Getting ready to build a house. Looking for cool ideas or things I need to do.
Here are some thoughts I had and have questions on:
1. Do I need to run Cat 5 wiring or the latest thing to each bedroom and connect them to the office where the router will be?
2. I was thinking about putting a speaker in some rooms with them all connected to the office. I think this would be cool to listen to music throughout the house. Is this crazy?
3. I have a family room in the basement that will sort of be the theater room. What type of surround sound should I get and how do I wire it?
4. Should I have Dish or Directv pre-wire my house or will the electrician do that?
Any other cool things I should be aware of? I probably should run internet access to where I want my TVs right? With online streaming a reality in the future, I should do this. Is Cat 5 the best?
