In traditional wood stud/drywall construc-

 

tion you can cut the hole for the speaker

 

and utilize the large hole to auger holes

 

across, up or down the wall for as far as

 

your drill bit will take you. If you have

 

matching paint and take reasonable care in

 

patching you can cut a hatch in the dry-

 

wall at each stud, run your wire, and patch

 

and touch-up the wall (See Figure 14).

 

When you are dealing with the unknown

 

because of the structure of your home, or

 

with difficult to patch wall materials like

 

plaster, lath and plaster, faux finishes,

 

wallpaper etc., be patient. A careful study

 

of the potential problems before you start

 

the job will pay off.
