First off this seems like a really good forum. So much so, I realize I'm really over my head. I'm going to have to go to the library and get some books on this stuff.
Anyways here is the plan. My dad needs a center channel build that is no taller than 5" or deeper than 8", width can be as long as 49". It needs to go between a flatscreen and an fireplace mantle. He is really good at woodworking, but I need to do the electronics bit. We can't seem to find a commercially built one to suit the space requirements that isn't garbage. The budget is at $200.
He doesn't even have a center channel right now, and is just going to run this with some bookshelf speakers.
Ideally we want four 4" drivers and two 1" tweeters.
I found these
How should the sequence of these be? WTWWTW? Or do I really need two tweeters? Also ported or sealed?
The speakers are all 8 ohm. I've done car stereos and whatnot, but I cannot figure out how to wire all the speakers into a crossover and one terminal and still have the proper independence. Is it even possible?
I found this crossover, will this work for this application?
