Complete Noob needs Help


First, let me thank you in advance for taking the time to read this and offer feedback.

Ok...let me clarify that I am a car audio freak and have been doing custom SQ installs for years. However, I have been doing it for so long I can't even think about Home audio. In fact my brain just shuts off?

So please help me out. I want to build a center channel and two bookshelf speakers using some left over drivers, tweets and cross overs I have from past car builds.

I have a set of Focal Utopia 165W (see specs) http://www.precisioncarsound.co.nz/focalutopia.htm

And a set of focal Polyglass v2 (see specs) http://www.focalaustralia.com.au/Pol...pecs/165V2.pdf

So the questions should start with...should I do this? or just buy new drivers

And if I do make a center chanel, should I do a MTTM design or just use one tweet?
Can I use the supplied crossovers or should I build my own? (they can be bi wired and bi amped)

And what about box design?

Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions, or recommendations would be more than helpfull.

I just want to get these speakers out of the garage and doing something.

Thanks,
Ryan
