Just saying hi

scottym · 2nd March 2011, 03:02 AM

Hi everyone, I was helping a friend with a carpentry project today who is an avid home theater enthusiast and he showed me some speaker plans he had gotten off of this site so I decided to check it out. It is really very impressive and I can't wait to dig into it. Mostly I am interested in building some enclosures and setting up a modest sound system for a ballroom/dance studio. i have a lot of old gear I can adapt but need a cd player and perhaps an MP3. If anyone has any ideas along these lines please email me.

Some DVD players - like my Oppo 980H - have a USB socket on the front, so it can play audio (and video) files (incl MP3) from a flash drive or hard drive. Also it has remote-controlled volume, so it wouldn't necessarily need a pre-amp...

Have not looked at any plans in detail yet. I just need an enclosure type to mount on the wall with a 3 way system. I already have the speakers in a cabinet but the cabinet is not suitable for the ballroom because it will take up floor space.

Thanks for the tip on the DVD player. Usually most studios use a player that has variable pitch but the feature of plugging a flash drive in intrigues me.

Thanks, you two for the reply.
