tower speakers

[deelan_]

I am on the hunt for a system upgrade. All i currently have is 4 stock speakers that came in my boat and head unit. Im looking for 2 tower speakers and a good amp. I could care less to be the loudest on the lake, I just want some music while we surf. I have been looking at the "bronze package" from roswell. Any suggestions before i order this package?
Thanks

Lots of Exile fans around here. I put Exile in our boat and love it.

Same here! I've done full Exile setups in 3 boats and all are fantastic!

I bought some Exile gear this fall. Brian has been great to work with on the purchase and helping me through the install.

Thanks for all the info... After lots of reading I decided to go with a pair of xm7's and a kicker amp.. Excited to get it set up. Thanks again.

All depends on what you want to spend and how to want to listen (surf distance closer proximity to boat) or (project to wakeboard distances)?
Some popular brands are Exile, Wetsounds, Kicker, and Bullet.
I ran Bullets on my last boat - loved them.
Thinking about going Wetsounds REV 10 on my next tower due to the fact I want to stay with 1 pair, want them to be white cans to match tower, and a 10in will fill the space nicely and provide less piercing at surf distance and still project. If I keep the 770's I'll probably buy a second pair and have to get cans powdercoated. Still undecided.

I might be willing to part with my Bullet 770's if interested you can pm me

Im not sure what the "bronze" package is, so I cannot comment on it specifically or how it may compare to other setups.

For a surf setup, I would suggest either 2 pair of 6.5" on a 2 chnl amp or a single pair of 8" bridged on a quality 4 chnl. The Kicker KM654 in the KMTD double pods paired with the KXM400.2 is a respectable setup. The Wet Sounds Icon-8 bridged on a Kicker KXM400.4 or Arc XDi450.4. A top shelf setup would be the Wet Sounds Rev-10 on a Syn-4. Although Kicker does not yet have their own pods yet, the new KM8 is an impressive speaker in a pod. A single pair bridged on a KXM400.4 or 2 pair on an Acr KS300.2 is awesome.

Can't speak to Roswell. Don't know who makes their equipment or if they do their own. If you don't need huge volume I would consider Kicker and/or Rockford Fosgate. Both are cheaper than the elite brands and sound great. Tower 8" Rockfords can be had for about $400 I believe.

I went with an Exile surf setup this past summer and am extremely pleased. 4 speakers on the tower and then also replaced my 6 cabin speakers. Amp driving the cabins. Amp driving the towers and a ZLD to control the zones and volume.
