I've got a PC in my cellar with HDMI and USB cables running up to the living room for that clean look. Ethernet cable running through the walls of the flat (including to PC in cellar, wi-fi access point in kitchen, hi-fi and projector in kitchen). Projector also has a HDMI cable going to it from the PC in the cellar as well as an analog out to the kitchen hi-fi.
I've also got a hi-fi in the living room which has speaker cables running to the speakers in the cellar and a DAC in the living room next to the hi-fi with an optical out running to the kitchen hi-fi.
What this means is I can have proper multi room audio throughout the flat and a huge variety of inputs (I think every single input is used on the kitchen and maybe also the living room hi-fis).
My advice would be plan it - properly - but also if you're erring about running a particular cable cables are really cheap but taking up floorboards/plasterboard isn't. You'll never regret running a cable and not using it whereas not running a cable...

buying a flat soon. Will have PC in box room/cupboard. Doing new flooring so have opportunity to run some cables.
At a minimum I want an ethernet cable in the box room. Maybe also an ethernet cable attached to the plug socket near the TV?
Anyone done anything like this before and have advice>?
