    Didn't really want to go that big as we don't really jam out all the time with lots of people. Are the 10s HLCDs less harsh then previous models like to PRO80s? Just don't want the guys in the boat throwing things at me cause their ears are ringing.
    No comparison. I would always turn my 80's down. Never my pair of 10's. They're a lot smoother. My ears stopped bleeding. Then I got 4 10's and that was completely unnecessary.

    Waiting for one more amp and then I'm done.

    Are those the amps from the factory? If so why would skiers choice put in the non marine amp? Looks good though

    They for sure use the non marine KX200.2 for the tower as well as the DX250.4 for the in-boats, depending on the year.

    Yikes, for warranty alone I would imagine they would want the KXM series

    Like most anything else, its a decision driven by money. A few bucks per boat adds up over a few thousand boats. The failure rate under warranty is more than an acceptable risk to them.

    With that said, are the use of non marine amps in a boat bad? nope, not in all cases. Non marine amps can last for years in a boat. Not all boats though.

    Default '17 Craz Audio Questions.

    I had zero amps when I bought the boat. I purchased all of those new through a friend. I built that board etc all from scratch. Not worried about the one non marine amp. If I am getting water to that point in the boat , then I have other major problems to worry about.
    I had all non marine amps in my last
    Moomba and had zero issues. Would I prefer all marine, sure, but for the price I paid for these, it's not even worth worrying about.

    Its a common misconception that "marine" means waterproof.

    I understand that it's a corrosion issue, but I'm not to worried about it.

    Knu here also for wiring. 12g to the sub. 4g on amps. The tower should already be wired, same with in boats.

    Volt meters next to the switch on a panel above the battery compartment (under the small cushion) ....
