The national unembloyment bureau of Sweden has sent me to 'Erikshjälpen' (a second hand shop supporting starving children around the world). That's educated, much-experienced people are treated in Sweden ...

Well I've found in the store: a) toilet chair in decent condition b) speakers, worst possible quality in mint condition (Haiwa 125W PMPO SolidState).
I got the crazy idea of marrying the speakers with the ceramic throne and see if this short horn would make any noise.

I've not joking, though it may seem a bit obnoxious to use a toilet chair for a spekaer. Remember an article in a British HiFi-mag some 15 years ago with a similar idea.

And yet I am dead serious!

I know it won't look nice with a pair of ceramic thrones in a living room, but I am most interested to know HOW the result will be.

A flush beats a full house

May this project be "flush" with success!

One of the local plumbers uses the advertising phrase "A Flush beats a Full House", if you catch my drift... :o

The bad thing is that the throne is standing at my "work" (where I am "working". I have to find a way to rig the chair, the speaker and some kind of stuff for playing music.
The speaker chassis is an ultra-cheap paper-coned speaker I screwed out of a box. Should have saved the baffel as the speaker a bit to small.

I can take some photos and show how I am thinking ....
