Is the board sufficient to reproduce music in a way that it doesn't sound like a cheap transistorradio? I'm interested because the solution I've tried for my SB doesn't work to my satisfaction: I also used plywood to make little soundboxes to put on my parceltray. They are slightly bigger than the diameter of the speakers. The speakers are directed slantly towards driver and passenger. I thought this way I can get them out while camping and do not have to cut holes in the door or rear sidepanels. But the sound they produce is too thin. Probably because the soundboxes are too small. I think they only work well with a (closed) soundbox like a trunk or door. Other solutions should at least have enough cubical space. Any other thoughts? Richard Visser '67 SB The Hague, Holland
