Wanting to switch up to an Atmos system, but will need more channels and a new processor.
Moved into a new place a couple years ago. I have been struggling with speaker wire placement and concealment. I have a couple door thresholds to go over and the normal stuff. I don't really want to pull the crown molding, or the baseboards either. I have hardwood floors and carpet runners don't work for me either. Its kind of an industrial look house and have considered some small 4" wire trays, but that prob won't look home appropriate. Wondering what others have done. I could run them under the floor, but don't really want to drill into the floors either. Its really a 3 sided room, so all the wires need to run around the left wall and back as well.
Another interesting issue with an ultra short throw projector is equipment under the screen needs to be minimized, or you will block the view.
not a current pic below, but somewhat of an idea. The project is like 9 inches off the floor with a 8 foot table I made to hold the components. But speaker wires are a pain for me. I should go look at some AV forums, but have not made this a proirity lately.

Need more pictures of your room. But an option is to run the cabling from the front wall up the ceiling and down the back wall (if there is one). It'll require cutting open the drywall but I think this is probably the best option. When I had my basement finished and the A/V room done, I had conduit put in as I wanted to pick and run the rear speaker cabling later. I was able to pull the cabling through with pull strings that the contractor left in the conduit. This was my only option apart from doing some sloppy solution running cabling along the baseboards and then across the floor in spots which are not ideal. The floor in my basement and this room is engineered hardwood on top of a concrete slab.
Here are some older pics of the back part of the room. You can see in the first pic where the cabling is coming out from the upper right corner to the speaker.
