Running Speaker Wire through Drywall


Hi all!

Does anyone have experience of running speaker wire or cable through drywall? I wanted to put 2 surround speakers but don't know how to run speaker wire down the drywall into the basement. I already have the electronic hand held stud finder and know how to use it. In my mind, I am thinking of drilling a hole big enough to stick the cable though. Since there are the foamy material (not sure the correct name?) to keep the house warm, how do I run the speaker wire down to the basement.

Does anyone know a good website link that explains how to run speaker cable through the drywall and straight down to the basement?

I have taken few pictures but I can not attach to this forum. I would have to email them to you. My basement is not finish.

Thanks!!

Just hire an electrician. They can do this quickly and neatly and in the long run cost less than gathering all the tools, your time and not to mention the cost of damaging the dry wall (that is, I assume, what you are most concerned with).
