the problem with crossing mids in the 150-200 range is that you leave a hole in the sound from 80-150 or 200hz. There are alot of drums that play in that range, thus you are missing parts of the...

I think the top 2 marine speakers right now are Wet Sounds and JL Audio.....the JL is typically a little smoother and the Wetsounds is a little harsher to my ear, but that loud tweeter is what you...

I would do XS Power batteries.....I've been extremely pleased with them. You also shouldn't need more than 2 batteries with that setup if you do XS XP3000's.

MB Quart is a shell of what they used to be. I'd stick with the JL stuff. Which amp are you running? Those 7.7's like power so if you're getting 150/channel it would be good, but of it's 150 split...

By the way, they took about $12K off my 2015 Platinum F250, so sales prices was low $50's. I think if you're looking at $50K for a 1/2 ton a diesel should be within reach.

Just my opinion, get a diesel. I towed for 6 years with a 1/2 ton, first with a 2008 F150 Crew Cab with a Roush supercharger, then with a 2013 Ecoboost F150. As far as power and stopping, either one...

I like headroom in my stereos because music is not linear and tuned correctly more power is never a bad thing. Just like when buying a boat, most of us buy the boat with the biggest motor we can...

I like good clean sound and I also like bass. You will get double the output to your ear by doubling the wattage to the sub, so my answer is yes you need the extra power. My current truck has the JL...

I don't think you'll be happy with the 500/3 on the sub, 180 watts just won't get it moving very well. If it were me I'd go with the 800/8 for the cockpit and cabin speakers and a 600/1 for the sub,...

Competition is good in any industry. These motors also have 5 year warranties. I'd guess the supercharged motor should compete speed wise with the Ilmor MV8. Both small blocks with similar power. I'd...

If you use a Wetsounds SD amp, you need a spare stereo only battery per amp or you will kill your boat batteries on a regular basis. They are great amps, but extremely power hungry.

Outerlimits 29SV is supposed to run right at 100 with a 600/Bravo XR setup. I would assume with a big power twin turbo setup and a stout drive it should easily hit the number you're shooting for....

Hydraulic steering would definitely be a must on that boat.....really surprised it doesn't have it. Those motors couldn't have been inexpensive, would've made sense to upgrade that at the same time....
