I had heard JL was coming out with digital amps, but didn't know they were on the market yet. I haven't needed anything and haven't really paid attention. Looking at the JL website, they look very similar to the PDX's. I'm sure he can't go wrong with them. JL makes high quality stuff.
Not sure about the 14.4 vs 12V rating. I have no noticeable difference in sound quality with the batteries at 12 or 14 volts. Im actually running my system with 2 PDX amps off of 1 of Interstate group 29M Deep cycles.

What is everyones thought on a 10" bazooka tube. i have a 22zx donzi and don't really have room for a box since i want to leave my cushion in the cuddy

Thats the problem in mine 4 down low and 4 in the sides,It just doesn't sound loud to me.I was thinking about changing out the MB quarts 6.5 to the JL 770's .Do you all think its worth changing out??

You guys that like the PDX and JL amps, check out the Wet Sounds Syn amps. They're made for hot environments, very efficient, small chassis', and marine grade at that.

The Syn6 is a 1000W 6-channel and can play any combo of cockpit speakers along with the subs.

Also, the WS-420 is a line-driver/pre-amp/dual-zone equalizer that can control the cockpit, cabin, and sub completely separately. This way you could turn the cabin speakers down completely, while playing the cockpit speakers and sub.

I really like the syn6. It looks like channels 5 and 6 would handle the subs. Is it possible to run 4 tens with this set up or just 2? I would really like to try this out. On the high side I would plan to run 3 sets of the xs650's and just an additional couple of tweeters. If I would be better off with two amps with the above set up be sure and let me know when you can. Thanks for emailing the other info. I'm pretty convinced in regards to the subs and 6.5's.

THe Syn6's sub channel is 600W. You could power 3 or 4 of the XS-10FA's with the Syn6. They're a dual 2 or dual 4 ohm configuration. I'd recommend 3 of the dual 4's for a 2 ohm load. You could manage to power 4 of them, but I don't think it's enough power for 4. Id go to the Syn1 for 4 subs. It'll play down to 1 ohm mono.

Extra tweeters aren't necessary. I replaced a set of Polk Momo components in a customers boat with Clarion tweeters and XS-650's. I only used the tweeters because they wanted to fill the holes with something that worked. The Polks were blown. It's honestly too much with the 4 extra tweeters. The 650's are enough, and honestly I haven't heard any speakers as bright as these. They're a true component style speaker, as the tweeter floats over teh woofer, not through it like most coaxials.

Those interstate group 29m deep cycle batteries are great huh? got 2 running my system.. i buy re-mans every 2 or 3 years.. $35 a piece.. just keep'em filled with water.. had one explode on me 2 winters ago.. took out a jl audio 250/1 with it.. ugh.. what a mess

Its been great so far. I've had it for two full seasons and never run it all the way down yet.
