Thread: Racetracks for hiding cables

Was a little expensive, but since I am in an apartment, drilling holes in the wall just to run cable was not really an option, and it came out pretty good. I used the "paint-able" kind and matched it to the wall color, which is an off white / cream sort of color (not the "bright white" of the racetrack).

Checked the prices at Lowe's and they're pretty close to the ones that Home Depot carries. I still haven't seen a similar product for cheaper so I'll probably end up using them again and just having to eat the cost. Finally mounted my speakers last night and right now, the wires are all strung up using command photo hooks until I find a better solution. I might just keep them like this until I get the new speakers since I'll have to run the wires again anyways. It's functional right now, just doesn't look all that great.
