I don't suppose the new Klipsch Marine audio systems coming on new MasterCrafts are commercially available yet huh? Has anyone auditioned these speakers yet?
For $5k budget you should be able to BEAT your neighbor's system, not just match it. Tons of very knowledgeable folks on this forum. (who also tend to get passionate about their preferred choices ;-)
Regarding the klipsch/mastercraft audio deal. My understanding is that this is a 5 year deal to start. Im betting that we will not see any klipsch marine on retails shelves before this initial deal. Word is, exclusiveness was the driving factor in the MC/JL divorce.
A note to the OP. I would ignore the brand banter and pricing, instead spend your focus on the best audio application as applied to your personal boat and objectives. You'll end up with a better performing system that way.
Premium. Wish I was dealing with Brian on this. I wouldn't be out 2 rev 10's.

Oh crud...blown horn or diaphragm? Hopefully they can get you fixed up.
One horn, two woofers, some prongs tore up. That's what happens when you see the Exile boat on the river.....

Its not a complicated process.
Start by contacting your selling dealer. Hopefully its a local dealer/installer. They can walk you through diagnosing the issues. If they did the install, or even not, they might invite you to bring the boat or speaker(s) by and inspect/test for you. The selling dealer will have your sales date and other info, and can be your point man on getting the required replacement parts direct form wet sounds. Unlikely you or the dealer would have to send the entire pod in, just a couple days wait for the replacement parts, whether its covered under warranty or not. All of the components are available as replacement parts. Mid-bass, compression driver, cross over and even the horn flare. No need to have a new or refurb'd pod sent after shipping yours in, just order whats needed to fix it. Even a bent terminal is easily repaired or serviced.
Yup only $550 in parts. Yay. My dealer couldn't take a speaker apart so I was on my own.

Man, for a few more $$$, you could get the XM9 on sale right now, better yet, get 2 pair! Its no REV10, but they stand behind their product. I'd contact WS corporate, that price seems way high. Since there are WS dealers on here, maybe they'll step up and help you out.
Thats an assumption that this is a warrantable failure and implying that Wet Sounds does not. Not covering out of warranty, is NOT, not standing behind a product. Also need to consider the public statement of the user.Quote:
but they (exile) stand behind their product.
On sale as in used/refurbs? Id spend less and stick with the larger speaker any day of the week.
Theres plenty of resources out there for a Wet Sounds customer to pursue if they choose. As states, starting with your selling dealer is the best first option, but not the only.
He stated his dealer was no help other than selling parts and they didn't even know how to take the speaker apart. Exile stands behind their products in warranty or even if you buy something used not from them. On sale, used/demo/refurb, still comes with a full warranty.
Knox, do you even comprehend the amount of info not being shared here in this scenario? You are drawing conclusions and making implications based on a single sided story. If Beat is not satisfied with his selling dealer's response, he needs to, if he chooses, to reach out to Wet Sounds, the dealer area sales rep or another dealer.
I understand that a lot of "dealers" work out of their garage and may or may not be technologically inclined. How do I know this? I have friends that are dealers. For one, I have never put down WS as you do Exile...2, it seems he has gone through the proper steps and has come up with $550 in parts needed to fix his speakers.
Knox, your posts are making less and less sense as this thread goes on.
Nah, you are just choosing to not see them for what they are.
Do you even own a boat? Saying you "have owned" what Brian has tells me you don't.
Taco stated his dealer didn't know how to take the speaker apart, you recommended he contact his dealer, do you even read the posts or just pick and choose what you feel like? Like I said, you be you, I'll be me. You don't like my posts or replies, don't respond. You never offer advice or participate anywhere else on this forum.
On my 4th one since 1995.Quote:

I do and ive noticed that they are sequentially numbered so you know who posted what, prior to other posts. Feel free to double check whoe posted what, in what order.Quote:

So you don't own a moomba or supra, roger that. I did look through the posts, I told him I hoped they get him fixed up, you even had issue with that. He had already said he contacted his dealer, then you came behind and said the same thing. Why don't you step up and help him, not just offer some advice on who to call and telling him parts are available, I'm sure he fully knows that. Didn't see you respond to working and selling out of garages, oh, because that's a fact. How many forums are you on doing this same thing? I'd say all of them if I was guessing.
@knox,
I saved you the time of fact checking your own statements. Here are a few threads, not posts, threads, ive contributed to in the past couple months. Im sure my sales pitches are glaring in every one.

Lol, accused of being here only to sell my wares, then questioned why I have not solicited a sale from Beat Taco? if Beat wants or needs further assistance, he will reach out to whom ever he feels he wants to reach out to either here in this thread or directly. His best actions are a local dealer, which isnt me, The manufacturer, which isnt me, or an authorized internet dealer that can trans-ship Wet Sounds product, again thats no me.
Feel free to stop by my little garage and see for yourself. A few of your fellow moomba/supra owners have. Im not going to post any pics, names or links, but anyone else following along can certainly do a quick search and find out how presumptive you are. This journey down the road of personal attacks is not going well for you. All this flap over a copied and pasted amp owners manual.
Not going well with personal attacks? I didn't realize that I attacked you by talking about dealers working out of a garage, must have hit a nerve there. I also never said to sale taco anything, the phrase I used was help him. Again, that's on you. You quoted a manual that you must have laying around from your days as an Exile vendor, dismissing the fact that they do offer a 2 year warranty that you know full well they do, very irresponsible. Noticed you didn't challenge my statement about not owning a skiers choice boat and you being on all the forums doing this same thing. So yeah, when you purposely put down one brand that's brought up as an option as being inferior, and try to call me out on my facts, then I guess the head strong former Marine in me comes out. Sorry you feel attacked
Today I learned Exiles come with a two year warranty and an inferiority complex.

*Only when speakers and amp are paired together. Keep up.
Hahaha, kg, that's great...poison, you still drinking away that LSU loss to Troy? Rammer....
I was pulling for Kentucky to beat Florida, hopefully they beat UT..and thanks for your service
What help do you feel i need to extend, above whats already here? He has the pods apart, knows what components he needs and has been quoted a price. Whats left other then placing the order with a local, internet dealer or direct with Wet Sounds? You are presuming quite a bit there. If he doesnt like the help or price he has gotten, im sure he can see that there are other avenues he can take. None of which are me. If he has questions, he can post up a thread or PM me. If Beat feels these components should be warrantied, that a call for the manufacturer to make.Quote:

Right off their site, page 12 http://www.exileaudio.com/store/down...amp-manual.pdf see for yourself.Quote:

Never dismissed it, just clarified the facts. As you pointed out, its 2 yrs when you purchase more equipment. Manual states clearly 1 year for a component. Wet Sounds offers 2 years on EACH component.Quote:

Whats to challenge? I dont own one. In your haste to discredit me over boat ownership, you failed to get the irony in my original reply. This line of questioning about boat ownership is not new, believe me! You are far from the first that has tried it.Quote:
Noticed you didn't challenge my statement about not owning a skiers choice boat
Again, im not going to post info about my business here. In a couple of Google clicks, you and anyone else can find where a business resides and even get a Google earth and street view. Why dont you save face and do that, then put this crap to bed.
Woofers are $200 each and HCLD's are $100 each plus a connector and shipping actually north of $550 directly from Wetsounds. Shop is a legitimate dealer with multiple retail locations that all have installation bays.
Live and learn no big deal, what does suck (in hindsight) is that Exile is located 15 minutes away from my house and Brian is a great guy to deal with.

Mla, save face? You have to be kidding... You finally admitted that you don't own a boat that has to do with this forum. Thank you.
Taco, best of luck, your revs are awesome, hopefully you get them repaired before next season.
Well without them I'll get by with only 4. Lol.
Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
Nice! I bet it pounds...may need to adjust those amps, lol
That's what I don't get, I've run the same setup for so long and never had any issues. I even finished out the year on another pair and never touched the amp. I built the same setup in two different boats, same conservative settings on the same model amps, and this is the first issue I've ever had. Besides hearing loss lol.
Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk
So you are running 6 and 2 blew? Are they paired on the same amp chnl or powered by the same amp? Your issue is likely upstream and may not be the fault of the speakers themselves.
I couldn't imagine 4, much less 6...my wife gives me death stare as it is, lol.
