Ok so let me set this up. My dad is updating his TV to a HDTV this weekend, and now that the TV won't be a 4:3 projection on top of a large speaker cabinet, there is room to move the components under the tv in some sort of stand. The receiver is in a built in cabinet in the home theater about 5' off the ground with all the speaker wire run through the wall right behind it.

He wants to move the receiver down, but we don't know if the speaker wire will permit that, and there is certainly no way to re-run longer wire.

Does anyone know of a good solution? I've come down to 3 options A) I don't know if there is a good connector to attach more cable to lengthen it.
B) Although it is pretty tight in there, would some sort of IR blaster or extender work? I've never used one so I don't really know what the idea is behind it

or

C) No hope just leave it there and buy longer cables for other components.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

p.s. my M22's, V100, and QS8's shipped today! I can't wait and am grateful for another project to keep me busy for the weekend.
