Stealth Surround Sound with hidden wires

I have a good surround system, but often I was stuck in plenty of speaker wires, which humiliated me a lot. My room looked like hell with wires spreading everywhere so tried out the idea one-box virtual surround sound system, but the quality of sound never pleased me so I tried a few ideas of Dennis McLaughlin to get Stealth Surround Sound.

1. I popped the tiles and fixed the cables above the ceiling grid. You can ever go for special plastic channels called raceways or wire channels that you mount to your wall.

2. If you are not comfortable with this you have an option to hide speaker wire under the baseboard moulding or the carpet.

3. You can even try with In-Wall/In-Ceiling Speakers they provide a tidy look.

I tried out these idea and result is, now my room looks tidy and well managed and I got all this without sacrificing the surround sound quality. Even you should try them.
