I always buy the gallon container as a minimum quantity, but that is more than needed for just one pair of speakers. I also always use a brush, but I've used rollers before and it's just fine. Either way, the results are the same. The texture isn't created by the roller or brush - As it cures, it will harden with the characteristic rough texture no matter how you've applied it.

I always apply several coats. I put on one coat and let sit for a day or sometimes longer. When fully dry, I apply the next coat. So this is a long process for me.

Do have plenty of ventilation. It's more important with this finish than anything else I've used. Even if you apply the stuff in a completely open area outdoors, it will still get to you. It's potent stuff.
