for my setup, i pulled hdmi cable, 2 or 3 cat 6 cables, and i used central vacuum pipe as best as i could. i also ran some string through the central vac pipes so that i can pull the cables if i need to. depending upon where the drop was, i also ran digital audio in case i need to send digital audio to or from the tv. i also pulled speaker cable where i could, including subwoofer cable.

why so many cat 6? i figured that, if the worst happened, i could use the cable for infrared to my server room, or cat 6 for network, or even hdmi runs. mono price has a good section on there to use cat 6 for different stuff.

or maybe i won't need it at all. but i bought a box of 1000 feet for cheap so i figured...why not?

just make sure to go with more than cat 5.
