Music in a series truck.

[cedryck]

I've had good luck in my Series 3 with a Bose Soundlink wireless unit. It produces good sound in the truck and can be set in the dash while driving; take it with you when you are done. Also has good battery-life, Bose claims 8-9 hours on a charge.

Thanks, I will look into that.

I use a Big Jambox. Plenty loud and good sound quality.

You can also take it with you when you arrive at your destination!

Which are illegal to use while driving in most states.

I've never really understood that. Deaf people can drive. People in fire trucks and most government trucks wear earphones. Many people drive in cars with 1.21 gigawatt stereo systems that you can hear from a block away with their windows closed.

Anyway, I built an 'L' shaped shelf that sits on the front and side lip of where the roof is bolted to the sides and windscreen top.It holds the radio and a speaker at each end plus a CB radio and clock.

I no longer have the original image but you can see the shelf in this collage:

Totally doable.

We put a slim powered sub under the front seat (Soundstream USB-8A 8-Inch Powered Subwoofer Slim Enclosure)

Bought two of these Versa-pods (http://www.amazon.com/Select-Increme...rds=versa+pods)

Couple 4" speakers

And A Kicker 40PXIBT502 2 Channel Portable Bluetooth Amplifier (amplifier hidden behind dash panel and controller within arms reach.

Sounds great and you can hear it with the top off (when you come to a stop the bass is a bit more prominent).

I'm super happy with it and it's basically invisible.
