Another stereo upgrade post

[John Mcpartland]

Finally finished project 1 for this spring

11 speakers and 2 amps if you count the soundbar as 2

Solid!!

How do you like the sound? What did you have before stereo wise?

I noticed you went with Rockford towers...any reason why those over others?

I too looked at those but ultimately ended up with the JL M880s but heard those get loud too?

How many batteries?

I wasn't going to do towers, but I got them used for a good price so I went for it. So far it sounds awesome but the real test will be out on the water.

Just upgraded from stock, and stock batteries for now

How are you liking the soundbar? I listened to one at Crutchfield last week and liked it. I like the idea of that better than tower cans to crack my head on.

Nice job, looks good! I'm a fan of my Rockford Towers too, especially at the price.

I am very surprised how good the sound bar sounds, and how loud it can get. It is nice not worrying about hitting my head walking through the middle

Now that I've amped my sound bar directly vs having it in series with the cockpit speakers my soundbar is awesome. The only draw back now is the polk subwoofer can't keep up with the high end from the bar....so I'll either need to replace it, or get a 2nd sub! LOL

If it makes you feel any better, I said no subs till next year... I can see 2 10” IBs and another amp in my VERY near future. Hahaha

Were you able to hide the cable for the sound bar and the other 2 tower speakers? One of the complaints I’ve heard is the sound bar wire is so big, it won’t fit inside the wake tower bars and it looks horrible. I’m hoping you were able to get everything looking clean, but this picture doesn’t give me a wide enough view to see it.
