BAZOOKA Tube ?
 

Does any one have any experience with using a Bazooka Tube sub woofer in their boat? Any pro's or con's? Do they sound pretty good or not? This is the one I am considering. The black automotive ones are a little cheaper. I suspect the white which is stated marine may have very minimal differences. I am thinking it would fit perfectly in one of my side storage areas where I store fenders now. Thanks for the advice!

I used the Black Bazookas tubes on mine and they sound much bettter then I thought they would with good thump!

I couldn't bring myself to cutting any holes for subs so I went the tube route and am very happy with the results. No issues being non-marine after 2 seasons!

If you want hard rap type thump at very loud volumes look elsewhere. Bazookas work quite well for some really decent bass.
Recommended!

put four of em in and pump the thump


just make sure you keep a screwdriver handy to tighten all the screws that are gonna loosen up,,,,,,,,,,

if there crossed over correctly and some good juice is pumped to them they will hit hard

Thanks for the feedback.

ZP'd - It looks like you went with the Bazooka Tube with out the integrated Amp.

Any one with a recommendation with or with out amp?

I'm thinking of getting one with the 200 watt built in amp. Then will use a JL Audio 4x75w amp to power 4 Alpine 6.5 speakers. Nothing crazy just want clean sound with some bass.

If I where buying I'd get the external amp, more control and if you want to up grade you can use it for something else also the marine isn't worth the extra $$ unless you want white

I did 2 8" subs in mine in the same type of location as you want to use and it sounds great just make sure you give them enough clean power, I would of done 10's if I had it to do over so now Im trying to find a place for these 12"s I have laying around

I would go with truck style boxes and 2 10" inch subs

boxes bottom depth is less than the tube

I have the 10" amplified marine Bazooka tube and it hits decent. I was actually expecting a bit more though, but that could be because I had 2 15" subs in my truck in high school.

I wanted the ability to have a bit more control, thus the 8ohm tubes bridged off the Alpine 220 amp.
The only goal of my system I had was to be able to hear it well at speed with a little thump and they more then do that.

My shop is factory direct with Bazooka and we stock many models of Bazooka tubes. Call Mike or I when you are ready to order and we will get you a deal.
