Wood/Metal shop need good sound advice for diy. Another please help

Posted by Mattretterwright@gmail.com (A) on January 20, 2017 at 13:16:31

Greetings , Im in process of moving into a 2,000 square foot warehouse and desperately need some good sound. I'm planning some build outs and remods etc including lighting , and Acoustic Treatment. Acoustic will probably be a combo of homemade flat panels with insulation and or towels or the like and some eBay Specials. Thinking I'll run a row or two along walls and a suspended array of vertically organized sorta deal thing's my first time. SO, I Have very little money to invest and will upgrade over time but to start with stereo, my idea/plan is to use my computer ,5 year old large IMac and a stereo reciever which I do not yet have, buy speakers and whatever other components needed, and build all of the speaker boxes.any recommendations on power/reciever ? OK so , I have a flat ceiling at 20 feet off the deck, layout is rectangular roughly 30 feet wide 70 feet long with a small office restroom area with 8' ceiling and 10x20 area next to a 12x12 metal roll up door. I'll likely build a second story office on top of this area, and an additional free standing mezzanine type structure either in the back or in line with office area, fwiw. Can anyone offer a little info and point me in a good direction? I really appreciate good sound, however I don't know much about building a custom setup . Keep in mind, My budget is as little as possible. While hoping to get some decent clean sound. At least not horrible. Is this feasible? I work with my hands, design build anything nearly, wood and metal. I grew up in a cabinet shop , and would love to create some super radical speaker boxes. I've heard about the 70amp speakers, volts? The many small ceiling speakers. I'm thinking 3 way speakers or maybe some mids and highs in arrays. Considering making 8 or so ? Idk. Heeelp
