Speaker Wire and Install Questions - Reciever to 5.1 System

[MPDIEHL]

Either wire will work fine...what color will hide better
I personally prefer these type of plug http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2
I find them easier to connect as well as the fact the wire exits from the bottom not the back.

As far as how much cable...measure up and around anything in the way to getting to the surrounds.
I needed to add about 20 feet to mine to go up and down the sides of my sliding doors. 100 ft sounds shy to me but check the runs you need and dont leave your lines too short to move things around when your done.
