Need sound outside of house - what to get?

[techigirl78]

I have an enclosed 12'x12' porch that only has an exterior entrance and about a 50'x80' backyard next to it. Here's what I what like to have:

• Listen to music on back porch - Attach IPod / Listen to Radio
• Hear background music while I garden in backyard - possibly add exterior speakers in future
• Don't want to go inside house to change music
• Room doesn't have best acoustics - 10 windows and tiled floor
• Not looking to spend tons of money
• WiFi connectivity to porch

What should I get? I've thought about those iPod docking stations, but I'm not sure if I should consider something else. Thoughts?

The only Ipod station worth anything is the KEF Picoforte IMO.

But I think you can do better. What's your budget?

Buy a used AVR and go nuts.
