Off-Grid Party Sound Systems

Step 8Just do it now!!

Just do it now!!
ok there's an easy way and a hard way for everything.  If you want the easy way, here it is:

read the previous steps.  get an efficient speaker (or 2), get an effiicient amp, a battery, and plug them together.  done!!

(my article about a simple rear-rack mounted bike party sound system shows an example of the 'do it now' option)

the steps after this show how to make an Active 12V speaker - a speaker with integrated battery-powered amp.  This allows slightly improved efficiency, lower weight and a more convenient package, but it is also more complex to build.
