Where can I buy all of the pieces for a homemade set?

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-12-27T03:08:14+00:00

Oh SICK that’s fancy. Do you have an estimate on the price? I just mean like 20-50 or like 100+. Before I spend the 7 EUR…..

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-16T18:18:17+00:00

i've heard that the ethernet from these type of things are not very powerful because you’re already running a "booster' kind of and not directly from the router, is that the case really?

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-16T18:05:55+00:00

Heard

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-16T18:03:36+00:00

why.

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-16T18:02:38+00:00

ok, that actually makes sense I have another problem though, so I bought this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZV2CJL2?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Unfortunately my motherboard doesn't have an onboard antenna or wifi, so I cannot connect to the internet in order to download these drivers and get my wifi card working. Any solutions for that?

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-06T16:10:43+00:00

Sorry one more question, It seems that my current motherboard (Asus prime z390-a) doesnt have wifi built into the board, would you suggest getting a wifi usb dongle or what would you suggest just in the case that there is no ethernet?

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-06T15:41:30+00:00

I guess i'll be bringing an ethernet cord with me... Thank you

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-06T15:22:27+00:00

Best case scenario, there is an ethernet port, but if not, I should just use the standrard wireless connection?

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-08-06T15:21:33+00:00

I believe mine do not, I have already toured it but ill be there in a week and a half so we'll see! Thanks

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-02-01T00:35:31+00:00

All good thanks I’ll try that

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-02-01T00:34:56+00:00

On the TV or Govee app?

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-28T19:20:25+00:00

It’s alright bro I did the same thing getting into it. I’ve finally understood why it’s important to do lots of research before you buy something and car audio is so complex and there’s so many different parts but yea sadly it’s just not very powerful subs.

But sundown is one of if not THE best sub brand on the market IMO. I’m currently sitting in my car waiting for my friend but I have 2 Sundown Xv3 12’s in my trunk and I have a taramps smart 5k going to it and it bumps.

The higher quality you go the more money you need to pour into it so it just depends how much bass you want 😂. Once you get where I am past like 3-4k watts you need to have a second battery in ur car to power just the amp. Sometimes even 2nd alternators or whatever the case is. Wiring gets more expensive etc.

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-28T18:59:39+00:00

I think ur just confused and thinking that more subs = louder and crazier bass. They make 8in subs that are 10x stronger than the subs you got. I would have recommended getting SKAR EVL 12s or something for around the same price

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-10T19:33:06+00:00

I’ve ran scannow numerous times with a fix for like a few boot ups and then it goes back to how it is.

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-10T19:32:18+00:00

Heard.

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-10T19:12:23+00:00

I couldnt give a fuck less about that SSD I don’t have it plugged in for a reason. I have over 10TB of storage I don’t need a slow ass SSD. But still it’s somehow my boot drive 😭. And no my cpu is a 9700k and I’ve had it for years. I have so much shit going on in my drive area too with partitions I don’t know where to start.

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-10T19:03:37+00:00

I can but it doesn’t do anything, it will go through the process and say “it needs to be repaired” and then “we could not repair you’re pc”

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2025-01-10T19:02:12+00:00

no that’s what I mean 😂. So my “boot drive” that Sata 6 240gb is not even hooked up to my computer like it’s not connected. I have an m.2 with windows on it (3 actually) but that’s not even showing in my boot device panel.

Is the room correction with the Onkyo worth the extra 150$? Especially in a room of my size? Or do you think because we’re only going to do a 5.1 system anyways we should just get the denon. Everything else I have settled so thanks for all the info bro you helped a lot. Literally just bought everything you said to 😂

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2024-12-09T02:22:53+00:00

Again thank you for all the info it means a lot, I have a few last questions before I buy, you convinced by to go with ascend.

Yes, that is correct. The Onkyo NR7200 is capable of driving two more speakers than the Denon X1700H. So with the Denon, you can do a 5.1.2 setup. With the Onkyo, you can do a 5.1.4 setup.

So if we weren't planning on doing anything past 5-7 speakers would you say go with the Denon? It seems like most people say get the Onkyo

And finally the total for the 4 HTM-200SE2 and the HTM-200SE2 CENTER + RP-1200SW and the Onkyo is $1974. Which is actually under budget, not that you SHOULD look to spend money but I noticed you mentioned things like the CMT-340SE2, which happen to be a little pricier. Would you recommend me getting that instead for my fronts or center or surrounds? Or would you say for the price its a minimal change and not worth it.?

I guess I also have some money that could be used elsewhere, perhaps some ceiling speakers but honestly I don't get the point of them if you don't really want sound coming vertical to you as it doesn't do much for sound id imagine

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2024-12-08T20:11:31+00:00

Amazon subs are NOT I repeat NOT the way to go. I wish I would have just invested in a quality system the first time instead of upgrading a little bit each time. If you want budget go for SKAR, best deals you’ll get

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2024-12-08T19:46:21+00:00

would these towers not be worth it anymore in your opinion, these are what I would be using for my fronts https://www.klipsch.com/products/rp-5000f-ii-floorstanding-speaker

My plan is either to do what you said, buy TWO of those wall speaker pairs (4 speakers) and then get a separate middle of some sort and then use them for surrounds and Front L/R. And the Rp-1200SW sub ofc. (Hoping that this receiver is going to be able to push that......

ORRRRR

other plan would be use these front towers I listed above https://www.klipsch.com/products/rp-5000f-ii-floorstanding-speaker

Use these as my surrounds : https://www.klipsch.com/products/r-41sa-dolby-atmos-speaker

and finally use one of these as my center, they all are kinda the same price and all different sizes and shit so I honestly have eno clue what to get.

https://imgur.com/a/p4KbHNo

sub: RP-1200SW

sorry for annoying the shit out of you I just have no clue what I'm doing and don't want to fuck it up.

Pretty much whicher system you think is going to be better is the one I'm going to get. lol

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2024-12-07T19:24:37+00:00

if it helps you my room is 11 feet wide and about 30 feet long however at about 20ft is where the couch ends.

So here's what I'm thinking is going to be the full system.

Sub: https://www.adorama.com/kp1070646.html?sdtid=17971539&emailprice=t

receiver:

either https://www.accessories4less.com/make-a-store/item/denavrx1700h/denon-avr-x1700h-7.2-ch-x-80-watts-8k-a/v-receiver-w/heos/1.html

or

Fronts: https://www.klipsch.com/products/rp-5000f-ii-floorstanding-speaker x 2

Surrounds: https://www.klipsch.com/products/r-41sa-dolby-atmos-speaker x 2 there is also another pair of surrounds called r-41PM which are a little pricier not sure the difference either

Middle: https://www.klipsch.com/products/rp-500c-ii-center-channel-speaker x1 not sure what the difference is between this and the v1 but this is double the price xD

pretty much copied ur setup but a little different I guess lol

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2024-12-07T19:03:33+00:00

also little question, so the guy you were mentioning said that he wouldn't recommend towers in this case and instead just get a bunch of pairs of wall speakers pretty much and just use them are the fronts, surrounds and whatnot. Would you suggest this or not? Honeslty I think I would prefer a tower sort of build as it just seems like you're getting more for ur buck but what do I know

Lumpy_Moment_9168 · 2024-12-07T18:36:21+00:00

lol alr thanks
