Project Complete...

Done. Finis. Installation of twelve speakers, a new shelf in the closet, relocation of the stereo system components (CD player, tuner, amp, speaker distribution switches, etc.), all wiring, mountings, etc. -- all done. Including cleanup. Merry Christmas, Dubby. New shelf (above), and components. The flash washed out the control panels and controls. Below: Kitchen corner speaker. Below: rear view, showing the cable coming out of the ceiling. Below: A wallplate in the living room, containing the Ethernet port, phone lines, and speaker connections for the right-hand living room speaker. (There are already 24 Ethernet connections and 16 phone jacks throughout the house -- a result of an earlier project.)

Below: Left speaker in Dubby's office, on top of her cabinets. Notice her Degas ballerina print on the wall.

Below: notice the swag hooks supporting the speakers in the dining room and kitchen. Christmas cards line the door to the front foyer.

Thanks to fiberglassmonkey for doing the high-altitude work, the soldering, and many other assorted and sundry project tasks.
