the recent purchase of new livingroom furniture has put my B&W's on the endangered lis, you see, my better half has told me "they don't go" with the decor...
so, i get the B&W's for tunes upstairs while i finish my 3 way active crossed towers (just finished assembling John Pomann's active crossover kit, now starting the testing before plugging into my 3 amps...)
SO, i'm looking for advice on the following:
1) what's the general rule regarding picking a (mid/bass) driver based on it's Qts for inwall use? (i assume it will be "free air" or technically within a poorly sealed box 4" deep, 16" wide and 96" tall enclosure
2) My A/V receiver does have "small speaker" settings, but i think i'll also but a high-pass filter at a safe point (~80hz) to keep this puppies from bottoming out on louder DVD passages... any input on that?
3) It's a Sony ES A/V receiver with ~100 watts x 5, any recommendations on a 2 way or MTM set with a final 8 ohm impedence you think i should look into? (my sub takes over below 60hz)
thanks for reading...
