G+_Bill Paulmenn Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Installing speakers, a small amp, a blue tooth adapter and a tablet mount for my bathroom. It will be used to watch video podcasts while we use the powder room. Before I run the speaker wires abs hide the amp under the sink does any of the know it all s have other ideas on my build list?

G+_Jason Perry Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Looks like a great project. I would take this set-up any day over one of the pre-made set-ups. Do you have access above the bathroom to run the wires? My only other thought is where is the power coming from for the amp and the tablet?

G+_Ben Reese Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Sounds like a fun project! Not sure how expensive it would get or the level of difficulty, but this looks like a fun add: http://hothardware.com/news/google-engineer-builds-android-powered-and-google-now-capable-smart-mirror-for-his-bathroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Bill Paulmenn Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 I can run the chase in the wall and I put an outlet under the vanity. Speakers were $30, amp was $20 and the Bluetooth Belk in was $12? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Jason Perry Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 I am pretty sure TekThing recently did an episode where they talked about properly sizing speaker amps, if you are interested. It is either that or an episode led me to an article on it. The just of what I got of it is most Amazon amps advertise the peak wattage, compared to speakers that are advertised in RMS which is essentially an average wattage.
