I'd been thinking of making something like this. The system I'd have is an empeg in docking bay, a small 1-DIN amplifier and a Gel-Cel motorcycle battery. Two 6x9's on either side in a sloping enclosure to provide a bit more than the usual compact speaker arrangement. I might even make the speakers detatchable so you can set it up somewhere and make a decent stereo out of it. You might be able to replace the full motorcycle battery with a smaller (but still sizeable) sealed 12V rechargable battery (similar to the type used in alarm systems).

Of course, you'd have to use a 12V charger occasionally and it would become luggable rather than portable. But I can cope with that; basically carry it in the car to where I want it, unload it, plug the empeg in and away I go.

This is still a pipe dream though...

Save the whales. Feed the hungry. Free the mallocs.
