Wel I think it is a little over board but it rock's. I will post pics soon but I need to buy a new digi cam. I just finished the system in my 180BR, it consists of, a set of 6x9's in the very front of the open bow about 6 inches from the top ( so you get max sound out of them) a set of 6x9's in the rear under the back seat, a set of coax 6.5's under the dash in factory location, 2 set's of 6.5 components on the wake board tower, and 2 10" subs under the dash. I am not that happy with the appearance of the subs where they are but they kick ass!!! The amps are also all mounted up under the dash, I have 2 amps for my mid's and Hi's, and then one amp running the sub's. All using the Directed 0 gauge from battery to distribution block then 4 gauge to amps.

6x9's = Kicker KS6930 3 ways x's 2 sets

Subs = Kicker comp CVX10 1500 watt ea x's 2

6.5 coax = Kicker KS600 2 way 1 set

6.5 component = Kicker KS650.2 x's 2 set's 

4 channel amps = Rockford Fosgate Power 500X  x's 2

Mono block = Kicker ZX1000.1

Peter,

That sounds like great system.  Just food for thought, u mentioned ur not happy with the apperance of the subs, how about relocating them under the rear bench?  I had a custom box (two 10's) wrapped in the carpet from the boat mounted under the bench.  Also have my 4 amps and it fits very clean under there.  Although I think u mentioned u had two 6x9's coming from the bench so it probaly wont be enough room for the amps, but the subs should fit.

Post some pics!!!  ;)

There is only 9 5/8 under the set, unless I was to build a new lower seat base that raised the lower of the seat but then I would have to go nut's. I actually just have 2 small pre fab boxes in there it does not look good but not bad, I am actually thinking I may build a box that holds both the subs on the pass side semi down firing so that if you looked up you would see them but otherwise it would just be like a lower plate for the dash like to hide everything underneath but have the 2 10's staggered under neath the plate. My thing is I have alot of creative time while @ work and the knowledge of HOW but NO real world time to actually put alot of my thoughts and creations to use. I will prolly be buying a new digi cam soon, the dog got it out of the rhino in the Garage (no friken idea how) but she chewed the crap out of it, yeah it was a cheepy to, 400$ 2 month old camera

It goes to get the window's tinted, and wheels powder coated black next week and then I think I will be done with this boat for a while...

Peter,

The boat looks great!!!  Just be careful with the sub under the dash and keep an eye on the speedometer.  If it stops working make sure you check the sub, bc the tube can come out and the water will flood the floor under the drivers dash.

Also, what percentage of tint are you getting?

I don't know, to be honest. It looks as though yours is tinted how do you like that, I have heard people that HATE it and those that LOVE it. I was thinking 13% limo is 5% so it is pretty dark but not blacked out.

Those pics were taken with my cell phone so they really suck but I got it all tuned last night It rails pretty hard I will just have to wait till I take it out prolly this afternoon, to tune the 6.5's on the roll bar, they are the high quality kicker components, so I wanna tune them while they are up not down so I get the proper frequencies. but the added sound from the front is unreal and there is enough room up there to cut anything in. The secret is to tape it all up then draw the one side exactly where it looks good then take about 8 different measurements to make different pilot points to draw your other speaker onto there, then use a dremel with a roto zip type bit, be sure to buy the Dremel brand as the RotoZip is grooved for a different rmp and will burn the blade and the Glass, but just use the Dremel real slow both hands and you can make one single CLEAN cut...I may put one more set of these 6x9's under the rear seat prolly not but maybe...

I really like the tint on boats, and every boat I own will have tinted windows.  Mine is 20%.  When we finished tinting it, I kinda wanted to drop the % down some more, but Im glad I didnt.  I think the 5% would look great, but sometimes I do actually sit on the seat with the bolster down, and the 20% makes it difficult to see small logs, etc in the water.  I do not boat at night, so that is never gonna be an issue for me.

Yeah I am to doing it more for the clean look, I would love the 5% or even the 3% the guy I deal with has, but I would fear missing stuff I need to see. My truck is 3% all the way around with 35% on the windshield it is kinda hard some nights to see but it does not matter you could not see me no matter what inside my truck and I did the VisionX HID conversion on my truck. I actually may put on of the VisionX 50" long L.E.D. Light bars on my wake tower with a 10" facing backwards. thos lights are unreal for night driving offroad so I could only guess what it would do on the water. it is like 2" tall by 53" longx 5' deep so it would sit flat and flush but light up the water like day. I just don't think I would really use the boat at night often enough to anie up 1100$ for that thing.
