I'm finally making some progress on this install. Been busy with other stuff. I've only got 2 flush panels to make and it'll be done and ready for the water. I powered it up last night and tuned it in for the first time. All I can say is WOW! The 4 Wet Sounds XS-650's are new, the 4 JL 10W0's are new, and the Kenwood sub amp are new. The boat originally had 10 Kenwood 6.5's, 2 4-channel kenwood Excelon amps, and 1 10" Excelon woofer. I also added 2 Stinger SP1500D sealed batteries.

Here's what I ended up with:

*1 4-channel, bridged to 2-channel mono powering the tower speakers
*1 4-channel: 2 channels are powering the 4 6.5's in the cockpit at 2 ohm stereo, and the other 2 channels are powering the 2 6.5's in the bow.
*1 Mono Kenwood Excelon amp powering 4 JL10W0-8's at 2 ohm mono.

Also added a Wet Sounds WS-420 eq/pre-amp
All of this is on the stock Kenwood Marine headunit. I only kept this because the helm station inserts are built around 1 remote, and another remote is on the transom.

There aren't any pics of the 2 10's under the helm, but they're in there and I still need to cut out a flush panel for them. Under the console where the amps are, I'll have a cover for the batteries that'll conceal them, and the second woofer box will sit on top of that. With this set-up I'll gain almost all of the storage space back under that console. Big enough for a full-size cooler.

I'll post updates once it's all done. Hopefully that'll be later this week.






Big thanks to Billy at TN Tige for the Wet Sounds and TNT for the carpet that evidently no one in Paducah will carry

Sweet system,, When you finish yours I'll bring mine over.

What are you, f*cking deaf??? Looks nice dude, can't wait to here it!

I think we will hear him before we see'em

How many batteries do you have in there now


now you just need to add a "stripper pole" to that ski tower and your set

Only 2 batteries. They're in the console instead of the bilge, which is really handy. I'll work on that stripper pole

HUH

Hey jonyb, Robby here (met with you last year down at the quarry) I think the first time we will be down this year might be the poker run.

I'll try to post some pics when it is back together....a little motor tuneup for the poker run......oohhhh sorry I mean MAINTENANCE for the wife HA HA HA catch you'll soon!!!!!

Hey Robby, just keep us posted when you do come down here. Maybe we'll hang out a little longer this time or we'll all find a place together.
