Also for those interested in good audio powered by 12 volts, do a search
on Ebay for 'equalizer booster' and you will find several high powered,
12 volt, equalizers. Most can be directly driven with a speaker output
from a receiver, and if you want to drive them from a high impedance
line input it is usually a simple matter to locate and remove the input
swamping resistor. They do take a lot of 12 volt power, but it is one
inexpensive solution to the power amplifier. Don''t forget to fuse the
speaker leads too - 100 watts per channel is a lot of power (even if it
is peak power) and can melt speaker voice coils quickly.

buy a good bookshelf speaker and small hifi amp.
I got a set of little hifi speakers from a place that sold
used hifi gear cheap, hooked them up to an old hifi
amplifier, and into the computer sound card for games.
I used to play flying games a long time ago....
The sound was fantastic, not like what computer speakers
typically do, but 50 real watts per channel and GOOD speakers.
When you crashed or ran into something, you FELT it.
