anybody have any experience with running an HDMI cable from above and behind the fireplace laterally to bookshelf cabinet. It needs to go about 4ft to the right and 4 ft downward.
Guys, he said behind his fireplace. Most fireplaces have plenty of space behind them to route wires behind the studs. My builder installed a PVC tube to bring the cables down to my cabinet.
If you want it clean, you'll have to install a wall box/ plate to run the wires in as well. If that's not critical, just cut a clean hole in both and fish it down. I've done it multiple times through my fireplace area.

Not every fireplace is built the same. He also said that after going 4' down he needs to go 4' to the right. If he wants to hide the wires behind the wall that can be a nasty proposition.
