Thoughts on new speakers and amps? I'm really trying to do this on a budget if possible but I would like like to have a decent system too. Wetsounds? JL?

Budget and JL really don't go together, but you get what you pay for. Buy once, cry once, go with JL.

I had JL on my last boat. Loved it. My buddy put Kicker speakers on his JL amps...sounds awesome. I think I may be putting Kicker on my Donzi with JL amps. Lots more bang for the buck.

How big of a system are you putting together? Mb quart has some great stuff for reasonable money.

I went to a show this past week and had 2 JL guys push Wetsound. That took me by surprise. I am going to end up with a bit of a mix on my ski boat with Wetsound low and Kicker up top. I have had good luck with Kicker stuff in the past,and intended on a Kicker home run. However, free Wetsound speakers are hard to pass up. Before you ask, a friend won some Wetsound stuff and ended up not using it. Thanks Friend!
