Do NOT worry about a difference in speaker cable length, it will make NO audible difference unless one is 5 ft. and the other 5,000 ft...

Banana Plug Wall Plate w/Cabling
I've used something like this: http://www.homedepot.com/p/CE-TECH-6-Port-Wall-Plate-White-5006-WH/202689886 You should be able to fit a cable through some of the holes and they offer flush covers for the unused holes (leaving little to no room for small toys). I used this to wire in some cat5e for internet and used an extra hole when satellite dish was installed and just passed it through to the satellite box (they also offer connections for coax, but I wasn't motivated to go get some). I've also used the banana plug wall plates to route cable to my surround speakers and a second zone. It is nice to have the clean look (and easy hookup and disconnect) and sound quality wasn't as critical to those speakers. My amp is near my front speakers, so they are direct connect. |
Regarding question #1: I would get a box cover, drill a hole to fit the speaker wire, determine the length of wire to extend beyond the cover, wrap electrical around speaker wire on interior of cover so that wire cant be pulled through. No break in wire needed. Cover can be painted same as wall. Little cost. I agree with Theo, your Tritons are a great value. |
In the end I got a few options, but for my speakers I am going to try use those hole covers for desks. They have a two-inch diameter, and I also got a 2-inch hole drill bit, so hopefully all fits well. I also like the small circular look better than bigger wall plates. Here is what I bought. http://tinyurl.com/ntudj7d k. |
