If your just wanting regular speakers on the tower, the polk mmc650's work good. I just picked up a set of dual speaker cans on ebay with polk speakers from liquid audio for 480.00. I couldn't assemble a set myself for that, it's a top notch setup, the only thing I dont like is the clamps don't fit real tight so I'm going to modify them. I will have pics tomorrow of the complete install with the amps and everything. If your concerned with speakers the rider can hear though, your going to need some of the pro audio type speakers, like wetsounds and such. but your gonna spend 1200+ on one of those setups.

If you have a monster rack with the plastic inserts it wont work though.

I am running a set of Audioformz loaded with Polk DB675 speakers. I absolutely love them. They are really clear at 70 feet and do the job for me. Check out my Moomba Tower project link for the install.

none that are listed, save your money and get some Wetsounds, they have the new Pro 60s that will be out in May and should be more affordable. I run a pair of the Pro 80s and they are insane. Just today we were laughing at the people dancing to our music on the bank of the lake and they were easily 50 yards away. Nothing else compares.

the 60s are a little smaller and just as good as the 80s and should be cheaper. I have yet to see the prices on them though.

i have 4 Klipsch exterior SA-1 speakers.I made brackets for them and mounted them on a 1/2inch thick x 3 inchw x 50 inches long mounted to the tower.Each set of speakers is driven by a JL Audio E2150 amp.Sounds great and are loud.I got the aluminum from McMaster-Carr.

Also, do you know when the price for the Pro 60's will be out?
Thanks Pickle
