So I just mounted a tv on my wall, but there are wires running everywhere from my cable box, xbox, and sound bar. What is the best way to hide all these damn wires?
TIA.

Depends on where they are plugged in. I just tap holes in sheet rock and run it behind there

Sledgehammer a couple of holes in the wall and put them in there

They have in wall boxes at home depot or the amazon.
It is worth the extra work.

Paint wires same color as wall

What type of wall? What's on the other side of the wall?

I bought a piece of channel molding from lowes or hd that is made for just such situation. it covers a half dozen wires and is just not noticeable at all...I'll try to find a link to it.

Run them through the wall.

A fireplace...
That's why it's kinda F'd. I'm new to this and am not sure if I can start creating a bunch of holes to make this look better. The wires are driving me mad though.

For my bedroom I bought a plastic channel piece from Amazon. I painted it with extra wall paint I had and nailed it in with a couple small nails. For the living room I just used a hole saw drill attachment an snaked the wires using a fish tape.

Do you have access to a scope camera and wall fish equipment?
Posted on 8/25/15 at 8:18 pm to Nashty
Place the cable box, xbox, and sound bar on top of or in close proximity of one another & zip - tie the cables together...
