    I give my wife a hard time about being a Libra because she can't make up her mind because her scales keep teetering. Gemini's have 2 sides :D:D:D;)

    I built a small wooden shelf with a handle that I just move my AVR from the pool area to the shed when I'm done with it.

    Unhooking the speakers and having to handle it each time is a pain, but something I don't mind doing.

    I've also used a small plastic tote to house it but the whole moisture thing becomes a problem eventually when left outside in our weather.

    Enclosures will also cause a problem with a remote. Nothing worse than floating 30 ft away when a good song comes on and the remote won't move the volume dial.

    I just use cheap AVR's and a cd player, if and when they go, they go.

    I like Tony's idea about that shelf in the dining area cept it's hard to make volume adjustments if everyone is outside.

    But be warned, I don't think you'll get that hellaish thunder thump of bass outside that you get on the inside >:) .
    If you do, let me know how you did that..

    Dan are you a Libra?

    Don't think so... June 6 bday so whatever that is

    Gemini, just about the same

    So I can blame it all on that? Can't WAIT to tell my wife that's why I am the way I am... it's the DAMN STARS FAULTS!

    Yep those stars you'll be seeing once she gives you the warp factor 9 across the ol'noggin
