speakers

Car stereo broken? Those 20 dollar speakers you bought for your computer will do just fine!

This must've taken some chutzpah to make.

The transformer in submitter onecardshortof52's Logitech speakers was humming, but they couldn't be fixed without destroying the shell. So, after taking them apart, splicing some wires, replacing the power source, and giving them some stylish new resonance chambers (paper coffee cups), onecard now has a functioning set of desktop speakers.

BRB, going out to buy a trumpet to replace my broken iHome.

At just the right frequency, these babies will shoot across your floor and and up in your neighbor's apartment. ~Not-So-Handy Andy

This is what it felt like when the world upgraded from mono.

From submitter azgli: The speaker system at a friend's party was missing a proprietary 13-wire cable between the main unit and the speaker controller. This was my solution to the problem - 13 individual wires insulated with Scotch tape! More Scotch tape kept them from shorting when the sub started rattling things around.

He's really putting the miles on those portable speakers. ~Not-So-Handy Andy

I think the boom-to-box ratio might be a little bit off, actually.
