Outdoor Entertainment System

[Ramble On]

Started looking into an outdoor entertainment system & wanted to know what the best set-ups some of you have or have seen located in the basement. Don't want to go overboard and don't lose too much storage space, but I do want something for decent size group can enjoy. Considering a flat panel TV that can be stored inside. Not sure what is better a small home stereo receiver running AC power or a car stereo running DC (we do a lot of dry camping). Small portable speakers is a no-brainer. Any ideas, suggestions, photo's are welcomed. Budget is moderate we're weekend warriors.

What year coach do you have and do you have smartbeds?

2001 40 ft FDS and no to the Smart Beds. Really have a hard time deciding between the Auto sound system versus the in-home stereo receiver and speakers!

How about a nice battery/AC portable radio system that you can plug your I-Pod into. I have one that I use with DW's Sirius radio.
