Buddy has a Soundbar that has the 10 posts for the surround sound on the back. The soundbar is around 3-5ft above the receiver,so it wouldn't take much wire. Instead of cutting 5 runs of 2 conductor speaker wire,he wants to try and find one cable that has all 10 wires in some sort of casing.I am not aware of any that have 10,but I have seen them with 8 conductors.He would then only have two cables instead of the 5. I was also thinking about getting some speaker cable from BJC and putting them inside maybe some tech flex,etc. Not sure which route to take.:confused:Suggestions?

Flex, or some sort of visually appealing conduit is your best bet.

You could try an electronics store, like Newark, but the cable would likely be sold by the roll, which is way more than you need, and likely pay for.
