[QUOTE="xtremekustomz, post: 3182389, member: 569952"] Are you going to be using home speakers or car speakers? Home building is a bit different from car audio. I would say it is easier but there is really alot that goes into making it sound really good. I am going to give you a website that sells home speakers and another site that actually test them and gives you the enclosure sizes and all. I would recommend using one of these designs because they are optimized for the speakers. Alot of thought went into doing this. As for crossovers...they list the crossover parts and everything you will need. You will see that home is very complicated one you start reading everything. Anyway....here are the pages: [URL="http://www.madisound.com"]http://www.madisound.com[/URL] for the speakers [URL="http://www.zaphaudio.com/"]http://www.zaphaudio.com/[/URL] for the tests and enclosures [URL="http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=6"]http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=6[/URL] DIY Home Audio Forum Also....I would only use a set of stereo speakers if you are going to use a home receiver on car audio speakers becaues they are made to run at 8 ohms not 4 ohms [/QUOTE]
