USB Speakers
ChadTower:
It's 5v but almost no amps. Amps are what drive a speaker. And be careful if you push them about burning out your USB controller - most of them really aren't made to push current heavy devices, just data. Sure, they can do it, but if you've got a cheap on board controller the question is how long will it last.
Decent powered PC speakers are easy to get free.

Thanks for the link vertygo. They look like they would be a breeze to mount in a cab, even a small bartop.
