Hi Lee:

I'm using a Motorola Amplified Spkr... probably from a 1980's mobile phone. 
7W-10W and MORE audio that you'll EVER want. It's designed for 
communications, so might not be too hi-fi.

I'm currently working on designing a replacement amp for anothr Motorola 
Amp. Spkr. in which the amp went out to lunch. Gonna try using a TDA2003 
(at least 5W @ 14CDV). Will advise when the project is completed as it 
appears several others are also looking for a small 12VDC spkr. amp.
