here is an idea for you, and mind you, i'm sure that it's a pain in the ***, and i'm also not sure it will work but,,,,,,you could try to open up the pod assemblies and see if you can fit at least the 250 nano in there,,,,see if you can put anything else inside too, bore a couple of access holes for wiring to get to, and if the components will fit in the assembles pods, wire them up, install it in the pod, run the wires out the access holes and wire up to the rest of the system. structure will stay sound. if the stuff fits, velcro it in the pod and rock on.

i just checked a pod i have laying around and depending on your speaker of choice, you will have to remove a lot of the webbing inside the pod, but it might work. i just took a real quickee look, but maybe.

I think you are getting closer. This stuff gets easier with experience that is the nice part of not doing the "one and done" system out of the gate. When you aren't happy with how this or that is routed and you've had the outer off three dozen times, things get a little more clear. My wife was telling me the other day in the garage to get my bike done, I didn't have the heart to tell her it will never be done. Keep at it.

The smallest I've seen in person is the Arc PSM. It's about the size of a pack of cigarettes.
