I call projects like that either science projects or art projects, and they all share these characteristics:
*the doer doesn't know what he's doing at the start
*there's no way to tell how long it's going to take
*there's no way to tell how much it's going to cost
We see these often with custom one-off speakers, and the guys who show up here maybe two per year asking about how to, say, regulate the air flow squeaking out of a balloon so as to control a Sony TV. Well, not that, exactly, but just as hare-brained.

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
