets which can be used for many kinds of wiring. The jacket is slit along one side, so you just bunch the cables up and stuff them. A zip tie usually is enough to hold it all in place.
