[alfa] Interesting Radio Idea

[Benjamin Kaupp <bkaupp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So... I was down selling some extra speakers and picked up an old Denon 
2ch amplifier. Of course it doesn't work but it got me thinking... What 
would happen if I just had a trunkmount amp running to two good coaxial 
speakers (leaning toward Alpine or MBQuart)... and from the amp I just 
had a simple plug that could pull sound from, say, my PowerBook or my 
CD player or even my iPod. Then I would have an easily removed system 
that didn't take up space, was modular, didn't mess with my stock deck, 
and could be upgraded easily. Are there any technical hurdles I am 
completely ignoring? Any other problems? It's a Spider, so I don't care 
too much about the degraded sound quality that might result from losing 
4v outputs. So... is it doable to completely bypass the deck? Does this 
count as speaker level inputs? Advice, please!

TIA
