Hello everyone,
My name is james and I am just breaking into the home speaker market, I grew up with both of my grandparents having soundstudios in their basements, but they are long gone now unfortunately. For the past number of years I have been into car stereos, never had a place where I could do my own system. I have been reading intensely and my head is lost. For a living I build hot rods and custom cars, i really need a hobby that has nothing to do with this, I have alittle spare time but usually I work 6am-9pm at nite. So i currently renovated my basement and would like to try my hand at building my own towers and powered sub.
This is where it gets sketchy. I have tons of new car stereo stuff, components and subs..... i would like to build my own towers with these for now. I do not have the money to throw at speakers when I have these around, that is what the wife says. I was wondering if someone could help me out some. I would be willing to pay someone to help design my pair or towers and subbox and crossovers if \I need them. I know this is aswking alot for my first post but I will try. I am not new to building things so I am not scared of anything, if I can build a $100,000 car, I can do this.
This is what I have for speakers that I would like to use, a 3 way component system from HERTZ, either the Hertz 10" subs, but I really want to use the 12" DVC 2ohm kicker subs, and for the powered sub I want to use the PPI 15" piston woofer.
The boxes can be complex, does not matter to me, i have awhile to do this. I want to run these towers off of something like a rotel.... along those line. I think I can pick something up used for a decent price.

This is everything that I could find for the data on the speakers. If someone decides to help he out, a great big THANKYOU!!!!!!! And if not, that is fine also. Also if you want to be paid let me know, I have paypal.
