Hanging files. Done. Enjoy.

How'd you know? :D One day, if I really work at it, I may even reach this level of awesomeness:

I still have my old Realistic tape player, but I'm not interested in using tapes. It does have a radio, and it's not terrible; but it's not great. There were some good boom boxes, but they're going to be expensive. I do have one I really like; I think it's an Aiwa, but it's in storage. I'd...

Bam. That is precisely what they are. Used and cheap? Sure. It'll make noise and fill a room, and it's still not a bad choice for a garage; about as good as a decent compact boom box. New at $600-$700? Ha! :lol:

Not if your services aren't running. I agree, though. I don't like listening to radio in general, but some people cannot seem to live without it. They like those five songs. :D That said, it's frustrating that it's not included, and hilarious that BOSE of all companies is hanging on. I do...

Overall build quality of Bose products tends to be good. Their old Acoustimass stuff didn't age well, but before and after their initial "cube push" quality has been competitive. Don't discount your ears, though. They're better than you think; even damaged. Going from the big guns to modern...

Someone did ask about hi/fi solutions under $200.

The Promedias are great for that. They work with pretty much anything. The amp is in the sub. In a garage, that's nice. You can use the speakers by themselves if you want to, or certainly connect them to a receiver, or all of it. You'd just need a separate FM receiver; but that's all you'd...

My last post has been edited quite a bit. If you read it before I posted this, might want to check again.

The real headache here is the damned radio, of all things. It's all going Bluetooth in "table top" systems, and there's rarely a tuner. :lol: EDIT: For radio, one solution is to pick up a receiver with Bluetooth output, and use any of the solutions, such as those mentioned below, or any...

If one can be had for fifty bucks or so, it becomes more interesting. Beyond that it's just a marketing premium. A wave radio is just a complicated way to make crappy drivers fill a room. It doesn't make them any more accurate; but if it's cheap enough... Hey. Could be worse.

I had no idea they were expensive. :lol: Yeah, the container fence is certainly a possibility. Hell, I can get double the length by cutting out the walls, and leave some intact for storage. That's probably the solution, in the end. Those aren't expensive. Well, they weren't. Probably cost...

I'm going to build it wherever I have to. I kind of like the idea of buying a good chunk of the top of a mountain in WV; but I'll put it wherever. Doesn't matter to me, really; so long as I've got resources on the property.

I could go that way. It's not like it's got to stop a tank, but I don't want anyone cutting through it easily. My own suggestion would be very easy to climb, but I figured people would be unlikely to climb it. Maybe corrugated steel common for barn roofing. I'm just interested in a cheap...

In a while I intend to build a house. Not sure where, but it'll be made of shipping containers. I'm set on that, and I even found one I like. I'm tired of being bothered. I want to be left alone, and I'm going to build a wall around it to get the point across. It took me a while to figure...

All I see is ***. :lol: Wait... That's the bottom of a ladder. Where am I, again?

It's ancient technology with good marketing used to help a small full-range driver behave a little more properly. No, it's not as good as something with larger, separate drivers; and that includes much cheaper devices. It's small for it's output, and that's the calling card. Is it decent...

No, it implies it's time for you to **** or get off the pot. There are no more choices, you have heard them all and you are being deliberately obtuse. Make the smart move or don't; as in, flip a coin.

When it comes to a battery-powered anything, landing yourself with a solid platform with standardized parts is the way to go. Milwaukee, Makita, Stihl, whoever. Doesn't matter. They can't give up making those batteries for quite some time; and after that, the aftermarket will keep it going...

You don't have to buy a bunch of new tools. One point of picking a platform is the ability to add stuff over time, and the fact that the batteries are standardized, and so damned popular they'll not go out of production. That is a huge problem with seasonal units from Lowes and such. So, for...
