Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

Jason,
Yes, you did help. Thank you.
I left the original clarion amp in the port side closet. It drives the 6 speakers (4 6.5 polks in the cockpit and 2 6.5 clarions in the cuddy) and then I bought a 1100 watt Memphis marine amp ($$$) that drives just the Polk subs. I mounted it under the rear bench. I can adjust the bass power separate from the other speakers this way. I am very pleased with the performance.

Bowtye8,
Table came in the boat...I believe it is from the factory. It is pretty nice to have at times and then you can remove it whenever you need the room. You may be able to order it from Baja or I think you can even get different styles out of overtons.

Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

How did you wire the amp. You use the second set of RCA's off teh amp and the others went to teh closet amp for the 6.5's??
I am getting ready to mount my subs this weekend. Why didnt you space the subs father apart? What did you use to cut the circle.. SawZaw or Jig saw?

Thanks
Dennis

Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

Dennis,
Correct, I used the second set of cables that came off the head unit to go to the amp that drives the subs. And actually I mis stated the wiring on the 6.5's...the 4 in the cockpit are driven by the sub in the closet and the 2 speakers in the cuddy are direct off of the head unit. I think all the Baja factory stereos are wired this way.(my 25 OL was same)
As far as the sub location...that is where they fit for me. The amp is mounted on the same surface so that dictated the spaceing from the side. I had a friend that installs stereos for a living tell me that the spacing wouldn't make much difference in performance with the bench seat set-up.
I cut the holes with a sawzaw. not to bad. I drilled a few holes around the inside edge of the circle I marked, to relieve the cut every so often. Total install was probably 3 to 4 hours. What subs did you go with?

Good luck! Post some pics when you get it done

Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

Thanks for all the info. I hooked up a few car stereos in my day. But trying todo this right the first time :drink:

I went with Kicker CVR10. Comp VR series. They are marine ready so should stand up to the salt water environment....I hope.

Still have to purchase the 6.5's Liking the polk 6.5 series you
have.

I would like to put my amp in the same place as your . Easier wiring . Pwr right there. Just run some RCA's from the radio to the bench area. My amp in not marine ready. Older Kenwood. May get destroyed in that area. Wet etc.. from washing.

Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

Where do you store it when its not in place/upright?
Thanks.

Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

I would think it would fit in one of the closets. The pole under one of the seats. Good question

Re: Sharing the 29 OL upgrades
 

Bowtye8: How do you like that 03 29 OL? What motors? Handle chop well? 2 footers at most. I boat on freshwater lakes in TX.
