[TR] One approach to intsalling loudspeakers in a TR

[Brian Jones]

On occasion, I want to be able to listen to some decent music while  
I'm pootling around in my TR4. I've tried various combinations of  
speakers in plastic speaker cases, designed for surface-mounting in  
cars but I placed behind the seats, to small wooden (chipboard)  
speaker boxes on the 'diff' shelf, and speakers mounted under the  
dash. Nothing proved satisfactory and all were totally inadequate  
above even modest speeds. I noticed at the VTR convention that many  
TR drivers are struggling with similarly unsatisfactory approaches.

I wanted something better.  I wanted something that met these criteria:

to maintain the integrity of the vehicle
to conceal the speaker installation
to produce acceptable fidelity
to permit easy removal from the vehicle
I have uploaded a file describing my solution (as a .doc, and as an  
HTML page), if anyone who would like to roll along to a bit of  
Coltraine or Ella. It should give you some ideas in finding your own  
solution.
