Re: [microsound] wireless outdoor speakers

["info@xxxxxxxxx" <failsafedefault@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

no expertise here but an idea at least....
a car stereo only needs a car battery to power it,  - you can get some 
pretty kicking volume out of them.

if you have any "friends" who might wanna help you out with say a brick 
and a window if you know what i mean (i don't condone this method in any 
way) but you could save a bit of cash that way, otherwise Costco for a 
new car battery and the junkyard for an amp/radio?

the wireless side woudl simply need to be some kinda cheap 
transmitter... i think you can get boards, schema, and components from 
maplin.

i'd say get creative with the housing,  a trash can could make a good 
disguise  especially if you intend to freak people out in public spaces....

good luck !
