My co-ax will be louder then anything else you can get. If I wanted some normal speakers like the jl or alpine it would probably take 6-8 of them to do what 1 of my 8" will do. There is no amount of normal speakers (jl,alpine,ect.) that will out do 4 of my 12" because of space taken up and wave propagation. Let me know if you need any information.

12" coax? What is the point? Loud...who cares. Sound quality is where it's at.
12" sub/s with a smaller coax or components is where its at.

HLCD or horn loaded compression driver is loud, but not what you want in the cabin of your boat.
First, it is more of a full range PA speaker, and fits the wakeboard tower idea perfect.
The speaker is extremely directional, channeling most of the sound exactly where it is pointed, this will make an in cockpit install very challenging to say the least.
A horn is only effective over a three octave range, sound quality up close with suffer. These have better sound quality than a traditional PA speaker or horn, because they have mid bass, however the upper frequencies of a horn are not ideal for true audiophile quality sound.
Bottom line, if you want loud go with a HLCD, nothing is louder at full range. Extremely loud. Ear bleeding sound
A high end speaker like the JL 7.7 will have superior sound quality, much like a quality speaker should. However it will be less than have as effecient at being loud vs an HLCD.
My friend has 4 of the JL 7.7 in a black thunder, the components not the co-ax, semi sealed free air application running soundstream reference 4.920 and a kicker 30 band preamp EQ. You would not know he doesn't have a sub, the bass is tight. Also the in cockpit sound is studio quality. All around the best stereo I have heard in a boat as far as sound quality goes.
