ok. im moving out of my house and into a seperate house on our property, and i have a single 15in RD Audio Elite. so i was thinkin about a home theater setup since i cant seem to get ride of it. what would i need in terms of speakers, tweeters, amps, and enclosure??
Start yourself off with a good entry level receiver. Onkyo, Yamaha, Denon, ect... Only you know your budget so that's your call. Even a $100 Pioneer will get you going. Most receivers today are capable of surround so just make sure it has a sub out line for your RD. Next is the amp for your sub. Passive or powered will dictate the amp, passive using a seperate external amp and powered using a plate amp. Again, your budget will determine your options. The sub out line from the receiver connects to the sub amp line in with seperate gain and low pass settings. Tune your enclosure a bit lower than car audio, 30hz and below. Off the bat expect this to set you back at least 5-6 bills (entry level). And don't forget surround speakers.
hmm. ill definitly look into it. i just dont know if i wanna go through that trouble wen i can get sometime outta the box that will satisfy my needs. not wantin to spend more than 350 for everything.
yo chase, my brother's computer sound system came with a ported 10" sub and its only rated like 250 watts and it gets rediculously loud, shakes the house, i think youd be better off just sellin the rd at a loss and buyin a htib
far as a reciever.. depends on how harc0re your into it..
i just bought the onkyo 7.1 .. it comes with a mic that measures each speaker to your seating areas.. then sets your staging giving those measurements..
since you don't have a preamped sub build yourself a downfire box tuned low.. really low
then find a cheap reciever or home amp .. i run a cheap pioneer reciever as a slave for two 15"s downfiring in a 14cu.ft box for my HT .. tuned to 26hz
oh.. i also use Klipsche cubes.. those things sound super nice
but if you want to build your own towers hit me up.. ive got two Dayton 7" mids with a nice set of Dayton 1" silk dome tweets.. sel lyour RD and buy chaunceys Dayton sub
