I'd be interested to hear from someone who has heard the JL 7.7's you mentioned. That's a larger speaker at a pretty good price. Also consider whether or not you are going to want to upgrade to additional speakers in the next couple years, if so, consider getting some you would like to have 4 of so you can keep these.

I don't mind my speakers not swiveling.

I have the JL7.7's in the Aerial Cans. The look and style sold me initially. I picked them over the JL650's to get a better mid-range. Pretty Pleased with them. Although I am running them with a Kicker 300.2 and think they could use a little more power. I can hear them fairly well when wakeboarding, but do imagine there are many better at projecting all the way back. All in all very pleased for the cost.

Reminder note to anyone with an OZ tower that you must mount them on the sides(near where the Grommets are) or they won't pass the windshield and I/P when folding down the tower.
