The max watt rating is the capacity of the speaker, but the RMS is what you should try to match right. Would it be resonable to get a 500watt rms speaker for a 150 watt max amp? I think the 150watt rating on the amp is RMS. Does anyone know. From your suggestions, it sounds like four speakers...

Would running each 8ohm pair of speakers in parallel to each channel be a good idea? That would be a total of four speakers on the amp and I was thinking of adding a separete sub with built in amp. I can just run that off from the RCA output right. This amp will give me 75watts of power at 4ohm...

The amplifier has those 1/4" headphone style outputs on it. They are not RCA's. Do you know if and where they might sell wall plates with these connections?

I talked to him some more to clarify his purpose. He wants a few in-wall speakers that will sound decent with an amplifier he already has. The room will have kids in it during the weekdays so he doesn't want any equipment getting in the way. He just wants to plug in his amplifier to the wall to...

I have a friend who loves to sing and is adding a room to his house. The room is the size of a two car garage. He really likes to sing. He preforms with a few groups around here. He wants a clear, deep sound. He asked me to set something up before the drywall goes up. Should I just run...

If I install the mud plates should the wall plates be touching the drywall? If they will be touching the drywall will it allow it to move?

How do you mount the wall plate to the switch and outlet boxes on a wall that has resilient channel? Do you leave them sticking out 1/4 inch and put acoustic sealant behind and/or it? Can you use RC-1 to hang 1/2" drywall on the ceiling? Would you have to reverse the last channel on one end...

Would it be as effective if you do drive the big screws into the studs but cut a hole around the screw and put some sound acoustic cocking arond it?

Is it less expensive to install resilient channel instead of mineral fiber or fiberglass insulation taking into account the amount of work put into it?

We're building an addition to our house and the contractor only insulates the outside walls so it passes inspection. I wanted to insulate the interior walls and floor to help reduce room to room noise. I don't want to install resilient channels because they would charge us more for the drywall...

I want to run counduit so I can upgrade my wires later on or if I want to run different outputs to a location. My sisters do not want to be wired for ethernet now but maybe later they can use it with a flat screen t.v. Some people install a put tape to run their wires later on but I feel like...

Does anyone know what's usually the maximum size hole you can drill in a load barring wall and for a non load bearing wall? I was wondering what's an economical conduit to run for structured wireing. I saw a blue plastic conduit at the home depot that was about $30 per 100ft for 3/4" and...

Where do you usually buy all your wireing and connectors from? I'm going to wire up a new addition to our house and I was wondering if I should buy all my stuff from Home Depot or an on-line store. Is Parts Express a good choice. Is it logical to buy a 25lb roll of cat5e cable considering...

We're building a 2 story 5room/3bath addition to our house and I was wondering what ideas you guys might have to wire up this house. I'm plannig on installing some inwall speakers to use whenever we have a party in our house, but I'm not sure were to mount them. Can I mount them on the ceiling...

If you install conduit then can you run regular speaker wire or does it still have to be CL3 rated? Our contractor gave me a few days to finish the electrical and datacom. I'm almost done with all the 120v electrical and I've purchased a media center to be intalled in a hallway. I was...
