@@handydadtv 🤣🤣....I have a question I want to do this but unfortunately I don't have open wall access like in this case, or do I have attic access. How can I run my wires without either of these scenarios?
I’d make a hole at the top where you want the speaker, and at the bottom right above the baseboard. Then drop a small nut tied with fishing line and use a magnet to get it through the bottom hole. Hope there’s no insulation or fire block in the wall. Tie your speaker wire to the fishing line and pull it through. That’s the best you’re going to get.
Since the wall in the adjacent room was exposed to the studs, wouldn’t it have been simpler to drill the hole for the wires on the wall level with where your equipment is to be mounted and run the left and right speaker wires up and through the studs to directly to the areas where you mount the speakers? Sorry about the run-on sentence... ;0)
Great informative video. Awesome work! The Vizio is more cost effective and economical. However, did you guys look into the SONOS systems? They are expensive, but they are wireless. I’ve been considering it.
Forget all those wires. Sonos is the only way to go. They aren’t really that expensive either. I got the ones for $100 a piece, Sub for $600, and beam for $200 recently. $1000 for premium sound and none of the nonsense installation and costs that come with that even for diy.
How did you first of all run the wires from the tv to the speakers? Also if you put two wires through the joist yet two into the boom box .where did the wires come from for the little speakers?
Seems way to high relative to your ears while on the couch. Could have just punched through the drywall at a lower position and run the wires out that way I guess.
Never really showed where in relation to your seating area these “left and right rear speakers” are. Are they both off to one side of your couch and tv?
@@handydadtv it’s a sound bar with rear speakers. I understand that’s a “5.1” but there aren’t 3 separate front channels, unless I saw wrong, and the rears are too small for that size room I would guess.
Love how the thumbnail is “installer exposes tips and tricks” like this is supposed to be some Area 51 secret. Thank god for the internet exposing the gatekeepers. That’s what the thumbnail should read “installer exposes the gatekeepers”. I will NEVER pay someone to just do the work ever again. If I hire you, you better be willing to answer questions and teach. Not come in, do the job, and collect a paycheck. I’ll dispute the bill if someone refuses to let me ask them questions. Can’t believe I was stupid enough to pay some contractors that didn’t even tell me they were done. Just left. Had a roof project. Contract knocks on the door early to tell me they are starting. Literally only time I saw them. Just left after being done. This is bullshit

This was the most real video I've ever watched.
Thanks. I gave up trying to appear professional. 🤣
@@handydadtv I'd call it "professional enough."

@@handydadtv ok thanks that's a great idea. What would the small nut be for?
Love that you guys show what’s it really like to do stuff. You don’t edit out the unexpected
Thanks! Glad you like it. 😊
You Rock Pop! One of my best sources of Joy is doing things for my kids and grandkids
Joy like nothing else.

I've done stuff like this with network cables for cameras and access points all too often. Good work.
Thanks
Thanks this was helpful for the project I have in mind.
Glad it was helpful

I have a friend who has Sonos for home audio and loves it. But she doesn’t use it for TV audio.

Enjoyed the video
Thank you 😊

The subwoofer is wireless. The little rear speakers are connected to the subwoofer. We just needed to hide those wires.
Nice cheers collections
Thanks

True, but they sound great and are less obtrusive.
Never really showed where in relation to your seating area these “left and right rear speakers” are. Are they both off to one side of your couch and tv?
They are on the wall opposite from the TV. The speakers face the TV.
Nice vid
Thanks appreciate it
Could’ve just ran all the wires in the unfinished area instead of hiding them in the crown moulding.
The right speaker has a finished bathroom behind it. That’s why I had to leverage the crown molding.
If you were going to do all that work you should just installed a proper 5.1 sound system.
It is 5.1.

@TheCdM1981 I know it’s not the best, but it still sounds awesome. It’s the best room in the house to watch a movie.

Agree wholeheartedly 👆🏻👆🏻👆🏻
Is this guy Brandon from investment joy? Sounds just like him.
Not me but I’ll check it out.
@@handydadtv yeah. I saw the person and I knew it wasn't. But it's scary how similar the narrator sounds. XD
13:05 Movie Name ?? Please..🙂
Freaky Friday
@@handydadtv thank u
