I sat down there for a day, AALLLL DAAYYY, while they installed the sub in the mojo and the work was impressive to watch. It's top notch. I understand why they would not want to tune someone else's work after seeing them in my boat. Especially Exile :p :p

On topic .... there is a good pic of Revs on the aviator tower in the for sale section. Pics of any other setups?

I agree they are really really good at what they do. And I do think wet sounds has the best boat speakers on the market. However, I have a local wet sounds guy that would get my business. That's really all I was saying. Go wet sounds and go local over amazon or some other website if possible.

I did see the Mondo for sale with the Rev10s. He said they mounted up real good on the aviator

Bump.....considering a pair of rev10's or XM9's. Opinions between the two? Also, really interested in mounting options using same locations as factory "flat plates" on Roswell aviator tower. I see Exile has plate inserts for Supra S-bend tower but I don't think these are the same plates on my Moomba. Anyone have info on mounting WS or Exile in these locations?

I've done both, one takes a bit more fab work than the other.

This is a one sided comparison. The rev-10 is a 10" driver and the xm9 is an 8" same as the wet sounds rev-8. if you are considering the rev-10, then go with the larger 10" speaker. if you are considering the xm9, then you need to make the comparison between it and wet sounds rev-8.

Larger speaker = more output than a smaller speaker, even when driven with the same amp wattage. Deeper mid-bass means more balance and smoother sound.

Some additional differences between the 10" Rev-10 and 8" xm9. The hang height between the two is about a half inch difference, even though the Rev-10 has a 2" larger driver. All 3 wet sounds mounting options provide for the speaker and LED leads to be concealed though the clamp, including the swivel mounting option. The TC3-S uses a 6-pin male/female connector for a 100% positive connection with plenty of terminal surface area contact. Swiveling the pod does not involve any method of friction from a spring loaded tab, in order to retain terminal contact. 100% of the pod's weight is held by the clamp and safety retainer and zero load is placed on the speaker and LED leads. Load on the terminal can lead to connection break down in the future. If a terminal is damaged during the hanging of the pod, the connectors and terminals are easily serviceable.

Do the tower speaker mounting plates on yours, look like these? https://forum.moomba.com/showthread....tial-group-buy

I almost positive that's a yes......will check for sure when home to see the boat. Are these still available? I'd be looking at mounts for Rev10s on upper and blank for lower I believe.

So I believe the uppers are the same. However the lowers are different. I believe the lowers are the same as Exile has on Their site for Supra s-bend. Pics coming if I can post.

Looks like the blanks would be those shown here in this thread

Looks like the uppers are the same but the lowers are different.
