Wires on Walls
My boyfriend and I moved in together, we are 25 and 27 so obviously living with someone is a first for both of us and we are beginning to face the inevitable clash in ideal home decor.
That said, we are putting together our living room (mind you we have a one-bedroom apartment in downtown Chicago so this is also our living room, media center and entertaining room). We have a 47'' flat screen on top of our TV stand. We have surround sound speakers and have already mounted the rear speakers in corners on the opposite wall from the TV. He would like to hang the center speakers above and beside the TV and stand. Yes, visible wires. It was fine when we were living seperately but this just looks bachelor pad/tacky.
Does anyone have some suggestions?

Visable Wires
One suggestion. This is fairly simple but will require additional speaker wire. You can purchase a white wire cover at most home/audio centers. You will then need to run the speaker wire from the speaker down to the floor and then back up to the TV. Although this will still leave the wires on the outside of the wall it will hide them.
Another suggestion will be to run the wires in behind the walls. Unless either of you have experience at this I would recommend hiring an electrician or someone experienced in home/audio to complete this installation.
