My house was built in 2006. I want to hide the cables of course, in that wall.
Can someone with experience doing this tell me what I'm likely to run into? I assume there is some insulation in there. What type of insulation?

Any tips on how to make the job easier and less messy (other than hiring it out?

Thanks,
Should be fairly easy assuming you have an outlet directly below where your tv location is planned. Most concrete block walls are stripped with 2xs so you should have 1-1/2” in there. Worst thing may be insulation. When I read the post it made me think of couch fishing with Bevis and Butthead
