| Re: Pre-wire for Projectors
I've used a plumbers snake a couple of times and it has worked well... but pulling some type of extra cable or heavy duty string through for future wire pulls is a smart idea. If you ever do put one through later on, don't forget to pull a new one with the new cable you pull. I used my old s-video cable to pull my HDMI cable through.
As far as size... go as big as you can. I have one set of components and a tiny remote sensor wire in my 3" pipe with one 90° angle about midway where the ceiling meets the wall. Even with this big of a pipe it was still somewhat of a challenge pulling that HDMI cable through there when I installed my Z4 a few months ago.
Don't forget that if you stay with the receiver you have been considering you will be running a cable for each source being that receiver has no HDMI switcher on it. While typing this I don't remember how many sources you plan on having.
