Title: How To Hook Up Your Home Theater

Walt Disney has released a collection of animated short films to Netflix. For those wanting a comprehensive guide to home theater, scroll to the 24 minute mark. Animators have embraced classic Goofy and added a modern twist. Fair warning... you will laugh. A lot.  :rofl:

^ I know what you mean.  Been there, wiring up the Testing Lab at Creedmoor State Hospital.  (I don't think it's still a hospital.)

Got a pair of  those long 12-outlet power strips from Harbor Freight to help "discipline" my own under-the-coffee-table wiring mess.  IIRC, they've got 14 ga wiring as opposed to the crappy 20 ga some of them have.

Not much power flow at any one time to my stuff, but what with all the periphs using wall warts, it's getting pretty snake-pitty down there.

At least the professionals who bring power, phone and cable signals TO your home can be relied on to do a neat and proper routing job.

My God, those wiring are surely like spagetti and could be very dangerous to all including the homeowner. Where is this located?
