I am buying a new house and finally decided which rooms I would need
the speakers in. I want 6 pairs in total. 3 pair for the 1st floor and 3 for the 2nd floor of which 1 pair in-wall and 5 in-ceiling. I want to drive them through my two 2 computers that I have on each floor. That means I will have each computer drive 3 pair. I am also running an additional CAT 5 cable for the keypad from the receiver to the Vol. Control. I talked to about the configuration in one of the local shop and he suggested that I can have my computer connected to the receiver through an coaxial wire and adapter. Then receiver will connected to the Speaker selector box and that will connect to the Volume Control and connects to the speaker. Does this sound right?
Now I have to buy Speakers, Receiver Speaker selector box and volume control.
First thing first..how to pick good speakers and receiver?
My budget is $700 for all the speakers. Any recommendation??? Please
advise.
Also where should I buy it from????
I went to the local stores and seems like they seem to be expensive
there. Heard, one do a lot better on eBay. Is it correct? Are there any
other online stores where it's cheap and at the same time, reliable?
Now what Receiver and speaker selector box should I go with? How much will it cost?
Also, where can I buy the volume control and key pads?
Please help me..
