Hi, I'm new here and new to the whole HT experience too, so forgive me if this sounds a little stupid. I bought a house with an ancient sharp projector in the ceiling, probably 3 times the size of modern ones. It's already installed in the ceiling and its only cable (component) runs through...

Can anyone tell me if they know where I can get some 1" or 1" 1/2 conduit at a reasonable price? I really need about 25 feet, but I cannot really find what I want, everything is 100' rolls with $20 shipping. I have been looking high and low for this stuff. My local electrical supply does not...

I'm in the process of building a theater in my basement - which was previously unfinished area. Did a dual wall - with a separated joist ceiling for the theater (not connected to the existing ceiling). 2 layers of 5/8 Rock with Green Glue walls and ceiling. I"m in the process of doing...

I am about to start a DIY home theater in my unfinished basement and am concerned about picking up EMI in the low voltage cables (speakers, subwoofers, projector video, etc. )There are several electrical branch feeders serving the kitchen (directly above), as well as the house service main...

Just a quick question for this wonderful, helpful community this morning: I'm in the conduit running stage of my theater, all as part of a new house build. I hope to post some pictures later this weekend. I've got the conduits run for the speakers, and am now focusing on the projector. Going...

Anyone have any suggestions for how to install a run of Inch and a half conduit horizontally, about 5-6 feet, through an insulated exterior wall ? :dontknow: I have a TV that is to be mounted on a wall directly above an in-wall gas fireplace so i cannot go straight down to the crawlspace...

My thoughts have turned to the next stage of our build: the foundations and concrete slab. Obviously all the plumbing drains need to be part of the slab, but what of the wiring? I've noticed a number of slabs with much of the electrical wiring buried inside as well, and wonder if that should...

For new home theater construction - electrically speaking - would there be any benefit in running the speaker wires through conduit to help keep the EMF unwanted signals from other wiring from inducing a signal in the speaker wire ?
