I'm looking for some kind of conduit that would run on the upper wall near the ceiling and would look nice (as nice as such a thing could be I guess) I just don't know what to look for online. something that would contain "romex" would do. I think running regular conduit would look like horse-poop!:)

tnx,
 
I haven't seen the episode of ATOH yet it is on the DVR, the product I linked to does say low voltage. I think ATOH had one that was OK for line voltage too. Not sure though. I looked on their web page but could only find products from TOH not ATOH.
 
In my home theater I had bunches of cables and wires I needed to run around the room for the projector and speakers. I wanted a wire race way I could access any time to add or replace cables as needed. All my equipment was located in one tall stacked built in. I made my own raceway all made from regular lumber yard moldings and trim strips that I put up one piece at a time building out from the wall. it is open at the top. My ceiling in the room is flat black and I painted the raceway to match the ceiling. The last thing I added was a rope light and it adds a nice effect as a up light.

Here is a sketch of kind of what I built. This was my original plan but I simplified it a little.

At my old house I did a crown almost like this in the kitchen I didn’t want the same old building center crown everyone else had. That one I didn’t need any wires so I just used trim pieces to make a crown. The more shadow lines the better.
