Bag Speakers?

[Garret H]

I just use my phone to play my tunes when I'm playing by myself. My bag has a mesh pocket on the outside so I can hear the music perfectly well -- I slip my phone in, turn on the MP3's and let 'er rip.

My friend has this:http://www.amazon.com/X-Mini-II-Capsule-Speaker-Black/dp/B001UEBN42/ref=pd_cp_e_1

It sounds amazing. Really loud and clear (with bass!) and rechargable. I have a smaller imitation of his, that cost $11 shipped on amazon. It's nice but not as nice as the X-Mini-II.

My electronics stay protected in one of these: http://www.amazon.com/HoMedics-HMDX-GO-Homedics-Speaker-OTG/dp/B001AS2WBG
I have the newer model with volume control on the outside.

The Hamburger! My friend uses that also and it is surprisingly good. It doesn't crank but it seems fine for the group.

I use one of these in my bag. It will take a beating, and works on two AAA batteries for a while.

seriously? if you need music, just use headphones. i find it pretty irritating when i'm constantly subjected to someone else's incredibly tinny sounding, treble-only portable speakers.

I agree with this.

I don't want to hear your music any more than people want to see me playing a round in assless chaps.

I only use my speaker when I am playing with myself. It really sets the mood. If there is more than myself involved I don't use it. The music becomes distracting.

I guess I don't get it. I like the peace and quiet when I am out playing.

Yeah, me too.I like to listen to music LOUD in my truck, but not on the course. And, i've come across a few players with little speakers on their bags, and it sounds like listening to an album over the phone. Ever have a friend call you and say "Dude, listen to this tune!!"

Altec Lansing Orbit portable mp3 speaker. Tons of bass for a small speaker, batteries last forever in it, and you control the volume through your auxillery device. It even comes with a case.

as much as i enjoy quiet on the course, and think i play much better when im not distracted by music, others are also entitled to do as they wish. It doesn't bother me, just gotta tune it out

Why do people insist on trolling on this thread? I get it. Nobody likes people who play loud obnoxious music on the course. I play a lot of secluded courses, and, for me, music makes everything better. If you want to rant about these darn kids and their music, please keep your ramblings in your head.

Let me guess, you're probably listening to Marvin Gaye or Isaac Hayes?

 

[Smokin' Joe]

I have 2 sets of speakers and an amp pushing 1 of the sets. Never a dull moment on my card.

 

[kenjiac]

I won't rant. I don't mind when people enjoy their music. If i'm playing in a tournament and someone has music with them, I ask for them to turn it off every time it's my turn to throw. I respect them and I expect them to respect me when it's my turn.

I have these: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/iHome+-+iHome+Mini+Speakers+for+Apple%26%23174%3B+iPod%26%23174%3B+and+Most+MP3+Players+-+Black/1144355.p?skuId=1144355&id=1218224799097#tabbed-customerreviews
Lithium-ion usb charged. Charge lasts a long time. They collapse and expand for bass. The bottoms are magnetized so you can stick them together. Very crisp, clear sound. After going through 3 sets of $10 Kohl's bought ipod speakers, I broke down and spent $50 for some speakers worth a damn. They are worth it though.

I play with a couple people that use these, and I always enjoy having some tunes. They always ask if anybody minds, and I've yet to hear anybody say they do.

I guess it depends on the music. Jam bands aren't my thing, but some Phish, or DMB, or Derek Trucks are just great background music.

Someone asking a question while I'm teeing off can be really distracting, but background tunes don't bug me at all.

Just don't crank it. It needs to be background music, not a party.
