Title: Message

Thanks for posting the link to the speakers.  Id seen this a while back but lost it!

 

Can you comment on the quality of the speakers?  Are they quite solid with decent connections for the speaker wire? 

 

Dont really know about taking apart powered computer speakers but this is what i did for sound to the HA (homeseer) speaker downstairs from the Server upstairs

 

I ran the output from the soundcard to a sony amp (£10 from a second hand shop)

 

Speaker wire to an in-wall volume control from B-tech (£36 and well worth it)

 

Then on to an old car speaker that had been sprayed white.

 

This works ok for announcments and music when ive put it through but i should be replacing some of this functionality with a rio receiver quite soon  : )

 

Thanks

Subject: [ukha_d] Bathroom Volume control

Just been looking at Paul Gordon's  bathroom again as I plan to do something similar, in the way of music control, in my bathroom.

 

(I already have SWMBO approval using clipsal stuff.) And have just received the ceiling speakers from Henry's (http://www.henrys.co.uk/PA/ceiling_speaker02.html)

 

I have a question (or 2) on amplification.... would you just use the sound card output or use an amp?

The speakers are 80w, could I use the amp from an old powered pc speaker?

 

TIA

 

Neil
