Makia sub

I believe you will find that the OEM tower amp is a Wet Sounds Syn-DX4 bridged to 2 chnls, so its at its capacity. Cant add additional speakers to it.

yeah you are right about the amp, its oversized too, 400w rms, vs the speaker at 300w rms

6ch is same with the sub, 600wrms at amp and 300 at speaker, room for 2 more 6.5's too, not sure where i would mount them.

amps have some room

The bow. Is where the 5th and 6th speaker go. But if you have the upgraded stereo with bow speakers already then not sure.

Not at all too much wattage. 400 is a good spot to be. I run my demo's at 525W rms. Wattage above the rated RMS means the speaker reaches its potential with the amp running at a more conservative setting.

The woofer should be the Revo-10HP which is rated at 400W/800W RMS/PEAK. It will handle the the bridged 600W all day long.

valid points... ocd in me just likes matching numbers.

i still need to get it on the water before i go adding anything anyways...

Hey when you audio guys get your westsound systems tuned like you think they should be, let me know what the amp settings are. I believe I have the same setup with the ported sub, Rev 10 tower, and bow speaker system. I believe mine sounds pretty good. Even good bass out of the tower, but hey I am always up for improvements.

Reviving this on hopes someone smarter than me has got the “best” settings! Any luck?

What all is in the boat now?
6 cabin speakers, 10 sub in ported box under the locker, rev10s on tower ?
What amps are part of the upgrade?
How are things wired?
Do you have zone control, and how is that configured?

Just setting your amps to someone else's settings doesn't guarantee good sound.
Not trying to sound like a jerk but if you can post the answers we can help you much better than say turn gain to 75%.

True. While some settings could be mirrored, the one variable is the actual music source of the donor settings. Tuner, 3.5, USB, SAT or BT? All of these would result in a gain setting that could not end with the best performance when transferred to a different system thats using a different music source.
