Public adress literally on a bike with 1005

Dear folks,
on my search for mobile music, I came to this solution, which is still a design study. Bass bin will have nearly double volume, speakers are supposed to be modern pa-speakers. Comments, propositions and advice are appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you are a rocker you could put the pedal to the metal.

The horn will overpower that tiny LF cab.

What is the purpose of this setup ? As OG has said that tiny LF speaker will hardly be heard over the HF horn.. It looks like a 10" or a 12" woofer.That horn needs to have dual 15" woofers to sound tonally even between HF and LF, IMHO. YMMV however.

It's obviously a political soap box platform.

Gonna be impossible to pedal against all that sound.

I think you need to consider Doppler-Effect compensation at greater than walking speed.

you could play "ride of the valkyrie" and recreate that scene from apocalipse now.

That?s why I asked you- It was the only box flying around with a speaker, that fitted the bike. Volume of the final box will be nearly double with preferably two speakers. A2 will be a bit too big so please any other recommendations.
The only purpose is to have fun on a bike together with friends ( 100 - 200 ). We have other soundbikes, but want a final solution. The 1005 are a temporarily solution for my home and so I thought it might be a good idea to use them for convincing sound.
By the way I dont have an ipod.
But i won?t be afraid to use modern equipment.
Thanx in advance
