The speakers I use would not be able to be seen by anyone, unless they really looked close. I use a day bag that fits over the seat frame, it has a mesh pocket on each side the speakers fit just perfectly into. They are not that easy to see unless you really look for them. I already tested this out since we have been discussing this. I put the MP3 player in the bag and the speakers in the pockets, put the bag on the seat frame and sat on the bike. I am easily able to reach back and hit the power switch and even adjust the volume if I need to. Of course I have yet to try this while riding, so far I have only tested this in a controlled environment, inside my house with the bike in a trainer frame I use as a work stand when I have to do maintenance on the bike.
