I had to scrap this post because Home Depot's website doesn't appear to support direcct links to certain pages. You can go to their homepage and search for a product called "cordmate".

This would be another option if you wanted to hide wire in the room. I recently spent a small fortune on this stuff, but now that everything is wired in it looks great. The only tip I've got is if you're using regular >14ga cable, you won't be able to run 2 wires through the smaller Cordmate (at least not easily). You'll need the slightly beefed-up version.

Thanks for the tip sidvicious02. I will have to check out Princess Auto.

Would you say that the RCA's that you describe are comparable to the Dayton stuff from PartsExpress? Those were the ones I was planning on getting but if the Princess Auto one's are just as good that will save me some serious $.
Could I just use 5 of them as well to set up multichannel audio from a DVD player?

Having never owned Dayton cables I can't say for sure, but from the looks of the Parts Express website, they also appear to be of rugged/good quality design. I'm sure they are all of similar quality, the only real reason I picked up the "Tsunami" brand was the pretty colours (yellow, purple, green - i picked yellow). When I unscrewed the end, the solder connections appeared to be solid. I did not really examine the cheapest Rocoton ones closely, but I'm sure they are of equal quality. You could easily use either kinds to hook up multichannel audio. Should save you some serious coin.

(must warn you though, your local Princess Audio might not have the same stock. Because they are kind of a clearance center for so many different products, they may not have the same stock another location has).
