I can well understand your penchant for listening to the bookport while relaxing in the hot tub. But a set of good sounding speakers within good earshot will be much easier on the bookport and the wallet. (grin). I don't have a hot tub; but I do have a large bathtub and I have a small but good sounding set of stereo speakers on a safe shelf in the bathroom. I've listened to many hours of great material with those speakers and the BP while soaking in there. It works! Hope your BP continues to work well after its baptism! Lois Goodine.
