Find yourself an Electrician. More than capable of installing your cabling within
the fabric of the building.

You could also do it yourself nobby. You will get all the advice you require
right here on the forum. And you will get an enormous feeling of self
achievement too.

DIY? Me???

I'd love to do it my self but I don't have the time to do it really. (I know... LAZY!) I'd get an electrician but I'd prefer a Home Cinema expert so I get sound advice on the right cables etc.

Having just purchased an Oppo DVD Player too to go with the Set up I can honestly recommend these products. Its taken a lot of patience and reading through everyones great advice here on AV Forums.

Thanks again for your advice.

You could find that an 'expert' will advise you to pay out for mega expensive wiring!?!?

Do your research on here, source your own kit and then get an electrician to install it...

I got a guy off this site to do my install - his name's Projectorboy (I think...).

He lives in Blackpool, but comes this way a fair bit. If you want his phone number, PM me
