Swordlordboy1234 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Posted July 8, 2014 I know general is not a dumping ground, I just couldn't find a spot for this one. So my gf and I are going to start a whole entertainment system for our living room. A 40+ inch tv! a xbox 360 (or xbox 1) and a whole living room stereo set up. I really wanted a bangin home stereo. Like 4 beefy little 8's on about 1k in a 4th order or something. My question is, car audio stuff in homes? Obviously the amps would need a converter... Which is why I'm thinking home audio amplifiers. But I'm considering like PA speakers and tweeters so it's easily loud and the bass set up I mentioned before. Anyways... Thoughts?

Swordlordboy1234 Posted July 8, 2014 Author Report Posted July 8, 2014 15x15? TV and enclosure would be about 8 feet away.

I want it to be full and loud before you start to pressurize, so I figured low 130's would be accurate you should watch my vids on my youtube. i metered my 18 when i had it in the house. the room it is in is 16 by 20. think of it this way, could your neighbors hear a 135 if its in your car? youll be pissing your neighbors off with anything over 110 db. they will hear the thump. that can get annoying. i switched to a self powered 8 inch and it gets plenty loud and full for the room Buyer/Seller Feedback Thread: http://www.stevemead...5015-bump4life/ MB C220 153 Trunk Car Build Log: http://www.stevemead...d/#entry1840136 MB C280 Ipad Dash SQ Build Log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/194484-bump4lifes-new-benz-tony-c-relay-kit-pictures-ce-electric-audison-front-stage-installed/ My SPL Log: http://www.stevemead...__fromsearch__1 BMW M340 xDrive Stock, for now.

They also play their music with the doors of their cars open and their little cheap 10's and drink beers all night together keeping us awake. But we want it that loud for us, incase its mid day and no ones home and say we wanna clean, just turn it up and clean the house.
