Can you merge an Aluminess material with a Gobi design?

Wow- you're not kidding. It'd been a while since I shopped, but this beats the Kicker that I'd previously looked at. Thanks for the reference!

Nice setup! That tuffy box has so much potential for switch mounts, build-outs, etc. I've given up on locally stored media, and never intend to tune into an over-air/satellite source. Anyone have experience with the bluetooth receivers that get mounted out of sight? Seems like that and an...
