Speaker under rear seat
#11
Dont you guys end up missing the storage space in your anchor & fender locker? There's enough room in the cockpit wall for a 12" free air sub right next to the front passengers feet. You could also put one on the drivers side, but one west sounds FA 12 driven by 600 watts RMS was well more than enough for me. I have 2 more pairs of 8 inch wet sounds coaxials and adding a 3rd pair in the spring.

I thought about that, but on my boat, the transom shower spicket is on the passenger side between the front bolster and back seat. So, I think the simplest thing to do, in my case, is the free air subs under the seat. I was a little concerned that the free air subs would not work well, but from the feed back, it seems they work well. Obviously a boxed sub would work best, but I was never big stereo guru. Thank you tho for the input.

I have 2 feee air under back seat soon don’t lose storage, and also 1 on each side in front of bolster, powered properly they sound great! Many guys don’t power subsubs properly to get the sound right. I prefer JL

Yes but im talking about the footwell area next to the feet of the front passengers. You can fit a full 12 inch free air in there, easy peasy just drill the hole and screw it in. The wet sounds 12 hits like a sledge hammer if driven with sufficient power. I started with a 10 inch and was underwhelmed, now with the 12 im very happy.

I`m with Tank, I didn`t want stuff bouncing around under the bench taking out the speakers , I boxed my subs and added battery , anchor and lines still fit just fine, don`t feel like I lost that much room

Running 4 Memphis Audio 12s Free Air under my seat its like an enclosure. Still have my ropes, anchor and miscellaneous items under there. Two 1000watt Fosgate Amps are driving them and honestly it’s way too much🤣 Running a bass controller to keep it tuned and 8 Memphis 6.5s with two more 600 watt Fosgate amps powering them. All this and still looking for a reasonably priced 38TG😁

Mine is all bluave from waves and wheels, installed by MD offshore performance.. the small tweeter looking coneish things are a midrange that is fricking amazing.. the sound and bass is crazy and I'm not a stereo guy at all...
