I am producing an installation that features multi-channel audio in a
museum space.The cavity that I have for installing the speakers into is
only 3" deep and I have had trouble finding home speakers that can fit
in this cavity, and thus I have been thinking about using small auto
speakers in custom boxes.

I am not after super high-quality sound but I would like it to sound
good in the mid and high ranges. The whole setup might work as follows:

1 computer with multi-channel audio card puts out 8 unbalanced signals
to...

4 cheap stereo ampifiers, which power...

2x small 4" 4ohm auto speakers per channel on each amplifier, for a
total of...

8 channels and 16 speakers of multi-channel audio.

Any suggestions on how to do this better while not spending tons of $$$
on multichannel pro amps? Thanks for any advice you have!
