I have been on the lookout for a large Bluetooth portable speaker for my 280SL that would not clash with the classic styling of the pagoda.
I found the House of Marley – Get Together. Besides the strange name it is a good looking and good sound speaker system for the car. The front of the Get Together is a solid bamboo that looks similar to the wood trim in the pagoda. The box weighs 6 lbs / 2.7 kg and is covered in a cloth material that will keep it from sliding around on the back bench. The battery will last up to 8 hours and it has 16 Watts coming out of 4 drivers.
Best part is it sounds great, even at 65mph/100kph with the windows open.
The price is not bad at $200 (US) list, you can get one for around $170.

I know quite a few people who recommend the Minirigs unit(s). And the Bose ones

An increasing number of options ford decent sound without cutting and wires

I really like the round body speakers. They fit nicely into cup holders. But when they sit in the back bench they tend to roll around.

Not Vintage. JBL fantastic in the car!
