New Stereo gear???

[EricU]

Soooo, I have a new project boat that I going to install a complete new stereo.

What I am thinking of is;


Reuse my 12” JL Audio W6 sub in it’s existing sealed box and build it in the helm support (possible ported) after the season is over.
Reuse my Pro Mariner 20 on-board charger

Head Unit:

Kenwood KMR-700U Head Unit
Kenwood KCA-RC55MR wired remote
Sirius adapter

Tower Speakers;

Two sets (4 total) Wet Sounds Icon8s
Black
Fixed Clamp
LED Ring – RGB
Translucent Grills

In-Boats:

Three sets (6 total) Wet Sounds XS-650-RGB
LED Rings-RGB


Wet Sounds WS-420sq zone control
(1)LED controller – The new one that plugs in-line with the LFE RCA (Is that all I need?)

Amps;

Towers – Kicker KXM400.2 Should I go to the KXM400.4? I cant find the specs on these new Kicker marine amps. Will the KXM400.4 give me more power at the towers? (Phil?? Mike?? Anyone??)
Inboats and Sub – Kicker KXM800.5 (The W6 is wired for a 2 ohm load)

For 2 pair of the Icons, stick with the 2 chnl KXM400.2. It will deliver 200W rms x 2 @ 2 ohm, so a net of 100W rms to each Icon. The 4 chnl KXM400.4 will deliver 50W rms x 4 @ 4 ohm. That would be only 50W to each Icon. Now, a pair of KXM400.4's in 2 chnl mode would be 200W rms to each Icon.

Got it!, and Mike again thanks for all the help.

No go hit the lake, I gotta work on my backyard and I don't usually go out on the holiday weekends anyway!!

Cant wait to get this system in.

By the way, Kicker told my stereo shop guy that the amps wont be shipping for a few weeks!!!! NO BUENO!!

Phil? Phil?? PHIL!!! I need some forum help/strings here!
