you could do that but I bet 2 of these will be louder http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18804%26item%3D5751501899 %26 or 4 of these will be very nice http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=18803%26item%3D5751216642 %26 I would go both of those over those Orion's. |
