Actually, thinking about it, a few years ago a friend made a sub which
was aesthetically acceptable to his distaff side by modelling it as an
Ottoman. You could even use it as a seat. You can get a lot of volume
in with minimal wifely shrieking by being sneaky.



Crafty.....

Or even have a (superfluous) chimney built and use that...??

:-)


Now that was popular back in the 60s/70s with real chimneys when
everyone was switching over to central heating. Come to think of it, I
could do that myself - didn't think of it :-(



If one's usual brilliance is only *highlighted* by the occasional slip like
that, it put's me up there with Max Planck - the number of ****-ups I'm
managing to perpetrate these days...... :-)

One interesting thing I just discovered and only a tiny bit *bloggy* (I
should be back down the garage making a mess, instead of on this bloody
computer) - the Pie Eater PJ I recently got with its own (really quite good,
4 speaker 'subbed') sound system...

will play CDs when 'switched off', but put an MP3 disk in and it'll play
that also but puts the bloody lamp on so you can read the track titles!!

Clever innit? :-)
