 Cooler Boom Box
I guess this is where I put this... I want to build a nice moderately loud portable radio. Thought about getting a piece of sheet cooler and putting a radio and amp inside. And drilling out 2 big holes for two marine speakers... Has anyone built one of these? Lookin for ideas, pointers, possible expense and titties

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
Good idea on the roller cooler, ill probably have a cigarette lighter receptacle plug in come out of mine. For now anyway until I learn a lesson when my motor won't crank

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
Mine hooks straight to the battery on the motor. It lasts for hours without starting the motor. Has 4 polk audio marine speakers in it and a cd player with bluetooth in it. Works pretty well. Cb5331 built mine for me. Did a hell of a job on it and sounds good. I even put it on the back of my welding bed and jam out on the pipeline

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
Sounds good Caddo, yes I like the mobility of it too I could bring it anywhere. Will definitely be building it in a roller cooler like lacours. What brand is your radio head? Blue tooth sounds convenient

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
I ordered 4 pyle 9x6 marine speakers and that ipod/aux ready amp pyle has. Gonna go with that for now with no radio head unit. Hope a single battery will power that for a while, just have to see. Will probably only use 3 of the speakers depending on how much room I got. Hope all that isn't a pyle of sheet!

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
if you looking to buy one look up tigertunes on FB. He makes some sweet setups and will do whatever you want. He has even made a Yeti ice chest radio for some guy.

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
I cant figure out what everyone makes them in the shit ass coolers.
All the big spenders around here and I never see any in a Yeti or K2.

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
I'll make mine in a shit ass cooler because what's the point of putting it in a nice one. I'm more of a DIY person I'll be damaged if I buy one, and on top of that specially a yeti.. I don't want that image. However I did buy a yeti to keep my beer and harvested animals cool for a while

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
Checked out tiger tunes to get some ideas. It would be cool if he could get a logo of an elephant trampling a tiger on a rolling cooler . Call it ROLLing TIDE

 Re: Cooler Boom Box
X2 ^. I still feel like a dumb ass for buying a yeti for general purpose. But they came out with that blue so I broke. I'll be proud of my shit ass cooler radio, that I made.
