True, although fading to adjust tower vs. boat isn't something you can do on the fly or from the driver's seat like you could with an EQ. And you can get a very nice Clarion EQ for $50.
Another option if you run separate amps is running the amps' remote turn-on wires to the empty "accessory" rocker switch, and powering on/off the tower amp and/or cabin amp. This is free and can be controlled while driving.
