DIY Uber Headphones

[Do_ 10+ year member]

I took some completely blown Infinity 5 1/4" speakers out of my Toyota Corolla about a month ago. The cone was next to gone. So they sat for a while until I got around to playing with them. I found that 3M Clear duct tape makes a fine replacement cone for the little speakers! lol Anyhow I got the brainy idea to make a gigantic set of headphones out of them. I tried hooking them up to the left and right of a JVC Boom box I had and by George it worked and it was loud. Then I took an old broken pair of headphones and zip tied through one of the screw holes on the speakers. Presto, Headphones. They weigh a lot and are quite difficult to wear lol but with some effort you can wear them and... stand still. Any movement knocks them off because they don't want to move with you. Anyhow I finally put the grills off the replacement speakers I put in the Corolla (They didn't fit with the factory rear deck boxes) to protect my ears from the sharp bits of the tweeters and it was complete! I just know everyone is so interested and wants pictures so here:
