'17 Craz Audio Questions.
Guys, Got the Craz on order and had a couple questions that I couldn't find the answers to.
1. We opted for the additional bow speakers with amp but not the subwoofer. If I get a sub to install myself would it be able to run off the same amp. As in if it came from the factory with the sub installed would it have came with a different amp or just tied into the one that came with the bow speakers.
2. Kinda on a budget after dropping money on the boat and was wondering about tower speakers. We have 2 REV10s and a REV410 on our current boat and they are staying with it when we get the new one. Awesome speakers but we never really got the full potential out of them. Don't really wakeboard much anymore just really surf and don't want to kill everybody in the boat with volume. Thinking about Exile Surf speakers or WS ICON8s(are they kind of the same?)
3. I keep seeing tower pods that are built using Wet Sounds 6.5s or similar sized speakers. Are they adequate for surf distance and just basic parking in a cove speakers. Would they do until we can afford better equipment.
4. Finally what kind of amp would be needed to power the any of the above speakers. I haven't really messed with installing amps myself in about 20 years so I know a lot has changed but I'm sure I can get it done.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I am installing a set of matching bow speakers, that I got off Brett, and will be powering those off the deck. I also purchased a kicker 800.5 to run the in boats in the cockpit and a 12" kicker sub in a box under the helm. For the towers I got a pair of the kicker KMT 6.5 inch tower speaker sets that I will be running off another kicker 400.4 amp that I will bridge. I plan to see how all this works first, and if there isn't enough sound from the 6.5 towers I will add another pair of KM8's and another amp for those.

Good idea. I'll just have to adjust the gain to the front speakers so that they aren't out of balance the cockpit speakers

Just measured the KMT67 and they are 3.8Ω each at the speaker. I then attached 2m of 16ga wire to one and remeasured and it's right at 4.1Ω. It should be ok. We'll see!
In retrospect the 400.2 would have been better as it's 2Ω stable for 200W x 2.
