RE: Bathroom Volume control

[Frost Neil <Neil.Frost@xxxxxxx>]

I've not installed theses yet, but the quality seems very robust.

The speaker connections are like those you would find on car stereo
speakers.

The frequency range is 65 - 20,000Hz which I guess will be OK for bathroom = /
kitchen type listening.

I'll take some pictures soon and post them up...... Probably when the
bathroom is finished, a couple of before and after photos....... Including<= BR> the speakers.

I have tried with an old computer speaker amp but its just too puny.

Thanks for posting the link to the speakers.  Id seen this a while bac= k 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 Serve= r
upstairs

I ran the output from the soundcard to a sony amp (=A310 from a second hand=
shop)

Speaker wire to an in-wall volume control from B-tech (=A336 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

Just been looking at Paul Gordon's  bathroom again as I plan to do som= ething
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<= BR> card output or use an amp?
The speakers are 80w, could I use the amp from an old powered pc speaker? <= BR>
TIA

Neil
