Grilling and listening to music...

[perferd]

Do you guys listen to music while grilling out on your deck or patio? If you do what do you use?

We are looking for a new radio/stereo that we can play wirelessly and can be used around the house as well. Right now we carry around this little cheap ipod dock that kinda sucks but its what we got lol...

[CDN Smoker]

In my option only. ITunes is the best product out there for music. With that in mind I would like to set my wife up with something like this.

We have friends with this setup and the sound out of that little box is simply amazing.

Yeah I have been looking at the soundlink II as well mainly cause its bluetooth and not much out there is. I have also looked at the dr dre beatbox and jawbone big jambox...

just recently saw some precision acoustics bluetooth capable bookshelf speakers that might work too...

I am old school, got some JBL contractor series speakers hard wired to the patio hooked up to a Sherwood Receiver that is hooked up to my Direct TV for the Sirius channels.........

Same kinda thing here. Yamaha outdoor speakers to an Onkyo rec. in the house, and tune the home theater to XM music channels. I guess it depends on how interactive you want it to be from the grill area. For me, I usually pick a channel that fits the mood or the crowd, and leave on as background music.

It is "The Pulse", "Lithium", or "High Country" for me Smoke. What are your Sirius favorites?

I have a Bose speaker system with .2 battery packs that play for 5 hours each, you can use it plugged in too. I use it at the beach. Got it at Sams, $400 something avd worth every pennt. Pam

If you love Pandora you might want to try Iheart Radio too. I was a loyal Pandora listener for years until a friend turned me on to Iheart and now that is all I listen to. It's set up the same as Pandora with a little better selection in my opinion and you can also listen to local radio stations through their sight. So even when I'm traveling I never miss a Cardinals game or listening to local radio.

Looking more for something portable so I can take it all over the house backyard garage and front yard...We dont have much of a entertainment system I like small and sleek so we have a TV PS3 Sat box and bose cinemate. Other then that we have a $39 ipod doc and thats it in the whole house lol...

Y'all probably won't be surprised but I have a Panasonic record player with two speakers that I take out and play 33RPM records on.  I have over a hundred of 'em. Can get some good deals at estate sales and flea markets. Mainly 60's music, classic country and western,  some old timey hymns, and some walzes.  Now to me that is as 'bout of high tech as I am right now.
I would like to have the great system Pam had at the Gathering last year.  It's amazing what that little system she has does.  Unbelievable.  Dee

I will check this out today.  I can't figure out how to listen to giants games on my phone.  I like the Iheart radio idea.  thanks for the tip.

If I am looking to stay mello, I will play "Escape" or "Sinatra" and if Sagebrush Smoochy is over "Roadhouse" or "Honkeytonk Tavern"
