A:Answer Ours is above our fireplace with no cords showing and we love it. You will need to have the box somewhere nearby though - ours is in a cabinet next to the fireplace. We ran wires through the wall from the cabinet to the back of the set. There was room for us to do this without much work at all, but you may have to drill horizontally through studs depending on how your fireplace, cabinet, and wall are constructed.
