Speaker hookup in house

[jonb1190]

My friend and I are planning to buy a 400w peavy pr12. We are buying the speaker used so it's only the speaker, nothing else. What else do we need to play music from our phone - preferebaly Bluetooth but not a necessity - as far as an amp and receiver or whatever and how does all this get powered?? Appreciate the help!

You will need an amp of about 400w to drive the speaker. Could be more. They don't say how much rms power the speaker can handle or the efficiency. You can connect the phone directly or connect a bluetooth receiver to it.
Since you are playing a single mono speaker it would be good if there were a mono switch on the amp. Or you could use one of these
