RE: Loudspeaker Cabling?

["Nikola Kasic" <nikola@xxxxxxx>]

I decided to put a single speaker in each room for announcements and possibly background music.

I have surround sound in the lounge.

I plan to use KAT5 and put separate amp+stereo speakers in bedroom.

And that should be enough for me.

There's no point mounting surround speakers on the ceiling. There's no way you'll be able to create proper sound stage with them, I think.

I've already run ceiling mounted loudspeaker feeds back to Node 0 but now I
want to drop some loudspeaker cabling into the corner of each room to
facilitate the use of an individual "hi-fi" set up.

These cables will be run back to readily accessible locations above the room
where I can cross-connect to allow me any permutation of  loudspeakers/amp
location in each room.

I'm trying to decide how many 79/0.2 cables to drop down the wall.
I'll obviously need one per corner to feed the loudspeaker in the distant
corners but do I need to allow for feeds to rear speakers for surround sound
and centrally located "woofers" or whatever?

I'm guessing that five/six feeds down into each corner will be more than
adequate, has anybody got any thoughts?
