Hi,
I was thinking of building some stereo full-range pods using FaitalPro 3" Full range NEO, 15-25w Class D single channel full range amplifier boards, and LiPo battery packs. Upstream would be the run of the mill Bluetooth receiver with some form of DSP whether dedicated board or low-power PC with Linux based software DSP. I have a PartsExpress/Dayton 4x8 as well as MiniDSP C-8x12 but frankly the lower-cost Dayton is preferred for this application. It has 8x RCA preout so something that was able to accept 8x RCA and associate those channels with 8x wireless endpoints, Bluetooth or otherwise, bundled with respective receivers OR able to be configured with commodity amplifier+bluetooth receiver board, is what I am imagining the solution to be in a product form.
My questions: What concern should be placed on Bluetooth spec for hardware. Support for 5.2 just as well for this application as latest 5.3?
Clock skew? Will extended listening sessions result in time alignment drift?
Anyone have recommendation for combined functionality of 1x 15-50w Class D full range quality amp board with ability to receive signal? Is there a different radio medium to use for the pre-out to amplifier signal for each individual speaker? How would I associate the transmitter and receiver for individual channels is there a multiplexer or other type of unit that I should look for ie the type of system used for wireless mics. c
I looked for commercial offerings to get ideas, damn they are expensive. Alpine's on Amazon -- they could have at least made the rocks look a bit nicer! These are some common, bulk landscape rock template! haha. I'm sure the 3" Neo's will sound so much better, I love them but they are treated paper. Was thinking some Scotchgarde on a fabric speaker cloth grille would be fine for resisting mild exposure to elements/moisture. I digress - mostly concerned about the topology and distribution of signal. Thanks for any input.
