The Z5500/Z2300 are discontinued methinks.

That is the replacement for the 5500.

I haven't heard those in person, but I've no doubt they are about the same as the 5500 quality wise. Loud, and good, but not great.

I'm referring to your first link.

So as not to completely crap on the OP's thread, my suggestion is to get a good receiver and a solid set of bookshelves. Run a straight 2.0 set up for a while as you save money. Then add a sub for a 2.1 system. Later, you can add a center channel (3.1) and finally a set of towers and move the bookshelves to the rear to complete a 5.1 system.

i also am 16 years old with atleast a 300 dollar budget and that to me is top dollar. Damn i will just use some damn car speakers powersupplys and a RF amp

Thats right:) im running 3 psus and one amp on 215s. Gotta love car audio at home :D

For the price you pay to get decent quality PSUs, you may as well have bought a receiver.

I have A stereo amplifier. Nad c355bee im very happy with it. Im running 2 pairs of speakers on it. Cerwin vega xls 12 and cerwin vega v 12. And the psus are from random pcs ive thrown:P

I stand behind my statement.

Your amplifier is looking for power at 13.8 - 14.4. This is where most are rated. Running an amplifier on a PSU is going to have the amplifier acting like its always in a state of low voltage. I seriously, seriously doubt a computer PSU is putting out 13.8 - 14.4 volts. All the looking online I've done has put it in the high 11s to the low 12s. As I'm sure you're already aware, these are numbers that we try to avoid on this forum when we are setting up charging systems in our cars.

The kind of PSU you would need to (properly) set up car audio in home is like this one.

And when you can buy receivers like this one for the same money, gain features that make way more sense in the home audio environment, and reduce the fire hazard, well, the choice is obvious unless you're looking for a project.

yea. im aware.. those psus i have. run at 12 volt.. but different amps, i have blue neon in the amp.. lol, when its turned up high. the neon flashes :D. so i need more amps:D. well gta find a pc powersupply from a pc;). and maybe i need a power block or two to organize the cables..

Also, maybe look into a sound bar setup???
